Poaching



Article/Recipe: Perfectly poached.

Poaching tips. Includes links to recipes for aromatic poached sea trout with stir-fried rice noodles; poached beef fillet with chicory and pecan nut salad; and caramel poached peaches with raspberries and thyme cream.

One of my favourite methods of cooking is poaching, and yet so many people associate it with bland and boring diet food. The fact that it results in lighter, healthier dishes is just a bonus, if you ask me.

It's also a convenient way of cooking, because you can poach the garnish along with the food and serve both without losing heat or running the risk of over-cooking ­ the ultimate all-in-one method.
