sous vide “poached” eggs with hollandaise
sous vide “poached” eggs
Ingredients:
1-2 eggs per person
Directions:
Preheat the sous vide water bath to 148 degrees.
Using a slotted spoon, gently lower the eggs in their shells into the water bath. Cook for 1 hour.
Either serve immediately or lower the water bath temperature to 140 degrees and leave the eggs in the bath for up to an additional two hours.
The cooked eggs can be chilled in ice water for ten minutes and then refrigerated for up to a week. Reheat the eggs in 140-degree water for 15 minutes.
Note- to retain the shape of sous vide poached eggs, crack against flat surface and pull the shells apart over a bowl, not on the lip of a bowl. Lift out with a slotted spoon and serve.
