How to cook poached eggs. Delicious food in a hurry

Scientists have long agreed with the view that the egg is a completely unique and extremely useful food product. It is rich in protein and is just a real storehouse of lots of vitamins and valuable micronutrients. It is not for nothing that in the West, where people have long tried to adhere to the principles of rational nutrition, it is customary to start each new day with a dish of eggs. They are cooked in different ways. But in any case, even the smallest egg can give a big charge of energy to the human body for the entire coming day. In cooking, many options for the preparation of this product are known. It can be boiled, fried, smoked, and also used as one of the main ingredients for preparing more complex dishes.

Recently, egg poached, cooked in French manners, that is, without shells, is very popular. There is a certain technique that clearly explains in stages how to cook poached eggs. It should be noted that there are two ways of cooking eggs in this way: with and without vinegar. Let's consider both variants.

How to cook poached eggs without vinegar ?

First you need to take necessary food and dishes: raw chicken eggs, water, frying pan, salt, spoon-noisy, paper towels. Now the process begins:

1. Pour cold water into the frying pan. Bring it to a boil.
2. As soon as there are hardly noticeable bubbles on the bottom, immediately it is necessary to accurately break the egg into water.
3. Allow the product to pour for 1-2 minutes on low heat, then remove the frying pan from the heat and leave the eggs in it for 10 minutes until it cools completely.
4. Remove the eggs from the water and dry with a paper towel.

As a result, you will get small dense balls of egg white, inside of which is a soft, tender yolk.

How to cook poached eggs with vinegar?

Necessary products and tools: raw eggs, water, 2 tablespoons of 6% vinegar, salt, saucepan, spoon-spoon, saucer (or bowl).

Cooking is as follows:

1. In a saucepan pour water so that its level was not more than 5-6 centimeters from the bottom.
2. We bring it to a boil, and then reduce the fire.
3. Add the vinegar to the pan.
4. In the saucer (or bowl), break the egg.
5. Slowly pour the contents into hot water.
6. Spoon carefully "correct" the protein so that it does not spread in the water.
7. We let the product paw for 3-4 minutes. It all depends on how mild you want to see the yolk.
8. We take out the ready-made eggs and put them into cold water to prevent the weathering of the surface.

Both options are absolutely simple, and everyone can decide how to cook the poached eggs for breakfast: with or without vinegar.

If you look closely, then in every national cuisine you can find dishes from eggs. This is due to the generally accepted predilections and habits of people living in a particular country. For example, the same English poached eggs after cooking are dried in an oven on toast.

Americans also stack the ready-made white marbles on the dried tomato slices.

In addition, there are other ways of cooking eggs. Take, for example, the simplest omelet. To prepare it you will need: 4 eggs, half a glass of milk, 2 tablespoons of sunflower oil, a pinch of salt, 40 grams of hard cheese and a bunch of greens.

Cooking method:

1. Eggs beat well with a mixer or whisk with milk and salt.
2. In a frying pan heat the oil and pour on it the egg mixture. Fry for 4-5 minutes.
3. At this time, chop the greens with a knife and grate the cheese.
4. Omelet, brought to half-ready, sprinkle with cheese and leave on fire for another 2-3 minutes.
5. Once the cheese melts, the dish can be removed from the fire and spread on a plate. Before serving, sprinkle with greens.

The French act a little differently. They add a little flour to the egg mass and fry until ready. Then sprinkle the omelet with cheese and fold in half. Between the hot omelet layers, the cheese melts and an appetizing multi-layered breakfast is obtained. And the Spaniards prepare this dish with potatoes and onions.

Some mistakenly believe that cooking eggs does not require special skills and skills. Quite the contrary. The fact is that this product is prepared quickly enough. If you make a mistake, then in the end you are unlikely to get the desired dish.

For a quick breakfast or light dinner, you can try to cook coconut eggs. Here you will need: eggs, fried mushrooms, ham, tomatoes and cheese. And you need to cook like this:

1. In special cups (coconut bottles) we put the products in the following sequence: ham - mushrooms - tomatoes - egg.
2. In a large container, pour water and put it on the stove. We put the coconut in the water so that they do not reach the edge of the cups. Cover the top with saucers.
3. After 20 minutes, the protein must be brewed, and the yolk will remain liquid.
4. The dish is served to the table in the same container. Beforehand, you can lightly sprinkle it with grated cheese.

It turns out quite a high-calorie and very tasty food. Bulgakov also spoke enthusiastically about him in his work "Master and Margarita". In fact, it is worthy of all praise. However, any of the dishes offered is worth trying at least once.
