What’s the best way to poach an egg

Sure! Here are four different ways to poach an egg:

**Classic Method**: Bring a pot of water to a gentle simmer, add a splash of vinegar, and create a little whirlpool with a spoon. Crack your egg into a small bowl, then gently slide it into the center of the whirlpool. Let it cook for about 3-4 minutes until the whites are set but the yolk is still runny. Scoop it out with a slotted spoon and enjoy!

**Microwave Hack**: Fill a microwave-safe bowl with water, then crack your egg into it. Cover the bowl with a plate and microwave on high for about 1 minute. Keep an eye on it to make sure it doesn't explode! Perfect if you’re in a hurry.

**Silicone Molds**: If you want a neat shape, try using silicone molds. Just spray the molds with a bit of cooking spray, crack an egg into each mold, and place them in a pot of simmering water. Cover and cook for about 5-6 minutes. They come out looking super cute!
