Divide between 4 dishes. Step 2: To poach the eggs, bring a 2-quart pot of water to a simmer and pour in the vinegar. Line a large plate or baking sheet with a paper towel. Step 3: Crack 1 egg into a heatproof ramekin. Use the handle of a spatula to stir the simmering water until it makes a whirlpool, then gently drop the egg into the center of the whirlpool. Step 4: Let the egg cook undisturbed for 30 seconds, then stir gently and cook for 2-3 minutes more, until the white is completely cooked and the yolk is beginning to firm up at the edges but still wobbly in the center. Step 5: Transfer the egg to the paper towel-lined plate and repeat with the remaining eggs. Step 6: Place a poached egg on each salad dish and top with freshly ground pepper, if desired. Step 7: Serve with the remaining vinaigrette. Share This Recipe Share How To Sending Thank you! Your email was sent.Send another!
