These sous vide eggs have a perfectly set white with a runny yolk. Poached eggs are normally cooked directly in simmering water, but that can be tricky and lead to rubbery, messy eggs. I have tried different variations of times and temps, and this is the best method I have found. Fresh eggs have tighter whites and produce the best results.
Ingredients
- 4 large cold eggs
- 1 pinch salt and freshly ground black pepper
Instructions
-
1
Fill a large pot with water and place a sous vide immersion cooker into the water. Set temperature to 167 degrees F (75 degrees C) according to manufacturer's instructions; allow 15 minutes for the water to heat.
-
2
Gently lower eggs into the water using a slotted spoon. Immediately set a kitchen timer for 13 minutes.
-
3
Remove eggs from water once timer is up and let cool for 3 minutes. Gently crack egg around the middle and peel top half of shell. Slide egg out into a small bowl or serve over toast. Season with salt and pepper.

Buttermilk Parmesan Potatoes
I came up with this recipe for buttermilk potatoes when I was trying to use up leftover ingredients. They're similar to scalloped potatoes but made with potato cubes instead of slices. They're so good, you'll want seconds! If you have leftovers, they reheat well.
Margaret's Keftedes (Greek Meatballs)
This is my yia yia's recipe--a family favorite straight from the village of Kyparissia. Serve as an appetizer or with tzatziki, Greek salata, and pita or pasta for a full meal. They taste best served at room temp and make for wonderful leftovers. If you don't care for lamb, try using all beef instead.
Gyudon Japanese Beef Bowl
This is basically a common Japanese fast food where beef and caramelized onions are served on top of short-grain rice. Perfect when hot, cold, or room temperature. Good for school lunches on hot days.
