It takes about 10 minutes to poach an egg, and you can cook one egg at a time or several eggs at once. Lightly grease a medium skillet (about 10 inches in diameter) or large saucepan. This greasing step is optional but helps keep the whites from sticking to the sides of the pan. Fill the skillet half full with water.
The Land of Punt is best known for Queen Hatshepsutâs famous expedition in 1493 BCE in the 18th Dyanasty of Egypt, which brought back living trees to Egypt, marking the first known successful attempt at transplanting foreign fauna.fter she had carried out the duties of a king for two years, in her role as regent on behalf of Thuthmosis III, Hatshepsut was driven by her ambition to assume the power, authority and title of pharaoh.
The exact location of the Land of Punt is unknown, and through the years it has been cited as part of Arabia, the Horn of Africa, present-day Somalia, the Sudan, or Eritrea. The debate goes on as to where Punt was located, with scholars and historians on every side offering plausible supports for their claims.t would seem, however, from the reliefs telling of the expedition carved on Hatshepsutâs temple at Deir al-Bahri, that Punt was likely located on the shores of the Red Sea. The Egyptians traveled there by boat down the Nile, through the Wadi Tumilat in the eastern Delta and on to the Red Sea.
