How Long To Cook Poached Eggs:
When it comes down to timing and how long to poach an egg this also comes down to preference. Do you prefer your yolks runny or cooked a bit?
To keep the yolks on the runny side, 5-7 minutes is the ideal time to cook the poached eggs.
If you prefer your yolks a bit more cooked, you could give it a bit longer. But no more than 10 minutes is necessary.
Poaching is an indirect, moist-heat cooking method that calls for boiling an egg without its shell. Of the handful of conventional preparation techniques, it ranks as one of the healthiest ways to cook an egg.
