Yankee Publishing (rss@ypi.com) Thu, 30 Apr 2009 20:23:54 +0100 http://www.yankeemagazine.com/issues/2009-05/interact/10things/omelet It is worded confusingly, isn't it? It might read better this way: "Tilt the pan over your serving plate so that the unfolded third of the omelet slides out and hangs over the edge onto the plate, with the folded two-thirds still in the pan. Then tilt the pan a little further over the plate so the folded two-thirds still in the pan flips over onto the third of the omelet already on the plate." The videos from Julia Child's TV series in the sixties are wonderful. I gave some on DVD to my daughter-in-law for her birthday last year and we have a lot of fun watching them, especially the omelet show!

That way you can be sure the egg is good and you can fish out any stray bits of shell before you transfer the egg into the bowl.

Using water instead of milk, and get back to you. Mama Nick.

Yankee Publishing (rss@ypi.com) Fri, 01 May 2009 02:25:45 +0100 http://www.yankeemagazine.com/issues/2009-05/interact/10things/omelet Although an omelet makes a lovely presentation I want nothing to do with any runny egg. Frittatas are much easier to make and all my omelet eating family members are just as happy with that. Start the eggs in your pan just like for an omelet but then pop them under a broiler just as soon as the underside sets, right before it would show any browning. The eggs puff up nicely, then top with grated cheese and return to the broiler until the cheese melts and bubbles. Mmmmm....

Someone doesn't know what a third is.

And where might I buy Julia Child's DVDs? Yankee Publishing (rss@ypi.com) Mon, 04 May 2009 16:47:40 +0100
