The ultimate luxury food
Our special service for chefs and cordon bleu cooks will ensure that you have the freshest eggs to poach to perfection in water which is gently simmering and swirled.
Just let us know when you need fresh eggs – and we will do our best to make sure that you can have them on the day of your choice and within 24 hours of being laid.
Bring water to the boil in a small saucepan. Turn heat down to medium. Crack the egg into a cup. Gently stir the water to create a vortex and slip the egg into the centre. After 30 seconds, gently stir to recreate the vortex, which will help to maintain the shape of the egg. After 30 further seconds, remove the egg carefully using a small sieve or a tea strainer.
If keeping to use in a recipe dish later, the poached egg may be carefully transferred to a bowl of cold water and re heated by quickly placing again in boiling water for 15 seconds when needed.
