Can confirm. Just heard the hens singing their egg laying songs and grabbed one that was still warm!
😂
Hahahahaha
for real fresh eggs are so much better then the buyed ones
I surgically remove my eggs for freshness.
I just cook there chicken then remove the egg and throw the chicken away
@@bentkent9511why did you throw the chicken away? You can just push it
I choke my chicken and buy my eggs from the supermarket.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
lol @@victoralley708
Putting vinegar in the water really does not make the eggs taste like vinegar. You would have to use vast amounts of vinegar to make any change in the taste at all
Agreed
Yup I put tsp of vinegar and you don't taste it, at all
It 100% adds flavor but at the ppm it’s very subtle and savory.
Or pickle it in vinegar
Ah no. You do taste it. I tried it.
"The only way to poach an egg is if you have really really fresh eggs." Ah yes, this is the best method thank you
He means as opposed to old eggs that have been sat around. Not hard to figure out, is it?
@@johnmartinez7440no he means eggs straight out of the hen
Straight out of the hens cooch is best mate x
😂😂😂😂😂😂
I like my eggs that fresh. I boil the whole chicken 😋
Amazing. The brilliance of simplicity is not recognized enough.
Thank you for simplifying this for me! My grandmother always made soft poached eggs & I haven't been able to do it because I was "boiling" them.
Asks why you put vinegar in the water then answers himself 😂
The other choice is lemon juice . Adds a nice tang if you like them that way , worth a try , same with vinegar
@@UserUser-ww2nju can put any acitic acid in it not only vinegar & lemon juice 😅
@user-tl4jg7rk8v😢
It's a rhetorical question methinks
@@numberfork why’d he answer it then?
"bring it to the boil, that means there's bubbles"
thank you jamie.
So glad he taught me that
Instructions unclear: boiled toast in vinegar with a dash of egg
Thought he was meant to be an experienced cook. They do not taste of vinegar if added to the water.
And the reason for adding? Try adding salt (alkaline) and see what that does (spoiler alert, it makes egg white soup) vinegar does the opposite due to its acidity.
Always love the way you explain ❤
Thanks for making a clear straightforward video.
I like to use lemon juice... its very tasty and does the same job as the vinegar. 1 tbsp per full pot of water does the trick...wish i had some hens... Thanks for the tips..cheers..julie in canada.
What I know is that if you strain the watery part of the egg when you crack it open with a fine mesh sift you don't get the stringy parts that cloud the water. It should not taste like vinager it should be diluted in the water half tablespoon at most in two liters of water plus the salt.
Never add salt to any egg before it’s cooked 😂 starts breaking it down , literally cooking 101 😂
two litres of water to boil an egg???
You only need 2 inches of water
Looks delicious 😋 thanks
Thank you, nice and easily explained. Even laying off the vinegar.
Thanks for that jamie ive been poaching my eggs in stella artois i wo dered why they were all over the place ill try WATER from now on
You can poach any egg, doesnt have to be fresh. Of course, dont poach a rotten egg, but yknow.
The vinegar is not to firm it up, although that might be part of it. The vinegar is when you’re boiling it, cuz you can boil it an egg is a flexible thing, sometimes the protein in the egg whites will create foam at the edges of the pot. The vinegar just stops that from happening.
"Of course, don't poach a rotten egg..."
😂😂😂🤣😅😅😅💀
Thanks for the tip on the vinegar. I actually thought it was to prevent the eggs from cracking 🤷🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️😁
Yes, it stops the foam because it firms up the egg white
Thanks again Jamie
Eggs do not have to be fresh, put the egg in a strainer and let the water drain and into the hot water.
In the UK and Europe eggs are not refrigerated,
So Americans let your egg be room temperature.
PS : a splash of vinegar holds the egg together, with no vinegar taste.
faxs bro u can also do vortex and drop it in the centre it gives it a better looking shape and if u dont have that fresh eggs it will also help with shape
In The Netherlands eggs are refrigerated
Or just put a little vinegar in the water because it doesn't make the eggs taste like vinegar at all and does a splendid job so you don't have to waste any of the egg
So take the pan of the heat after its boild do you return to heat non boil or just leave it on the side and leave the eggs for 3 minutes
You only need a little vinegar so no, you can’t taste the vinegar.
Why you need to put vinegar? Can you tell me the benefit?
@@Anonym9x helps keep the yoke and egg together, therefor makin it easier to not mess it up
Useless
İt's my good meal for breakfast 🥞🍳 shief 🧑🍳 before starting my day ❤❤❤😊
Another only way to poach an egg
I love you Jamie. I’ve been watching your shows in UA-cam for years years now and I think you’re just fantastic. And your recipes are great also. Especially your cooking techniques and education is always helpful. Thank you very much for all the work that you do and I look forward to seeing you on the next one.
I like mine semi poached, on frying pan, butter med heat add 2 tbs. water and cover with see thru lid.
Thank you Mr Oliver
If you can't find fresh eggs (like most people), then a spot of white vinegar will be just fine and won't make the egg taste like vinegar.. if you're lucky enough to have access to fresh eggs, this works great 👍
I want everyone trying to poach eggs to know this:
You can do it using just hot water, no vinegar, vortex, nothing.
You'll make perfectly poached eggs every time even if you have never done it.
Made a brief 1 min video on my channel if you're interested.
My favourite chef .. I wouldn’t eat Ramsies food cause I think it’s packed with yelling energy
That’s what makes it taste good. He cooks the food from his sheer anger and not heat.
You've literally said yourself to use a little vinegar for eggs that are less fresh.
Where's the chili jam 😂?Are you hearing boiling? I hear my ancestors crying 😂
Vinegar adds wonderful flavor to poached eggs.
I really like how you cook Italian food ha ha ha ha lol 😂
Thanks Jamie!
A little bit of vinegar in the water does not make your eggs taste like vinegar at all but does a splendid job at making your eggs look wonderful when they're done poaching. No runny white bits around the edges at all.
Makes everything look so simple he’s an absolute natural The Best chef on the planet
Vinegar is delicious
Vinegar in the water is a trick for people in restaurants or if you’re cooking a large amount of poached eggs when you only have to cook four eggs or less, it makes it so much easier to look like you know what you’re doing. Cheers 🍻
I just did it. Drop the egg into a sieve first. Roll it around till all the loose white drips through. That way, when you cook the egg the water will be totally clean after, no straggly bits. And the egg will be perfectly formed in a lovely shape. It totally makes the difference. No bubbles in the water. Table salt and pepper at the ready. Drop onto a ready buttered crumpet. Personally l like a trace of vineger, you can barely taste it anyway.
I’ve never been able to make good poached eggs. Tried this this morning and they were perfect. Thanks Jamie! 🥚
Where did you find eggs?! Haven't seen them in weeks 😂
They have plenty in California for $8 a dozen
Crack the eggs into a cup of 1/2 vinegar 1/2 water and let it sit for a few minutes. It will develop a coating around it that helps it cook more evenly and safely without risking a rupture. You don't need to cook the egg in vinegar..
I’m allergic to eggs, but it’s good to know how to cook them for others. Thanks Jamie! 🌹
Eggs contains allergen???
Never tasted my poached egg like vinegar because alittle bit of vinegar 🙄
Agreed. If you search UA-cam for how to poach eggs, you will find a clip from Epicurious which indicates leaving the raw egg in a 50% vinegar solution for a couple of minutes. It works like magic. ZERO vinegar taste. He was arrogant on this one.
@@azzalos thanks mate! Arrogant describes his attitude pretty well
@@azzalos Except the betraying after taste is always there for those of us who hate it. So who's arrogant?
Love it ❤
The Homelander of cooking
Check your privilege
Not every home can get really²⁰⁰ fresh eggs for poaching
So don't say this is the ONLY way and discount poached eggs that use regular ones
Also, as long as you don't add kiloliters of vinegar the egg won't taste like it
It may have just a teeny tiny hint of vinegar taste if you put the right amount but that makes it taste awesome
I've never added vinegar to poaching water. I just stir it to create a gentle vortex then drop the egg in. The spinning keeps the egg in the centre while it cooks
Thanks for describing what boiling water looks like.
This guy is 🔥he said hello to me once at my local sobeys. Class act 💯
Perfect 👍
Well this method is much more appealing than the one you posted for cooking and egg in plastic wrap
I spin the water around like a whirlpool so the egg spins on itself, works fine.
I’m salivating!!! ❤
I like the vinegar as it removes the “fresh” taste. I find it enhances the taste.
Thanks Jamie. I’ve been scourging around the internet looking for it the vinegar was essential or not. Don’t know why I didn’t come here first
He's wrong and explained why he's wrong. He's also lying about it tasting it of vinegar
@@monkeytennis8861 it worked fine for me
i love this guy))
Finally a fab chef who doesn't add vinegar to the water. I hate the vinegar taste in eggs.
im guessing you dont like red beet eggs?
@@TheSighphiguy I like beet red eggs, my daughter makes them but I don't think she uses vinegar.
So, you bring the water to a boil, remove it from the flame, gently place the egg into the water..
swirl.
No need for fresh eggs, pop the egg into a fine mesh sieve to get rid of the watery liquid from the egg and it will be perfect.
Why does everybody slice the egg open at the end? I am the one eating it and I am the one who gets when the egg is opened!
I've started doing mine like this and to be honest pretty dam good 👍
I tried this, and it didn't work. It's probably because I don't have that accent.
I'll carry on with my egg poacher, thanks
The only way to poach the perfect egg is to steal it from a perfect bird's nest
Tried it this morning and it worked perfectly thanks Jamie 👍
I’ll give this a go first I was about to buy a special poached egg pan.
Edit: Tried it with not so fresh eggs still worked out! lol. I put it on a very low heat for 4 minutes, scooped it out with my soup ladle and into a small colander to drain first then slid it onto my toast 😅
Thnx
Egg lover 🥚 here Ill have try this 😋👍
I doesn't just taste like vinegar, the proteins are denatured. I mostly eat eggs because of the proteins.
Can't you just fry it? The outside cooks then flip it over before the yolk cooks.
That’s like asking if can you fry a chicken instead of poaching. Sure, but it wouldn’t be poached
As much as I like easy over eggs, poached eggs are different. The ones in the video don't look like proper poached eggs though.
Asking why put vinegar in as if absolutely no reason...then answers question with valid reason 😂😂
You can use salt in the water instead of vinegar. Lovely Jovely.
That's all very well, but how do you boil them - do I have to buy Delia Smith's book?
Okay thank you for this video! I was getting so disappointed at the other videos all telling me to put vinegar and me thinking, 🤢 but it will taste like vinegar!
How do u dry it so toast not soggy?
Kitchen towel underneath it absorbs the water before you plate them up.
No, you can poach any egg. Mix ¼ cup of white vinegar with 1 cup water in a shallow bowl. Crack eggs into bowl. Wait 10 minutes. The acid will start to set the white. Decant with vinegar solution into simmering water. Egg is done when whites just wiggle around yolk. Drain with slotted spoon and a dry towel under the spoon.
some people put water on their fried rice
And chilli jam.
Yes youre right. Fresh
The only way to get perfect poached eggs is to use fresh eggs because older eggs will be a bit watery and you'll have to strain them out longer
finally , thank you for skip the vinegar ❤
Awesome thanks 😊I have plenty fresh eggs
This man likes to hear himself
Really Fresh Eggs..and all this time I thought it was my technique..darn it🤦🏿♂️
I love the taste that the vinegar water gives the egg it’s not about the firmness
Thanks for the descriptive method….. and this guy is a celebrity chef!
When ever I try poached eggs this way the yolk doesn’t become fully enclosed in egg white. Obviously I’m doing something wrong. After watching this video I am still none the wiser.
Didn’t know Ricky Gervais cooked
I love u Jamie
If you need anything undercooked just ask a Brit. 😂
THE VINEGAR TASTE COMES FROM THE HOT SAUCE. 😊
Held my hand under the hen all day to make absolute sure it wouldnt touch the ground for maximum freshness
They look like mini water-cooked sunny side up eggs. Poached eggs should be little balls.
Adding little salt to the water? 🤔
Not necessary! You can add salt later (directly to the egg)
Adding salt to the water will break down the albumin, that's why vinegar IS recommended. It keeps the egg 'together'.
I like a little tang of vinegar with my poach
The only one ingredient cooked properly by the British, the egg 😂
Where do I find the recipe for these peach‘s enchiladas?
Properly 1 of many so called celebrities who've made millions out of mugs
all the videos i watched had vinegar😂 im so glad u made that comment i would have used it and wasted an egg lmao
I like the vinegar taste you get from some restaurants honestly, it gives a little kick
Why does the thumbnail have to have Jamie's O face though?
Needs chill jam
