Poached or boiled

Post by Andrew »

Having a bitch fight with ben over the wording to be used. Is it poached chicken or boiled chicken.

Personally I think hes being a snobby c**t and boiled chicken is perfectly acceptable.

I’ve already given you the hard facts Bro….

Simply stated, the difference between boiling, simmering, and poaching is just a matter of degrees. At 212°F, boiling is the hottest of the three methods. Next is simmering, in the 185° to 205°F range. Finally, there's poaching, the most gentle method, from 160° to 180°F

If the Chicken is still in the egg then it is boiled, if it is out of the egg then it is poached
