“Lost eggs” is another name in Germany, after all, the eggs without shells are cooked in vinegar water no longer boiling below the boiling point. By the way, you can poach not only chicken eggs, but also quail eggs. In the article I will introduce you to the technically correct procedure and give you already published recipe ideas.
Wish you now a lot of fun and good luck!
Step 1: Prepare Poaching
You need very fresh eggs. The yolk should have a powerful color and its standing, fresh form. Boil water in a pot and add a little vinegar. In addition, provide a skimmer.
