Poachies Egg poaching Bags, 17 x 13.5 x 3 cm, Pack of 100

Great poachers and does the job.

Very useful when I cant be bothered to make them the old fashioned way

This is the easiest way to make poached eggs and once tried you will never do it any differently !

Excellent. Make poaching eggs easy.

Best poached egg I’ve ever eaten - I’m 72 years old and made it all by myself. So easy and quick to make in the supplied little poachie pocket (I bought 100), but it took me a couple of times to get it just right for me. I’m an oldie so anyone can do it. It’s just a process like anything else, so read the instructions carefully on the back of the packet, keep it to hand for reference and concentrate on a few important things: 1. The instructions say you need to transfer the pouch/egg quickly into the bubbling boiling water. If you don’t, the egg white starts to leak out the pouch very slowly, but by being quick to get it into the boiling water means you get very little ‘foaming’ in the bubbling water. 2. To do this, I cracked the egg carefully into a small breakfast bowl cos it was easier to then gently pour it into a poachie pocket stood upright in an empty mug. 3. Then, carefully squeeze the top of the pouch together while lifting the poachie/egg upright and then gently immersing it into the boiling water, with the open end at the top and also keep pressing the top carefully together as it goes into the water. 4. To check the egg white is firming up, gently separate the top slowly as it’s in the pan and then pinch back together - every couple of minutes is enough and perhaps more often as it’s nearly cooked. I used very large eggs and I wanted the top part of the egg to be solid and not runny, so for me it’s about 5-6mins. But don’t be put off at all. On my second session I got it just about right and in practice it’s a lot quicker than reading the above and the supplied instructions. After my first trial early evening all I wanted to do was have one of these poachie eggs for breakfast - a slice of toasted seeded bread cut in half for the egg and a small tin of warmed up baked beans for the other half - incredibly yummy, healthy and easy to make.

There is little better than poached eggs on a slice of fresh brown bread with an avocado bottom. This 100-pack of poachies allows you to make poached eggs on an industrial scale! And it’s a healthier alternative compared to frying. We’ve tried several ways of preparing poached eggs; cook them in hot water and vinegar, silicone cups – nothing really worked. These poachies, that could double as coffee filter bags, are not perfect but they get you somewhere. First of all the resulting poached egg remains a bit dense, as if lightly baked, and the result is a fairly small sized poached egg - even if you buy the most sizeable, premium eggs. So you'll still not get restaurant-quality poached egg on your plate. Secondly it remains a messy business, some egg white will spill as you pour the egg in the pouch, even when standing up opened up in a glass. And you’ll have to pull the water soaked sleeves with the poached egg out of the cooking water again. And in my opinion there is a, say 5% chance of failure; when a bag rips, tilts prematurely or if you place it in the water too slowly. So given thee issues I would rate with 4 stars only. But I take off 1 more for the price; At 10 pence per bag this is not a cheap solution (although you are reasonably sure of an acceptable and tasty result). And it’s all very straight forward, quick and easy. But given the price I'm tempted to poach an egg with an actual coffee filter bag that I can buy at less than 3 pence per bag. I should perhaps add that we tend to cook the eggs less than the suggested 6 minutes to keep them sufficiently gooey. We first tried a set of 20 pouches that we worked through fairly quickly. And now, with more guests expected and the holiday season coming up it seemed like a good idea to stock up so we bought the pack of 100.

Perfect Poached Eggs Every Time! I’m so impressed with the Poachies Egg Poaching Bags. They make poaching eggs completely fool-proof – no more messy vinegar water or broken yolks. Just crack your egg into the bag, drop it into boiling water, and in a few minutes you’ve got a perfectly cooked, soft, and runny poached egg. The bags are good quality and large enough (17 x 13.5 cm) to easily hold the egg without splitting. They don’t stick, and the eggs slide out effortlessly with no need for oil. Cleanup is non-existent – you just throw the bag away. Perfect for quick breakfasts, brunches, or when cooking for guests. I’ve had consistent results every time, and with 100 bags in a pack, they’re great value for money. I honestly wish I’d discovered these sooner!

Great little pouch for poaching, but every one I’ve used so far leaks from the base before even reaching the boiling water. I’ve followed the instructions carefully—opening a pouch in a glass, cracking the egg into it, and then transferring it to the pan of boiling water—but it still leaves an annoying trail of egg white on the way to the pot. And of course, until it solidifies, more egg white leaks into the water. The pouch size is decent, though and I am still getting a poached egg but it isn't perfect. That said, I still have quite a few pouches left to get through before I consider switching to another option.
