When poaching eggs, how long in advance of service can they be held?
  1. Two hours
  2. One day
  3. Two days
  4. Three days
Explanation
Answer: B - Eggs can be poached up to one day in advance. Transfer them to a hotel pan filled with ice water and keep them in the fridge overnight. In the morning, eggs can be reheated one at a time in a pot, or for banquet style service, the hotel pan can be warmed on the stovetop.
