How to make the perfectly poached duck and goose eggs.
Ideally use duck or goose eggs no more than one week old, the fresher the better.
Over a bowl, crack and pour each egg individually into a small fine mesh kitchen strainer or sieve. Slightly swirl, allowing the watery part of the egg white/albumen to pour through the strainer and into the bowl below. Then pour each strained egg into its own small bowl or ramiken.
Add water to a large pot on your stove until it's at least 4" deep (the deeper the better). Add vinegar. Next you want to get your water into the 180-190°F (82-88°C) range - and keep it there throughout the egg poaching process. If you don't have a kithen thermometer, you can tell your water is in the ideal temperature range if small fish eye bubbles form on the bottom of the pot. Option 1: bring water to boil then turn down. Option 2: bring water to fish eye bubble stage and maintain at that temperature range.
Have a slotted spoon ready. If you're not planning to use your poached eggs immediately, you'll also want to have an ice bath ready (aka a bowl of ice water).
Once water is in the correct temperature range, it's time to start poaching eggs. If you're only doing 1-2 eggs, swirl the water with a large spoon to form a water vortex in the middle. You'll completely poach each egg, one at a time, by dropping it into the water vortex. If you're cooking 3+ eggs, the vortex method is probably going to be too slow. Instead, you can put multiple eggs into your pot of heated water (probably no more than 3 at a time or it's going to get difficult to manage).
Ideal poaching time: duck eggs: 3 minutes and 15 seconds; goose eggs: 5 minutes and 20 seconds. Set timer as soon as you put eggs in water.
Remove finished poached eggs from water with a slotted spoon, pat dry, then plate and serve immediately.
If not serving immediately, dip each finished egg in the ice bath for about 30 seconds (to flash-cool) then blot dry.
