Omelettes became a special interest of sorts when a kitchen I worked in had a competition. Winner takes the pot, £10 per entry. I won, but since then my technique has bloomed like a beautiful eggy flower. I eat an omelette nearly every day, if I’m at home.
I’ve made or eaten eggs in every silly way you can think of - a really good omelette is still the top of the pile IME. Even Passard’s egg dishes don’t beat a really good omelette.
Here are some tips: - source very good eggs if you can. - cheese is not necessary but it’s my favourite. A good cheddar or comte, microplaned for easy melting. - If you can get good butter, great! Even cheap butter is fine. No spreads. Use more than sensible.
- Technique is nearly everything. You need good ingredients, but technique is what distinguishes rubber from the most luxurious egg thing you can make. - Technique (roughly!):
Beat two eggs w/ salt. Let them rest whilst getting your butter hot (~30g in an 8inch non-stick).
Using a spatula, whisk the eggs rapidly on high heat; when you have a ‘wet scramble’ -
- turn off. Takes seconds. Even & fill the cracks with uncooked egg from top layer.
Oh I see, you mean there are unfilled bits and you are soreading the top part of the omelette around while it hasn’t cooked yet?
When you scramble it, you’ll end up with strands of mostly cooked egg, and some less cooked snotty parts. You’ll also be able to see bits of the pan - so spread the uncooked egg into those gaps. Hard to describe accurately enough to be actionable. (Apologies for my silliness)
I think I get it. I will give it a go next time I’m in a place with a good frying pan.
