Comment préparer

1
Fill a wide saucepan with the water and vinegar, then bring it to a simmer over medium heat. The surface should show small, steady bubbles, not a rolling boil.
2
Toast the bread until crisp and golden, then spread it with the butter and arrange it on two plates.
3
Crack one egg into a small cup. Stir the simmering water once to create a gentle whirlpool, then slide the egg into the center. Repeat with the remaining eggs, working in batches if the pan feels crowded.

4
Poach the eggs for 3–4 minutes, keeping the water at a bare simmer, until the whites are opaque and set while the yolks still feel soft when lightly nudged.
5
Lift each egg out with a slotted spoon and briefly drain it on a clean towel or paper towel. Season with a little of the salt and pepper.
6
Place two poached eggs on each plate of toast, scatter with the chives, and serve immediately while the yolks are warm and flowing.

Pourquoi cette recette fonctionne

A small amount of vinegar helps the egg white set quickly, while a quiet simmer cooks the white without toughening the yolk. Toast provides contrast and catches the rich, flowing center.

Conservation et réchauffage

Comment la conserver

Poached eggs are best served immediately. If necessary, cool them in ice water, refrigerate in a covered container for up to 1 day, and use promptly.

Comment la réchauffer

Reheat refrigerated poached eggs in 75–80°C water for 1–2 minutes until warmed through; do not microwave, as the yolks may burst.
