Perfect Poached Eggs

Ok this is not a rant at all, I just thought I'd share my method of cooking perfect poached eggs.

Fill a pot with water so it is deep enough to submerge an egg without it touching the bottom. (filtered water if possible)
Boil.
Once it's boiled, turn the heat down and add a few dashes of white vinegar.
Break an egg into a ladel (don't put it in the pot yet).
Swirl the water in the pot so you get a sort of whirlpool effect where the water goes to the sides.
Drop the egg from the ladel into the water and cook for around 1 minute or until the egg is no longer see-through.

You should have a perfect poached egg, with the white all cooked, almost perfectly formed, delicious and have a runny yolk.
Enjoy.
