Ingredients
- 4 units Fresh duck eggs
- 2 tablespoons White vinegar
- 2 liters Water
- 1 pinch Salt
- 1 pinch Freshly ground black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Chopped chives
Directions
Step 1
Fill a medium-sized saucepan with 2 liters of water and add the 2 tablespoons of white vinegar.
Step 2
Bring the water to a gentle simmer over medium heat. Do not let it come to a boil.
Step 3
Crack each duck egg into a separate small ramekin or cup to prevent shell fragments from getting into the water.
Step 4
Once the water is simmering, gently stir it to create a small whirlpool.
Step 5
Carefully slide one duck egg at a time into the center of the whirlpool. The swirling water will help the egg white wrap around the yolk for a neat appearance.
Step 6
Allow the egg to cook for 3 to 4 minutes, depending on your desired yolk consistency. A shorter time will yield runnier yolks.
Step 7
Use a slotted spoon to gently remove the poached egg from the water, allowing it to drain briefly.
Step 8
Repeat the poaching process with the remaining duck eggs.
Step 9
Season the poached eggs with a pinch of salt and freshly ground black pepper.
Step 10
Garnish with 1 tablespoon of chopped chives.
Step 11
Serve immediately, and enjoy your low-carb perfect poached duck eggs!
