How (Not To) Poach an Egg

I don't understand the difficulty either. I make them in a frying pan with boiling water and a bit of vinegar, and they always come out in one piece with no 'tails' and what not. Perfect every time.

Although as someone else said, I prefer over easy. They just taste better.

Is an egg cooked in plastic really poached? Wouldn't that be more like sous vide?

Poach: to cook (eggs, fish, fruits, etc.) in a hot liquid that is kept just below the boiling point.

Sous Vide: the technique of cooking ingredients in a vacuum-sealed plastic pouch, usually for a long time at a low temperature.
