As published

This recipe was extracted from Scientific cooking with scientific methods (1911) by Sarah E. Woodworth Craig, page 92. The excerpt below is the record exactly as published.

a teaspoon of salt to a quart of water and a teaspoon of lemon juice or vinegar, lemon juice preferred. When the water is boiling, stir it round and round, and drop the eggs in one at a time, breaking each one in a cup, using care not to disturb the membrane covering the yolks. Do not allow the water to boil, and as soon as there is a film over the top and whites are set, they are done. Remove them with a buttered skimmer, and slip onto a round of buttered toast and trim the white into shape. Let each person season eggs to suit their individual tastes. Eggs can be poached in egg-poacher or muffin rings if preferred. Butter them before dropping in the eggs. EGGS. 201 Poached Eggs
