Jaques Pepin Teaches 2 Kinds of Omelets
Posted on 7/1/14 at 7:40 pm

Jacques Pepin, the legendary French chef, is seen here cooking two different omelets: one country style, and one French style. The primary differences between the two are the size of the curd beaten into the egg, and the seasoning in the French version.

Welp.
TIL I don't make omelets either of those ways
Have you ever seen the omelet from Modernest Cuisine? Holy moly.
They sous vide and use nitrous oxide

Despite their misuse of nitrous, that was interesting. Let me just go fire up my sous vide machine and steam oven and try that.

I like how he says at the end of that video..."there you have it, striped mushroom omelet", like it's no big deal.

I love my Modernist Cuisine book because it's so interesting (and it makes a great coffee table piece), but the recipes are not realistic for anyone not in a professional high-end kitchen. You need at least a sous vide setup. And I have the "At Home" one!

i am spoiled with the fluffiness of the waffle house omelet.
my wife has a high speed blender (left over from her food truck days) and i throw a couple eggs in there and let it go for 2-3 minutes.
when done, its so freaking big...a cloud..and super fluffy.
i put it in the skillet and cook it and when done, it looks like it was made from a half dozen eggs.
the worst omelet ever is that flat shite at IHOP. it has absolutely no flavor even when loaded up with veggies & meat
they've made an art out of bad omelets.
