The Trick to Poaching a Perfectly Round Egg - Kitchen Conundrums with Thomas Joseph

[@nicole.t04]

I'm so proud of myself!!!!! I made this today and it turned out really nicely. Btw, I'm only twelve. This was a lot easier when you explained it.

[@misskwannie]

14 now ig

[@williamoverly1617]

First, you have to find a perfectly round egg. Once you do, make sure it wasn't pitched in the major leagues.

[@tony5535]

Good for you! Keep cookin Kid!

[@ryandale2365]

Wow. 12 and mastered the poached egg. I spend my life in the kitchen, am nearly 40 and still can't get it right. Well done you 😊

[@shivans57]

I did it too. It was picture perfect

[@MikiSunshine]

I've seen so many of these videos on poaching eggs and this one not only explains about separating the loose white from the rest of the albumen, but also why to add salt and vinegar and how to get the white to encase the egg. Great video!

[@alexandresobreiramartins9461]

Yes. Heston Blumenthal had already mentioned straining the white, but nothing about either the vinegar or the salt. That was really very useful.

[@DurgaswaroopPerla]

He doesn't actually tell why he used the vinegar.

[@JJ-pi4zj]

@@DurgaswaroopPerla You are right. And for those wondering; IIRC, Jacques Pepin says it's to help solidify the white.

[@andykrankus5108]

@@alexandresobreiramartins9461 Heston claims that you don't need either of those.

[@marcografvonpartagas]

You literally don’t have to do any of those things to make perfectly cooked poached eggs… 🙄

[@Species710]

I appreciate when instructions tell why as well as how. This is a great tutorial video.

[@angbeebee1]

This is the best demonstration on how to do perfect poached egg I've seen on youtube so far! Thank you so much.

[@musaraxa1827]

Best video for poached egg on you tube.

Musa RaXa I disagree. Too many steps makes longer work check out Alton Brown's poached eggs.

@Wayne lawson is a sad pathetic hateful little boy. Grow up.

[@norain31]

i been cooking all my life and i raise chickens . Blown away about just learning about the duel egg white ? such good knowledge . A person can tweek this to suit thier own needs . and throw away those poaching cups . Thankyou thomas !

[@LGCblessed]

Excellent! : ) I like to hear about the science behind every step! Thanks!

[@nickySe7en666]

I made eggs Benedict for the first time and checked kitchen conundrums first to get help with the poached egg. The conundrums video series hasn't let me down yet. Thomas always gives right to the point expert tips and explains why he's doing everything as he's showing you. I have many cooking channels saved, but when I want to know how to do something exactly the correct way, I always come to kitchen conundrums for answers, and I always end up with a great meal. thank you Thomas Joseph.

[@anneteele6436]

I have been eating a poached egg for days on end now trying to get a perfectly oval (or almost) poached egg using several methods and this one was a charm! I stumbled upon your site Thanks, Mr. Joseph! You explained the method very well and I am thrilled!

[@stephenowens8705]

Best method I have ever tried for poaching perfection. Used the extra white as an egg-wash.

[@v.mollner6911]

HOW - and - WHY, greatly appreciated!

[@choonk99]

This is so amazing. Just used the straining method and it makes a huge difference! Came out with perfectly round poached eggs. Thank you!

[@BriannaSheck22]

Just made my first poached eggs based off of the instructions in this video and they turned out beautifully! Thank you for this great video!

[@phepoaboard6168]

Thanks Thomas!

[@garrisongunter7019]

Great tutorial thanks. We also bring them up to room temp by putting eggs (in shell) into hot tap water for 5 mins. Would be nice to see how you would poach say- a dozen at once.

[@s.b.2921]

The real question is why are you refrigerating your farm fresh eggs? If the eggs arent washed, they dont need to go in the fridge. Look up: egg bloom

[@MP_Soundbox]

made blackstone Bennys this morning, perfectly! Thankyou!

[@loriorbobkallio1982]

Thank you. That was an excellent lesson and I'm not even nervous about it now.

[@viniciuslisboa7630]

Oi

[@GolDreadLocks]

Thank you! For the first time -in my life! -I actually made them perfectly! When I had attempted this before, they broke in the water, and oh wow! not a pretty sight! so I gave up, but now they turned out perfect!! Yay!

[@winter2625]

Great tips!

[@Hunnie_B]

OMG.......I love poached eggs, thank you so much Thomas, all along I was cooking mine the wrong way. A vortex, who knew ? It's Sunday tomorrow...... guess what I'm cooking for brunch. I have a son who is allergic to dairy products, including eggs, I never leave him left out, so I will make him one of his fav dishes. Thanks so much for sharing, take care.

[@jessaustin05]

[@keeganbronte8737]

This video saved my life!

[@juliejackson8920]

Thankyou! Brilliant video just a question, when pre-doing the poached eggs and warming them up in the same water should you have it on boil again to heat them properly? Thankyou Julie

[@epieorchid]

Wow never would have thought to create a whirlpool. Thx!!

[@lynngilman1402]

[@fabiolave07]

[@jacobramirez4586]

Like the video , good explanation

[@moonyponds]

Thank you so much!

[@kitchenlady948]

Should I keep the flame on? Great video!

[@sarahb9386]

Amazing! Thanks for this video!

[@glennlopez6772]

Good research! Consider the likelihood of getting farm fresh eggs and yet having to discard the albumin which has thinned out and which is protein. Its like over kill. For fried eggs I blend the albumin with a fork without separating the yolk. Not possible to get it perfectly without breaking the yolk, the end result gives a lace like and picture perfect sunny side up fried egg without sticking to the pan.

[@pooniarya8980]

very nice

[@luciannicholson8994]

I'll try this version. Lately I've learned a great way by putting the uncracked eggs into a pot off boiling water for 12 seconds and then cracking them into a bowl and poaching them in the water. No need to add vinegar. They come out perfect.

[@reviveher7476]

Never knew about the two types of white. Game changer. Mind blown.

[@unseenmasamune7007]

finally .. a actual chef on youtube... unlike chef chemical steps ... fooltube i mean foodtube..

[@xxkasperxx]

Great video Thomas ....I just subscribed !

[@videox222ify]

I have tried to poach an egg so many times in the traditional way and I just cannot get it right. I finally bought one of those m/w egg poachers and it works pretty well. I am going to try this method though because I would like to be able to make it the real way.
