Omelette Recipe (basic recipe) – The GialloZafferano Recipe

Podcast Recipe

Duration 2:22 – Steps 4

The omelette is a dish of French origin, which should not be confused with the classic Italian omelette. It may seem like a simple thing to prepare and the omelette can actually be made in just a few minutes, but this recipe can hide many pitfalls! Today in the kitchen of Giallo Zafferano we had the honor of hosting Cristina Bowerman, a great chef who explained to us how to obtain the perfect omelette! It starts with the choice of eggs, which must be very fresh, in fact only an excellent ingredient can transform a simple dish like an omelette into something truly special! Then we move on to cooking, which must take place over a low heat: the egg, in fact, cooks slowly and will give off all its softness. But be careful, despite all our advice, you will have to rely on your sensitivity and understand when the right time is to fold the omelette into a crescent shape! It will be that moment that will allow you to obtain a light uniform browning on the outside, and a still creamy or, as they say in the jargon, “droopy” inside. Enrich the omelette with cheese or cured meats, maybe you can also try the vegetable omelette! Serve your omelette with fruit juice or freshly squeezed juice for a rich and complete breakfast…more “breakfast” than breakfast! A moment that can give you the right energy for the whole day… good and very nutritious!
