5Great Way to Poach EggsApr 04, 2008

My eggs came out perfectly for me (not runny at all) the first time I used these, which I recorded using my camcorder. I hope it helps to see exactly how to use them. It's fun and easy!

4Easy to use. Effective.Dec 09, 2007
By rosiet33 "rosiet33"
I love poached eggs, and was enamored with the absurdity of the color, name, and design of poachpods. I bought them, ripped the tag off, and put them in the cupboard for a month.

I just used them for the first time today, and didn't have the instructions. So I just dropped the eggs in the pod, and placed the pods into lightly boiling water. I replaced the lid, and waited 5 minutes. I then had perfectly poached eggs that were seriously stuck to the poachpod. Whoops. My bad.

SO, a poachpod will give you a perfect egg if you:

1) Boil some water
2) Spray the inside of pods with nonstick spray (or brush with olive oil)
3) Crack the eggs into the pods
4) Turn down the water to low
5) Place the pods into the water (the lilypad effect is pretty sweet)
6) Replace the pot cover
7) Wait 5 minutes
6) Coax the eggs out of the pods onto your plate/toast/english muffin

That's it - exactly how they are supposed to work. No need to buy a dedicated poaching pan. I used a 3 qt saucepan.

Because the top of the pods are out of the water, the "handle" part is not too hot to touch. I had no problem removing the eggs with my hands.

3Looks great, but tastes kinda funnyFeb 14, 2008
By J.R. Kim
First of all, these things work well. They make poaching eggs quite easy, as long as you make sure to oil the pods. I poured a few drops of oil into each pod, then used my finger to coat the walls; this resulted in the cooked egg coming out clean, no sticking.
The only reason i rated this 3 stars is because my eggs taste just like the way the pods smell. Maybe its a one time thing, who knows, but i made sure to wash them beforehand.
So as far as function goes, ill give it 4 1/2 stars, but because of the taste of the eggs, i have to knock down some points.

2Pretty eggs, but retain odors and tasteJan 03, 2008
By Red
These cups make very picture-perfect poached eggs, but they retain odors and tastes.

To use simply coat the inisde of the cups with oil or cooking spray and place them in a large pot of boiling water. As the water approaches boiling, drop an egg in the cup, turn down the heat and cook for 4-5 minutes (less if you want softer eggs). To remove the eggs, simple spoon out the perfectly formed eggs. You can also flip the cups inside out, if you are very heat-reistant hands.

Not coating the cups with oil will create a sticky mess.

But that's not the bad news. After about five uses, the eggs from my cups starting tasting exactly like I would imagine my dish soap would taste if I ate it. I had forgotten to coat the cups with oil the last time I used them so I had to soak them for a bit in hot soap water to loosen the glued on eggs. Apparently that was enough to get the dish soap scent in the cups and passed on to the eggs. Yuk! I've tried everything (baking soda, freezing, etc.) to remove the smell and resulting taste, with no success.

4Poached egg edges not as smooth as I had expectedOct 27, 2007
By Pastry Princess
While it is a handy device, and undoubtedly less fussy to use than other poaching products/tools, it is not perfect. Because bits of egg stay stuck to the sides of the pod after either flipping them out or using a flexible spoon/spatula...
- the resulting shape is not as smooth or "clean" as I'd like (acceptable for daily use but not good enough for entertaining)
- cleanup isn't any easier than cleaning custard cups or ramekins if you choose to handwash.

I own and use several silicone kitchen tools, I was surprised that the non-stick feature fails with these poach pods. I consider myself a very experienced cook, and am 100% certain I followed the directions exactly when I used the pods several times.
