    Shopping List

    • 1 to 2 teaspoons instant chicken bouillon granules (optional)
    • 4 eggs
    • Salt
    • Ground black pepper

    Instructions

    If desired, lightly grease a 10-inch saute pan or skillet with cooking oil. Half-fill the skillet with water. If desired, stir in bouillon granules. Bring the water to boiling; reduce heat to simmering (bubbles should begin to break the surface of the water).

    Break one of the eggs into a smaill dish or a measuring cup with a handle. Carefully slide egg into the simmering water, holding the lip of the cup as close to the water as possible.

    Simmer eggs, uncovered, for 3 to 5 minutes or until the whites are completely set and the yolks begin to thicken but are not hard. Remove eggs with a slotted spoon. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

    Makes 4 poached eggs.
