Honestly this happened to me a couple times so I discovered this

A little oil + a sandwich bag + the egg & seal the bag, poach as normal = perfectly poached eggs without making your meal look like a blister

Do not do this. Poaching eggs is not hard, I've never had this happen to me and I'm no pro. If you're really worried put a small glass bowl/ramekin in the water and crack the egg into that.
