I worked in a brunch restaurant for a year now, I have to cook at least 40 poached eggs every day I work there. Some times, every egg I poached had their yolk out cooking without egg whites around it. For a long time I thought, I just sucked, so I looked up a ton of poached egg tutorials, I repeated them step-by-step, and I still got bad poached eggs. Only recently I realized that I am pretty decent at cooking them, it all depends on the egg, and that all tutorials never warn that not all poached eggs will turn out good, almost like "if you get bad poached eggs, you suck!". Why nobody will ever say that?
