The best poached eggs i've ever had was when I holiday'ed in Australia. The yolks were always the perfect balance of creamy runniness and firmness. The whites were firm by contrast and all in all the flavour of egg was rampant without being obnoxious...what are they feeding the hens down under??

I've not been able to replicate a decent poached egg since then. Mostly because mine always fall apart in the water or I overcook them or so on or so forth. A month or so ago I saw <a href="http://www.thekitchn.com/thekitchn/how-to/how-to-poach-an-egg-the-video-home-hacks-108958">TheKitchn's home hack </a>as to how to poach and egg..it looked SO simple I just had to try it..Coupled with my farmers market eggs I gave it a go.

The end result are the best poached eggs i've had in a long while! Creamy and fresh  - topped with some pink salt, ground pepper and scallions.. Yum!
