egg poacher

Gentle breakfast tool

An egg poacher is a kitchen device for cooking eggs gently in water without their shells.

Traditional poachers have small cups that hold individual eggs over simmering water, producing neat, rounded poached eggs: The egg poacher makes perfect eggs Benedict every time.

Some are standalone pans; others are inserts for existing cookware.
