Subject: RE: BS: How to poach an egg
Do not use vinegar. Two things: if you use very fresh eggs the vinegar won't do anything that the gently simmering water won't. And I want my eggs to taste purely of eggs. I don't want even the faintest vinegary taste. When you go to the supermarket, reach right to the back to get the eggs with the longest sell-by date. Don't tell me that you must use vinegar until you've tried it without with very fresh eggs. I would never lie to you.
