Farm-Fresh Poached Eggs
Hello friends, welcome to Eggs Recipe. Today we are going to make Farm-Fresh Poached Eggs.
Like the title says, these are farm-fresh eggs. The egg white on farm-fresh eggs is not watery, which leads to a cleaner looking poached egg.
While this will work for store-bought eggs, you will need to strain off the excess liquid using a fine-mesh sieve.

Ingredients for making Farm-Fresh Poached Eggs
- 4 cups water
- 2 large Egg, whole, raw, fresh
- salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
Directions for making Farm-Fresh Poached Eggs
- Fill a wide pan with 4 cups water (about 3 inches deep) and bring to a boil over high heat. Once the water boils, turn the heat down to just below a simmer (there should be no bubbles).
- Crack eggs open into a ramekin. Transfer eggs into a soup ladle, and working quickly and gently, angle your soup ladle so the eggs slip into the water.
- Set a timer for 3 minutes. After 3 minutes, use a slotted spoon to lift your eggs from the water, one at a time. Give each a little jiggle to check that the whites are set.
- If not, dip back in for 30 seconds more. Remove and serve immediately with salt and pepper. Your yolk should run when pierced with a fork.
