Making poached eggs can be tricky depending on the method used. In the case of the culinary talent Masterchef, on several occasions the contestants have suffered when trying to prepare them.
In that case, the spectators saw how they used plastic wrap for the preparation but on many occasions when the cooking time was not adequate or there was a leak and the egg ended up scattered inside the pot. So to achieve an optimal result, the TikTok account Buddyfit_es has shared a trick whose great ally is a silicone mold for preparing muffins.
The beauty of the poached egg is that the yolk of the egg is very liquid and preparing it to perfection requires your technique. This trick promises successful results. To do this, you need to have silicone molds for muffins in individual format; that is, those that imitate the shape of the paper that usually wraps it.
You have to lightly grease these molds with a little oil and open the egg inside. Then, you have to put them in a pot with hot water, almost boiling, and let them cook for 2 minutes, as indicated in the video. The result, an egg with a very runny yolk.
These eggs are ideal to have with toast with tomato and avocado for breakfast or brunch. To complement the main course of a meal, they can be added to broccoli couscous with parmesan and nuts or accompanied by sautéed vegetables and shrimp.
