Rolling sunny, tender eggs around a tidy filling doesn't require much more skill or time than a hearty scramble-but the result is much more polished and satisfying.

I love Julia's attempt after Lan's explanation. It actually added a bit of tension that you wouldn't necessarily expect from a cooking demonstration. Also, love that there were no swaps/Julia's first attempt wasn't perfect (but still very good). ATK is the gold standard of teaching people how to cook.

Agreed. Julia is a trained cook and almost certainly knows how to make a French omelette already, but the little bit of theater here is helpful. Nice to see a recipe demonstrated by its creator, and then attempted by another person, it's a good format for making it seem achievable and accessible.

I prefer the drier scrambled eggs over he wetter omelet. I also use cream cheese as one of my surprise ingredients Cream cheese scrambled eggs is hard to find but once someone who loves cream cheese tries is, they usually prefer it. I have seen it on a local breakfast menu called “the Wisconsin scramble.”

Got some helpful tips there. I haven't ever pre-melted the cheese, and I don't stir it quite as aggressively as it is cooking because I don't want to mess up the shape, but here she shapes after it is cooked most of the way. I do like to blend cheddar with something like havarti, gouda, or fontina, which can impact the flavor and meltability profile.

Hey Lan, thank you! I've been trying to improve my omelettes for about a year. I struggled with when to turn the heat off. Cooking the eggs longer like you did and then turning off the heat for only a short amount of time produced a great balance between the interior and exterior of the omelette. I can't believe it turned out so well on my first try. This video is legit, much appreciated.

Is there anything Lan can not make better? She always is the best person to explain the technique in a way that is knowledgeable and approachable. I've been using a similar technique for years, though I use a rubber whisk and move the pan for the first bit of cooking then I use a small spatula on the finish. The precook of cheese works or use some flavored goats cheese that you don't need to premelt. I haven't ordered an omelet out since I learned how to properly cook one as they are always just brown over cooked eggs at most omelet stands. Often at a nice hotels omelet stand I will ask if i can do my own and it's funny to see others ask for it be done that way after me.

I make my omelets in a sushi style. Also 3 eggs often with an added yolk, also salted, but beaten with chopsticks until smooth. Then, on a two-burner, very well seasoned anodized aluminum griddle, in ghee, over medium heat, I pour the egg out in a rectangular shape. Add my fillers over the egg base, then roll the omelet up and lightly flatten it with my spatula. I continue to cook it until I have great color on both sides before serving. Our favorite is shredded leftover chicken, chopped Anaheim green chili, chopped scallion, white shoe peg corn, fresh torn cilantro leaves, and Jack or Cheddar-Jack cheese. I cover the omelet with warmed, mild green enchilada sauce, a little more cheese, sour cream, and garnish with more cilantro or scallion. I serve it with vegetarian refried beans on the side. None better, anywhere, in our book.

@bengt_axle

I looks like a French style omelet but it is not. A classic French is made by shaking the pan continuously so as to make a thin-skinned-wrinkle-free envelope filled with a very delicate curd of scrambled egg. When you cut into it, this very homogeneous curd will run out slowly. It is quite difficult to get right without practice. This omelet is more American style with a French look because the inside is spread out on the pan and then folded. It is cooked over several minutes while a French omelet is done in less than a minute or so. I think they didn't try to replicate a classic French omelet because in America, people tend to prefer the curd a little firmer and also because a French is more difficult to get right.

Wow, learned a few things! I wouldn't have stirred the eggs in the pan nor premelted the cheese. Neat!

As some one who cooks professionally, and someone who is pretty particular about the color on my eggs, this is a bit fussy for a simple omelet that will most likely be covered in something at the table. I make a pretty good omelet and strive to get little to no color on them and really preach that to the other cooks I mentor. I have found that a lot of the cooks I've come across are scared of cooking eggs in any form other than scrambled. I've told them and I really do believe that once you have mastered or just feel comfortable cooking eggs that will make most breakfast services that much easier and less stressful. What I have learned and have taught others that the key to a great egg, poached, fried, omelet whatever is patience and a good pan. Most people like their eggs cooked their way as they would a steak, but in all honestly most people are just content with what is on their plate.

Yes, well seasoned cast iron or carbon steel works. I've even used stainless steel - it may take a bit more butter (maybe 1 tbsp) and be extra careful about the heat.

Yes, in a traditional carbon steel pan that has been properly seasoned. The most important tip is to start with eggs that are at room temperature. Second most important is to slowly heat your pan (5 min at least) at the right temperature (low-med). Most stoves will have a dead spot in the center that will be reproduced on the pan, where there is no heat supplied and unless you allow the heat to diffuse to this point by heating it for several minutes, the egg will stick. A properly seasoned pan at the right temperature will give a nice omelette in about 30 seconds. You have to continuously shake the pan and use pure butter. It takes a lot of practice!

Was a little frustrated attempting to make a better omelet and I thought it was my age (77 male) and this worked perfectly. Maybe using a fork allows more air when pre mixing due to the fork times as well as having the eggs at room temp. Simple/quick/satisfying. Thank TK..

As someone who has mastered the omelette over years of practice and watching KZfaq (why KZfaq recommended this immediately), a tip I have is to use one hand-mixer beater attachment by hand instead of a whisk or fork.

..or try this simple alternative: turn down the heat and cover it. I use a pizza pan. No stirring. Flip it when it's firmed up, but still wet on top. Then immediately place the cheese (non pre-melted). Replace pan cover for 30 seconds, then fold and serve.

Here is an interesting fact: Teflon is known by another name for those of us that don’t like to get wet in the rain, Gore-Tex.

This is a great explanation of making the most of residual heat. The technique is what makes this one so approachable. I have a little tamagoyaki pan, and have really had fun learning different ways to create omelets with it. I think this method in general will make an easier omelet experience. Just let the pan and the residual heat help you create the smooth texture on the surface. No fuss, no muss.
