Ingredients
For the Poached Eggs
- 4 Large Eggs
- 2 cup Water

Instructions
Prepare the Poaching Water
- Bring 2 cups of water to a gentle simmer in a saucepan. Add 1.5 teaspoons of salt and 1 tablespoon of white vinegar.
Poach the Eggs
- Crack each egg individually into a small bowl. Gently swirl the water in the saucepan to create a vortex. Carefully pour each egg into the swirling water, keeping the yolk intact.
Cook the Eggs
- Poach for 5-7 minutes, or until the whites are set and the yolks are cooked to your liking. For a runny yolk, cook for a shorter time.
Remove and Serve
- Carefully remove the poached eggs with a slotted spoon. Place on a plate.
Create the Smiley Face

Recipe Notes
Expert Tips for Perfect Poached Eggs
- Use fresh eggs: Fresher eggs hold their shape better during poaching.
- Don't overcrowd the pan: Poach eggs one or two at a time for best results.
- Adjust cooking time: Cooking time depends on your desired yolk consistency. Experiment to find your preference.
- Get creative with toppings: Beyond chocolate syrup, try adding other garnishes like fresh herbs, microgreens, or a sprinkle of paprika for extra flavor and visual appeal.
