How do I poach eggs?

Poaching Eggs for a Crowd

To poach eggs for a crowd, poach eggs ahead of time, slightly undercooking them.

When you remove them from their cooking water, slide them into a large bowl of cold water until needed.

When ready to be served, reheat in simmering water a few minutes until heated through and cooked as desired.

If you are making eggs only a short while ahead, slide all of them, as they are cooked, into a large bowl of hot (not boiling) water. Top with more hot water as needed to keep them warm.
