About Ovos escalfados
Ovos Escalfados, or poached eggs, are a classic dish enjoyed in Portuguese cuisine and beyond. Prepared by gently simmering eggs in water or broth, this cooking method keeps the yolk creamy while the whites set into a delicate texture. With no added fat, poached eggs are a nutrient-dense source of protein, vitamins like B2 and B12, and essential minerals such as selenium. Low in calories and free of unhealthy oils, they are an excellent choice for a balanced diet. However, moderation is key as the cholesterol content in eggs may be a consideration for individuals monitoring heart health. Versatile and simple, Ovos Escalfados can be incorporated into salads, grain bowls, or served atop whole-grain toast, elevating both flavor and nutritional value of your meals.
