Answers:
I am a former chef and worked in 4-5 star hotels and was trained in classical french cuisine back in the 1970's and it is a dieing art or way of preparing eggs, we did them even shirred eggs in gratin dishes, if you do not have a ramekin like the first person said, most Dollar Giants and Barns sell them for very little, but heatproof glass or Pyrex custard cups are fine to, and when you do cook them in the pan with the water, put a few layers of paper towel in the bottom and only fill it half way up, and boil the water first to aid in the cooking!.

You can even add things to the eggs en cocotte, like cream, cheese, veg, meat or seafood too!. just make sure to cook them very gently and not to long as they should be like a poached egg in consistency!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

You didn't say what part of what you tried didn't work properly!. The eggs can be seasoned so many different ways!. Is your problem with them sticking!? Make sure to rub enough butter inside the ramekins, then sprinkle with salt!. Add any dried or fresh herbs that you would like!. Make sure these things are evenly coating the bottom and sides!. If yours are not cooking through enough, make sure your oven is hot enough (400 dg!.) , and try using boiling water in your pan!.!.!. halfway up the sides of the ramekins!. Bake for at least 15 minutes, but it could take a little longer!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
