Directions
Microwave Poached Eggs (Bon Appetit Magazine), This method is as effective as poaching eggs on the stove; but it is a good deal faster, and the cleanup is MUCH easier! I heard about this on Food for Thought on NPR last week (one of the hosts mentioned that she had read about this technique in the April issue of Bon Appetit Magazine) I decided to try it– it works! Read More bonappetit com/blogsandforums/blogs/badaily/2011/04/how-to-poach-eggs-in-the-microwave html#ixzz1Lm4NMr7d [April 20, 2011 / Posted by Mary-Frances Heck], I did everything as instructed and the egg blew up at around 55 seconds! Be warned – having read the other comments, only one other person has experience this Does everyone else piece the yolk first to prevent this happening? I’m scared to try again!, My microwave is only 700w so I found the perfect time for me in a normal sized bowl is 2mins, turn egg, another 45 seconds, perfect!
