When ready, gently place them back into your boiling water for a few seconds [never leaving your slotted spoon] and viola, you still have perfect, timely poached eggs!.
They should be perfectly poached, with firm yet tender whites and wonderfully runny yolks. Bring some water to the boil in a saucepan. Add the vinegar, then crack the egg and gently drop in the water. Remove from the water with a slotted spoon and delicately transfer it onto kitchen roll (to remove the excess water).
