Learned new technique, and made as written. Oh yes, will be making this again and again and again...
I watched the video before making this omelette, which I’d really suggest! It makes everything very clear since this is very much a technique based recipe. My omelette came out really nicely on my first try! Easy and delicious, and pretty impressive looking when you cut into it. I feel like this will take me a few tries to perfect but it’s a great technique to know, and this recipe explains it clearly.
Did as Chef suggested except on my outdoor stove, first time made plain and came out perfect, and delicious. Chef, your right- it’s all about the
Diet time trying this recipe and it is very tasty. I used garlic salt instead of regular salt and white pepper at the end. I think I stirred, litter and rolled correctly but I did have problems rolling it into a cylinder at the end and it ended up cracking on the second roll lol. It didn’t hurt the taste any and since it was for me I didn’t care. I’ll def keep making omelets this way because I didn’t burn one side of it. Lol. I also added cracked black pepper cheese to the inside and paprika ontop when it was done because i didn’t have cayenne pepper. Thank you for the technique and recipe.
Excellent!! Made as recipe calls.
As far as making omelette a go this was pretty simple and easy to manage. One thing I will say is if you don’t have a gas stove top have one burner set to medium high and turn another on low when you pour the eggs into the buttered pan that way you don’t over cook but you’re also not waiting for another burner to heat up. I filled my omelette with barbecued sausage and smoked paprika on top. Delicious!
This was easy and fun to make; however my omelette didn't look as pretty as the one shown (not sure if my pan was too large or the eggs too small - used a 9 inch sauce pan and Grade A Eggland's Best large eggs) but was still delicious!
I just finished my plate of wonderful egginess. Yes there is lot of butter in this dish. Yes you need it. No do not cut back on it to make it "healthier." If you want healthy eat a head of lettuce. This is a completely decadent meal that you'd make to treat yourself or your family once in awhile not to be eaten every morning. Watch the video follow Chef John's technique and you can't go wrong. It was my first time making this just now and it turned out looking exactly like the one in the video. It was beautiful fluffy custardy and delicious.
This is the best omelette I have ever made. I'm still working on the rolling technique. Didn't change anything.
Like the recipe but the instructions for medium high heat instantly burned the butter and the eggs. I dialed it down to low (2-3 on a scale of up to 9) and while it took longer got much better results. I can see how technique is important and I will continue to fine tune mine. I must add not to add any salt if you are using salted butter; even a pinch with salted butter turned out almost too salty for us. Thank you for the video demonstration, it was very helpful.
