A poached egg is an egg that has been cooked outside the shell by poaching . This method of preparation can yield more delicately cooked eggs than higher temperature methods such as boiling. Poached eggs can be found in several dishes. The egg is cracked into a cup or bowl of any size, and then gently slid into a pan of water at approximately 62 °C (144 °F) and cooked until the egg white has mostly solidified, but the yolk remains soft. The "perfect" poached egg has a runny yolk, with a hardening crust and no raw white remaining. In countries that mandate universal salmonella vaccination for hens, eating eggs with a runny yolk is considered safe.
