How to Make an Omelette With Cheese Youtube
Parker Feierbach
In culinary school we learned that a chef is only as good as the omelet they make. Well, that's intimidating. I've since learned that it really doesn't have to be. Omelets are no scarier than good scrambled eggs. A gentle drag then fold creates the perfect blanket for cheese and your favorite fillings. Here are a few tips so you can be a master chef of breakfast.
How do I make fluffy omelets?
Pillowy omelets are the best omelets. After you pour the eggs into the skillet the edges will start to set. As soon as they do, use a rubber spatula to gently drag an edge into the middle. Tilt the pan so that the uncooked eggs in the center of the pan fall to a bare edge. Doing this creates waves and not only makes your omelet fluffy, but helps it cook evenly as well.
Do I need milk?
No! A couple of tablespoons of milk won't hurt and will make your omelet great, but the dragging method doesn't require milk to achieve a great omelet. You'll also want to pull your omelet off the stove when the eggs are still slightly wet in the middle but set around the edge.
What makes a French Omelet different?
The main difference in a French omelet and an American one is how you treat the eggs once they are in the pan and also how it's served. A French omelet is whisked with a fork while the eggs to cook to create a structure more like scrambled eggs and then rolled into a log. An American omelet using a dragging method to push the cooked eggs to the inside and the uncooked egg to the outside. Both yield a well cooked and fluffy omelet, but the French style has a more custard like texture and sits taller since it's rolled. American omelets are also traditionally stuffed with other ingredients like cheese, bell peppers, mushrooms, herbs, bacon, or ham.
Can I make an omelet in a bag??
Surprisingly, yes! Making an omelet in a bag is a great method to make multiple omelets at once with no flipping required! Add your favorite fillings and shake away.
