2. Get The Best Poached Eggs
Fill the pot with water and cook over medium heat. Add 1 tbsp. of white distilled vinegar. Crack the egg in a cup and lower it into the water. Using a wooden spoon, swirl the water around the egg. After 2 minutes, using a slotted spoon, pull the egg out of the water and feel the white. Then gently place your perfectly poached egg on a paper towel. You’re ready to serve!

We know separating the egg whites from the yolk seem like a difficult task, but you can make it easier with the help of a water bottle. All you need to do is lightly squeeze the bottle, suction up the yolk into the bottle, and then lightly squeeze the bottle again to release the yolk. Sounds simple doesn’t it? Go grab the bottle now!

Have guests over and want to whip up a bunch of sandwiches? Just crack a few eggs in a pre-greased tin tray and season them with your choice of toppings. Bake them in the oven at 250° for about 12-15 minutes. When you take them out, you will have the perfect eggs to go in those sandwiches.
5. Keep Eggs Fresh For Long
With this trick, you will be able to keep the eggs fresh for longer and cooking will be a lot less messy. Break the eggs into a bowl and whisk the whites and yolks together. Then pour the mixture into a cube tray. One cube will be equal to about one egg and this will thaw quickly so you can whip up meals easily!
