Easiest way to poach an egg
What’s the easiest way to make a poached egg? We thought it would be the new egg poacher we bought… But actually the trick Lionel saw on Facebook works the best. You have to experiment a bit with timing on your microwave, but once you master it, this is probably the quickest and easiest way to make a poached egg…. (Let me know if you have an easier way.)
1. Break an egg into a mug.
2. Cover the raw egg with some cold water.
3. Microwave on high for 1 minute.
4. Remove from microwave and allow to stand for 1 minute.
5. Scoop poached egg out with a tablespoon.
…and you have a poached egg!

On the subject of eggs. Here is a good tip especially when you are working with a lot of eggs and have to separate them. Get a squeeze bottle (1liter coke plastic bottle) รขยย remove lid of course. Place bottle neck near egg yellow and squeeze and release. Woops the egg yellow will be swallowed into the bottle leaving the white behind. Magic hey!
