20 Poachies Egg-Poaching Bags

Product Information

While we have taken care in preparing this summary and believe it to be accurate, it is not a substitute for reading the product packaging and label prior to use. I have had these for years, great results but only recently realised that you don't need to loosen them with a knife, then lift them out with a spoon… You just turn them upside down and pop them out, they sit like little domes on your toast! Remove the the bag from the bowl and tie up – you can use pretty much anything from a simple knot to a sandwich bag tie, or even a hair clip.

Despite this, they can be collapsed and stacked after use for simple storage, making them a practical and convenient choice. Microwave poaching pods: Without needing to use a hob, these microwaveable poaching pods can cook a small number of eggs in seconds - although results may vary depending on the size of your eggs. Now take a Poachie and press down into the bottom of a glass or mug, with the top flaps open as shown, and crack an egg into it.You fill the pan with a little water, bring it to a simmer then crack your eggs into the poaching “holes” on top. It may just look like a traditional saucepan, but pop in the tray insert containing two non-stick poaching cups and you can cook a poached egg in minutes. Poachies are made from a paper-like fabric material, are food safe and can be recycled or composted after use.

We love the integrated handles - a welcome feature when moving the poachers in and out of boiling water, before flipping it inside out to release your egg. Most egg poaching cups cook from the bottom up, so will always struggle to produce a fully solid white while maintaining that runny yolk. Because we know that there’s nothing like a real recommendation, we first headed to the Mumsnet forums to find out what egg poachers our users had tried, tested and rated after extensive use. Once it’s ready, the handy tab on the top makes it really easy to remove without burning your fingers in the process.Just know that it can take a bit of experimenting with timings, as getting the perfect yolk will all depend on the egg size and the power settings on your microwave.

Place the bag in the water and cook for 3 and half to 4 and half minutes, depending on how firm you like your egg. Each cup is huge, so you’ll only be able to cook two eggs at a time and will need a large wok-style pan to do so.After 4½ minutes we lifted the poacher from the pan using a useful silicone tab which stays above the boiling water – a feature we particularly liked. OXO is repeatedly recommended on our forums, too - from their kitchen scales to their mandoline slicers, Mumsnetters can’t get enough of the brand.

Because of the shape of the tray, the eggs do come out quite flat and it’s not possible to get a runny yolk without the white still being wobbly.
