Ingredients for Plain Omelet Recipe 2

  • 4 eggs
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • Few grains pepper
  • 4 tablespoons hot water
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1 1/2 cups thin white sauce

Instructions

  1. Separate yolks from whites.
  2. To the yolks, add salt, pepper, and hot water and beat until thick and lemon-colored.
  3. Beat whites until stiff, cutting and folding them into first mixture until they have taken up mixture.
  4. Heat omelet pan and butter sides and bottom.
  5. Turn in the mixture, spreading evenly. Place on the range and let it cook slowly, occasionally turning the pan so the omelet may brown evenly.
  6. When well "puffed" and delicately browned underneath, place pan on center of warm oven to finish cooking the top.
  7. The omelet is cooked when it is firm to the touch.
  8. If it clings to the finger like the beaten white of egg, it needs to cook longer.
  9. Fold, and turn on hot platter, and pour the thin white sauce around the omelet.
  10. Milk is sometimes used in place of hot water, but hot water makes a more tender omelet.
  11. A few grains baking powder are used by some cooks to hold up an omelet.
