The Argue About Omelet's Thread

[anniem]

My goodness, this important thread took off while I was elsewhere. @KSM is right - 2 eggs in a skillet. I’ve come to like stainless steel as well as cast iron. @StarrMountain ’s recipe looks very good. Butter is essential. @PolkaDot a scramble is not the same but is good. @GravitySucks a scramble is where one uses four, five, six eggs. @Bart Ell the Apostrophe Preservation Society has given up the ghost, but I’m glad to see you haven’t.
Now the question for argument - must an omelette have cheese? And who here thinks Velveeta counts?

I think fresh grated cheese is best. An omelet should have cheese, IMO

[JUAN]

I don’t eat omelettes because only two eggs are a waste of time, and I don’t eat cheese. Especially Velveeta.

@Pizzapunch  That's a nice omelet.  The eggs look fluffy and delicate.  Nothing's overcooked.  Let me know when I can come over for breakfast.

Chocolate Old Fashioned.

I think it's because they have a higher ratio of surface area, so more crunch - like waffles as opposed to  pancakes.  Plus, chocolate.

@PB  Hmmm...I don't think I've seen a doughnut like that before.  Looks like a Cruller.   Is that raised style or cake style?  Me, I'm not a fan of the cake doughnuts aside from the apple cider ones.  Those are yummy.

[ShayP]

I might do that too. I do have rye bread right over there!

@anniem  Ya know...since you mentioned rye bread, I think I'll have a Reuben for lunch.

I want to see pictures of not yet existing omelet! And BTW I use fine ground sea salt on my hashbrowns (((You can't see--salt!))) You say they look unseasoned but they're cooked in butter and a pinch of oil. Delicious! Fucking yummy, brudda

@KSM  I didn't take pics man.  BUT!  I used 3 eggs, mushrooms, spinach, pancetta, and swiss cheese.   Next time I WILL take pics and I will be regarded as 'the omelet master.'  It may be my destiny.

@juan  No and No.

[ShayP]

I’m no eggspurt, but this looks better than a @KSM omelette

@GravitySucks    Heck...THAT looks better than Christmas.

@juan  How about a frittata? Without the cheese and the Velveeta of course.

Heck if I know, I just eat them (it's not a cruller though).  These are pretty much in all the small independent donut shops around here.  Here's what the plain ones look like if that helps. 

Heh, perhaps @KSM could provide a Rorschach style response to this image as well..

You know what's especially horrible?  The donuts people bring to work from supermarkets like Safeway. 

They aren't deep fried at all, it's as though they make a donut shape out of lightly sweetened white bread, bake it, then add glaze, sprinkles, maple, chocolate, or whatever else.  Pass.

@ShayP Um, no meat in yours? You cannot start the day off without something that had parents. 

@DynamoHum I read what you said about my "limp" unappealing omelet. I know you're taking overseas shots at my manhood implying that perhaps I can't do sex good to folks for lengthy periods of time.

Let me explain balance and ratio to, you people. My picture showed a basic ham n cheeseer - everything inside was spread evenly as there was ham AND cheese in every bite but just enough so not to OVERPOWER THE EGG which is a common mistake most people make.

@GravitySucks Yes I would eat her off of her. WhattaMyCrazy? I would eat one of my omelets off of her.

@PB  Well at least they wiped it.

Very nice!  And glazed?

I can assure you SIIIIIIIRRRRRR that I was making no implication whatsoever regarding your todger, and was merely describing the miserable looking eggy creation sans any other addition therein. A good omelette is busting at the seams with gooey loveliness enticing you in like Sirens on the cliff to hapless sailors.

I want to savour it with my eyes not give it a pity eat!

I did however enjoy the even colouring throughout the surface, but will also give a demerit for white bits.

A solid C.

Cheese goes throughout the omelette not just in the middle.
