Getting eggy with it.
There’s nothing quite like the feeling of running your knife through a perfectly poached egg you made yourself. Unfortunately, we’re not all chefs, but don’t panic. You can still enjoy that perfectly poached egg. There’s no better way to enjoy it than with a famous egg recipe: eggs benedict. Either on a bed of bacon or salmon, it’s the perfect way to start and end your day.
