Ingredients
  

  • 2-3 large eggs
  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
  • Salt a pinch
  • Black pepper a pinch
  • Optional fillings: cheese herbs

Instructions
 

Prepare Your Eggs

  • Crack eggs into a bowl. Add salt and pepper. Whisk them gently. Do not over-whisk. Just mix whites and yolks.

Heat Your Pan

  • Put butter in the pan. Heat over medium-high heat. Butter should melt and foam. Do not let it brown.

Pour the Eggs

  • Pour eggs into the hot pan. Let them set for a moment. The edges will cook first. Swirl the pan around.

Scramble Gently

  • Use a fork or spatula. Push cooked egg to center. Tilt pan to let liquid flow. Repeat this a few times. The omelette will be soft.

Add Fillings (Optional)

  • Sprinkle cheese or herbs now. Place them on one side. This is the folding side.

Fold and Serve

  • Cook for a minute more. The top should still be moist. Fold the omelette in half. Slide it onto a plate. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • Always use real butter for the best flavor.
  • Do not use a flavored wine for this.
  • Make sure the cheesecloth is 100% cotton. Let the turkey rest before you slice it.
  • This keeps the juices inside the meat.
  • Use a thermometer to check the temperature.
