Today I show you my recipe poached egg with ratatouille vegetables. You will find here a detailed step by step guide with many tips from the professional kitchen.
Poached eggs are known as lost eggs. The egg is cooked without shell in vinegar water just below the boiling point, in the technical terminology of the chefs this is called “poaching”. In the article I describe why blanched eggs are a nepp.
The combination of lost egg and ratatouille is wonderful, serve this dish for breakfast and brunch, this egg dish is a wonderful thing for Easter.
The arranged poached egg on the spinach leaves is another idea for you. Surrounded by wild herb blossoms, it looks splendid. I cut the egg at the table or on top just before serving so that the liquid or waxy yolk is visible.
