poached-eggs

This is a fun spin on eggs. Growing up, my Grandmother really loved poached eggs. I didn’t know to call them that but she wanted her eggs cooked with a splash of water and a little butter. You’d get the water and butter warmed in the pan before adding the eggs. She wanted a pinch of salt and pepper and after about 2 minutes you had to cover it.

Years later, I learned how to poach an egg by dropping them into boiling water. When cooking for larger groups, I like to finish the eggs in a muffin pan in the oven. Season with cheese, salt & pepper, then keep at a low warming oven.

More dirty details on that later. =)
