[horrorshowmalchick]

[MrAmccombs]

I agree that the music is annoying, I could not finish watching the presentation because of it. :(

[AZende2002]

Remember he is a chef instructor. This is to help explain the technical side of poaching eggs so that student chefs understand why this or that is happening.

[alfier288]

nicely done chef  thankyou for sharing your skills

[SurvivingOklahoma]

Did he just stir the water and throw away half of the egg!!!???

Chef, this isn't egg drop soup!

[Tommyrazzle]

Cool. Thankyou for the tips. I'm off to try it now.

[luticia]

Wow,I've never seen eggs like these.

[monaiag]

yo your egg whites look like shit homie! check this lady out. youtube.com/watch?v=Bxvxwk3TFP­Q

[Landotter1]

Vinegar.... So many years and no vinegar. I coul;d have been so much more successful.... Thanks for telling us.... Will try them next time I cook eggs!!!

[ndcoach29]

@Landotter1 ikr, i have destroyed so many eggs trying to get it right! LOL

[nicholesnow]

@Landotter1 Vinegar is also good when you're hard boiling eggs. It makes the shell easier to remove. ;)

[Landotter1]

@nicholesnow thank-ya, thank-ya!!!

[SunshineDawnGirl]

WOW. never saw that before. that was cool. :D

thanx! ^^

[richythepianoman]

coagulate

[0penboat]

When he started out talking I thought he was going to say "I don't know what to do with my hands?"

[PlanesofExistence]

LOL HE SO DID :)

[ValentineSn0w]

ha ha this is so helpful since believe it or not, one of my practical exam for my chef's course is to poach an egg xD

[jackinla8]

he made this simple dish 1000% more complicated...ridiculous.

[Gypscrew]

@jackinla8 I was just thinking that when I watched this. It's not that hard to poach an egg, also you do NOT need vinegar. LOL on top of that the fact you put it in ice water, then warm water, etc etc is meaningless. Sure, if you want it a bit more firm, put it in ice water for a really really short time, but I have made them without doing that.  I think it's mainly pretentious restaurant chefs that try to make it pretty looking.

[andrewvillanelle]

the real CIA

[dazmag44]

did somebody say coagulate?

[Svendip]

It would be good if he had cut one open to show us his idea of what the consistencey should be like.

[mrmatymoo]

Celcius of course. Get out of the dark ages and start using the metric system.

[natenorrish]

@mrmatymoo water boils at 100 C, and the video clearly shows the water is not boiling... so it has to be Fahrenheit ... The Americans generally use Fahrenheit, I don't think they're in the dark ages.

[GovIntel]

@natenorrish hahahah thanks friend :)

[gino066]

the world has enough lawyers, and doctors, and auto mechanics and engineers.. the world needs more egg poachers....  ty u chef. u make the world a better place.

[DCFunBud]

The music was really annoying, otherwise, it was a good presentation.

[Psykadelic]

@kewlblue16 It's Celsius smarty pants.

[jeanmunn]

Wow !!! all this fucking crap to show some cunts out there how to poach a fucking egg,,,,,,

[mrmatymoo]

Water boils at 100 degrees. Get with the fucking times yanks.

[Abrin19]

@mrmatymoo What are you talking about? =) celsius or farenheit?

[UnderVanillaSkies]

Thank you. When mine aways float to the top, I think I have done something wrong and worry about the eggs cooking properly. Now, I know otherwise.

[212flaco]

Well explained.  Thanks.

[HigherPlanes]

What's the process for a hard poached egg? My wife cringes in the presence of runny egg yolks.

[Jayfoxpox]

cook it longer or you might as well do a hard boiled egg

[HigherPlanes]

Makes sense. thanks mate.

[bagelboi66]

He makes it look so easy! I've tried for many years to cook perfect poached eggs. My quest has taken me to farmyards and farmers markets for the freshest possible eggs. I found though that no matter how fresh they are, I still screw up the poaching process somehow.

I finally gave up and bought a set of those perforated metal egg poachers that hold the egg as it sets. They never fail, the eggs can be less than fresh, and I don't have to add vinegar either.

The thermometer idea is brilliant.

[reneecalling]

You just need to practice. Just bring the water to a boil. I crack the eggs directly into the salted water, using 2 eggs. Wait a few minutes and when I feel the eggs have set I pour the water into a collander in the sink and remove the poached eggs. Try it a few times and you find you won't need your metal egg poacher. It's really what you're most comfortable with.

[mvbc0101]

When you put them back in the water to make sure they are hot, do you put them back in at 165-170 degree?

[Roccote57]

@mvbc0101  no! Put them in 200 deg for 45 sec

[shadow0mega]

@mvbc0101 to reheat it yes you do but not for too long or else it'll just be a boiled egg xD

[BuckeyeChef]

Thanks Chef.
