Poached Egg

1. 1

   Add 1 teaspoon unflavored vinegar and 2 tablespoons salt to water.

2. 2

   Bring to a rapid boil, and lower the flame until the water merely shivers.

3. 3

   With a wooden spoon, stir water in a rotary movement so as to form a whirlpool in the center.

4. 4

   Crack an absolutely 100 percent fresh egg into a cup.

5. 5

   Lift the cup with your left hand while you are stirring with your right, and in a simultaneous motion, stop stirring and slide the egg into the very center of the whirlpool.

6. 6

   Cook 3 1/2 to 4 minutes, slightly longer for a harder yolk.
