My wonderful husband bought me an egg poacher!! Now I know to many of you this sounds like a strange gift, and honestly, I have no idea what made him think of it when he did, but I LOVE poached eggs. They are my favorite! None of this boiling, scrambling, omelet crap, just give me a plain old poached egg on wheat toast.I must say though, poaching isn't an easy task. It's not exactly an item your going to find on the menu at the Waffle House, but every once in a while when we venture out for breakfast, I'll find a chef who knows what he/she is doing. As for my kitchen, the poacher is a wonderful addition. I've been making them in a sauce pan, using salt and vinegar- the two man problems there being that I never get the water to vinegar ratio right, and the egg white never stays "round and pretty." But now, thanks to my 9 inch, stainless steel, Belgium poacher my eggs come out perfect every time!
Here's to hoping all of you find as much joy in your cooking utensils as I do!
