Electric egg boiler

Poaching is cooking over steam rising from boiling water in the bottom of a cookware like a pan. Egg poacher or boiler is a covered pan containing a steel plate, egg holder with depressions or shallow cups in each of which an egg can be cooked over steam rising from simmering or boiling water in the bottom of the pan; or a kitchen tool that enables eggs to be easily cooked when poaching is desired.
