Boil water and crack the egg into it. Let it cook for around 3 minutes and voila! Scoop it out easily.

poached?

you bring a pan of water to a simmer. add in about 1tsp of white vinegar (not required but helps them coagulate faster). created a whirlpool in the middle of the pan by stirring around the outside a few times with a spoon. crack the egg into the middle of the whirlpool coo****il it's done.

Poached eggs are made in water. I had them for breakfast today!

I use the cheater's method:  I put some water in a glass bowl, break the eggs into the water, and pierce the yolks many times with a fork.  Then I put them in the microwave for a minute, re-pierce the yolks, and let it go for another 30-40 seconds.

Note:  DON'T FORGET to pierce and re-pierce the yolks or you'll end up with exploded egg all over the inside of your microwave.

I like my eggs (no matter how they're prepared) with pepper, which I grind on after they're out of the water.  I haven't had any problems with pepper post-op, although YMMV.

 "Your Mileage May Vary." Just because it works that way for me doesn't mean it will work that way for you.
