Poached eggs

FRESH eggs (burford browns)
White wine vinegar

  1. Place a good amount of vinegar into a pan of almost simmering water. You’re looking for the really small bubbles coming up from the bottom of the pan.

  2. Crack the eggs into the pan and let them do their thing. They should cook for around 2.5 minutes before they’re ready.
