Mastering the art of perfectly poached eggs is a fundamental skill for any home cook. This diabetes-friendly dish relies on using the freshest possible eggs to ensure the whites stay compact and delicate. By adding a touch of vinegar to the water and keeping it at a bare simmer, you create a gentle environment that yields a soft, opaque white and a beautifully rich, golden runny yolk.
As a high-protein breakfast or light lunch option, these poached eggs are incredibly versatile and nutritious. They pair beautifully with wholemeal toast, sautéed spinach, or grilled tomatoes for a balanced meal that supports steady energy levels. This simple technique avoids the need for added fats, making it a healthy choice for anyone looking to enjoy a classic, café-style brunch at home.

Ingredients for Poached Eggs
1 teaspoon vinegar
4 very fresh large eggs
How to make Poached Eggs
Combine 1 1/2 inches water (about 1.9L ) and vinegar in a wide 3-quart heavy saucepan (preferably about 9 inches wide) and bring to a simmer.
Break 1 egg into a small bowl or cup and slide egg into water. Repeat with each remaining egg, spacing them evenly in saucepan, and poach at a bare simmer until whites are firm and yolks are still runny, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer eggs as cooked to paper towels using a slotted spoon.
