How did they get these poached eggs to look like this?

1 Answer

Answer :

The trick is having an acid (vinegar) in the water. The vinegar makes the albumin (the white part of the egg) pull together instead of trying to disperse through the water. I’m guessing from the somewhat pointed one, that they poached them in a fairly deep pan and the water/vinegar was at a full boil when the eggs were dropped in.
