I switched to a saute pan with higher sides to accommodate more vigorous jerking.

About thirty seconds.  Still creamy in the center.  No utensil sullied.

I made chef Ludo's boursin omelette the other day. It was pretty rich, and I would use smaller dollops of boursin next time. Regrettably I was out of chives, so you will have to picture this with finely sliced chives on top. The center was custardy-creamy.

My perfect omelet would be one with no browning and the inside like soft custardy eggs.

I can get that about 50% of the time as it takes near perfect timing and any filling ingredients warmed without any excess liquid (when using greens).

Here's an older example: mushroom, spinach and goat cheese 2 egg omelet.

I/we prefer the slightly browned aka 'country style' -

just about everyone is a favorite . . .

- just cheese

- western/Denver

- mushroom & onion

- tomato & scallion

- ham&cheese.  I save&freeze diced spiral ham (Easter thing . . . ) for later use

- cheese&sausage

 

oddly, no "beef" stuff in the mix . . . might have to play with that....

 

btw, my "Blue Diamond" ceramic pan has officially transitioned from "non-stick" to "stick" so I'm having to revert back to real Teflon for eggs & crepes....
