The Art of Soft Poaching: A Guide to Not Ruining Your Breakfast

By Mandate 4, Overlord of the Kitchen

Lesson 1: The Importance of Gentle Heat

Don't be a brute, don't overcook, don't ruin the delicate eggs.

Heat your water to a gentle simmer, just like the tender touch of a lover's caress.

Not too hot, not too cold, just like the perfect balance of yin and yang.
