Description

A classic French omelette aux fines herbes, concise and striking, like a blend of the laws of physics with poetry. A good omelette should be creamy and slightly gooey on the inside. To achieve this, first, avoid overcooking the omelette in the pan; second, once the eggs start to thicken, you can add a small piece of butter and a bit of grated cheese, such as Emmental, in the center of the omelette. The list of herbs typically added to the omelette is quite extensive and depends on the season. However, parsley is almost always included.

Ingredients

Chicken Egg - 3 pieces
Parsley - 0.2 oz
Dill - 0.2 oz
Butter - 0.7 oz
Salt - to taste
White Pepper (whole) - to taste

Step by Step guide

Step 1

Mix the eggs with salt, pepper, and chopped herbs.

Step 2

Melt the butter in a skillet.

Step 3

Pour the eggs into the skillet with melted butter as soon as it starts to sizzle vigorously. Once the omelet begins to thicken, fold the edges toward the center with a spatula, then remove from heat and let it sit for a few seconds on the residual heat in the skillet.
