This is really an excellent recipe. BUT I will say that I find the America's Test Kitchen method of poaching eggs far superior (sorry, John). Everything about this recipe is extremely easy, but if you mess up the eggs you mess up the whole dish.Rob Pitingolohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10273110931175509169noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7173052990851751381.post-86711959486262194032011-12-30T20:54:08.567-05:002011-12-30T20:54:08.567-05:00I just made this and I did a -terrible- job of it ...I just made this and I did a -terrible- job of it and it -still- tasted fantastic. <3Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7173052990851751381.post-18238984545039972202011-10-22T19:24:42.697-04:002011-10-22T19:24:42.697-04:00thank you for sharing!

After adding a little vinegar to the water i make a little vortex in the center by stirring it and gently dropping the egg into the center. Keeps the egg together. Used an ice bath and reheated once I had cooked them all.<br /><br />We used some wild sockeye lox that they had at the farmers market today. Very flavorful. I thought that the lack of sauce really let the other ingredients shine through. I didn't miss the hollandaise one bit. <br /><br />Thank you chef John!

I asked if they had ever considered dill as the garnish, so I'm asking you if you ever considered gravlax for this recipe? It would tie in well as another variation.<br /><br />I would not be afraid to top this with Hollandaise, either. Hollandaise is a health food.<br /><br />JimAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7173052990851751381.post-46468159634900775072011-06-20T18:49:11.786-04:002011-06-20T18:49:11.786-04:00I'm thinking there is enough fat here to keep ...I'm thinking there is enough fat here to keep you legit. :)Tarnationhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05588571333016424955noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7173052990851751381.post-33559157915726672022011-06-20T17:34:29.449-04:002011-06-20T17:34:29.449-04:00Oh, I'm sooo hungry now.
