9 Vinegar Cooking Hacks You Wish You Knew Sooner (2 of 5)

Egg Poaching

Making poached eggs can be a pain in the backside if you don’t do it regularly. Apparently, if you just put a bit of vinegar in your water before dropping the egg in it, it should help massively with keeping the egg whites together. Really don’t use too much vinegar here though, as it otherwise might make the eggs taste differently.

Salad Dressings

Probably the most common use of vinegar is adding it to a salad dressing to add some lightness and acidity to the flavour. And despite it mostly being used in vegetable salads, it can be used with pasta or potato or even chicken salads with great results as well.
