Agreed lol.. wish they'd (all YT chefs) just be honest about how much butter to use (or oil for other recipes) She literally has 1.5 or 2TBsp (4.5-6Tsp) of butter minimum in there, but she says 1.5Tsp lol I don't know why they all do this, but they do.. it's sad.
I prefer the drier scrambled eggs over he wetter omelet. I also use cream cheese as one of my surprise ingredients Cream cheese scrambled eggs is hard to find but once someone who loves cream cheese tries is, they usually prefer it. I have seen it on a local breakfast menu called “the Wisconsin scramble.”
I love Julia's attempt after Lan's explanation. It actually added a bit of tension that you wouldn't necessarily expect from a cooking demonstration. Also, love that there were no swaps/Julia's first attempt wasn't perfect (but still very good). ATK is the gold standard of teaching people how to cook.
Agreed. Julia is a trained cook and almost certainly knows how to make a French omelette already, but the little bit of theater here is helpful. Nice to see a recipe demonstrated by its creator, and then attempted by another person, it's a good format for making it seem achievable and accessible.
Hey Lan, thank you! I've been trying to improve my omelettes for about a year. I struggled with when to turn the heat off. Cooking the eggs longer like you did and then turning off the heat for only a short amount of time produced a great balance between the interior and exterior of the omelette. I can't believe it turned out so well on my first try. This video is legit, much appreciated.
I'm on a tight budget right now, my breakfast of choice are eggs and as soon as I search for egg recipes this comes on. This is perfect, now I practice this every day. More videos with this format please.
I'm not on a tight budget and I fix eggs every morning. So delicious. So many ways to make them. Add some toast and you have a meal that even an entitled billionaire would enjoy.
Yeah. I've been practicing and I'm getting there. I usually use two eggs, it seems a joke but for some reason three works way better. I place a slice of sausage next to the cheese and it's even better.
Thank you for making this video, I am 66 years old and I finally know how to make an omelette thanks to Lan. I made one today it was a huge ham and cheese omelette and it was delicious, it would not have passed muster though because it wasn't a 9 or 10 but it was close. I love all your videos but especially Lan's segments, thanks again.
I made my Sunday morning omelet using this method. It works perfectly - getting the eggs spread out after scrambling just before they fully cook is the key!
I make a pretty good omelet but I over fill it with sauteed veggies so I never get the "dismount" correct. I like this version of cooking the eggs separately as you demonstrated, then add the filling and let it set. Melting the cheese first is an eye opener!! Well done
Got some helpful tips there. I haven't ever pre-melted the cheese, and I don't stir it quite as aggressively as it is cooking because I don't want to mess up the shape, but here she shapes after it is cooked most of the way. I do like to blend cheddar with something like havarti, gouda, or fontina, which can impact the flavor and meltability profile.
I'm a pretty experienced home cook, my omelets come out good but inconsistent, I tried this method 3 times now, consistent and beautful and even and creamy everytime. thanks!
Was a little frustrated attempting to make a better omelet and I thought it was my age (77 male) and this worked perfectly. Maybe using a fork allows more air when pre mixing due to the fork times as well as having the eggs at room temp. Simple/quick/satisfying. Thank TK..
Is there anything Lan can not make better? She always is the best person to explain the technique in a way that is knowledgeable and approachable. I've been using a similar technique for years, though I use a rubber whisk and move the pan for the first bit of cooking then I use a small spatula on the finish. The precook of cheese works or use some flavored goats cheese that you don't need to premelt. I haven't ordered an omelet out since I learned how to properly cook one as they are always just brown over cooked eggs at most omelet stands. Often at a nice hotels omelet stand I will ask if i can do my own and it's funny to see others ask for it be done that way after me.
Worked great for me, especially the tip about thickness and warming the ingredients (including cheese!) Before adding. I've been using the cover/steam method shown here for a while, but that last bit was a big help to setting the inside curds.
Just followed these steps and gotta say my omelet came out 🔥 The tips work especially warming up the 🧀 Tomorrow I'm going to load it up with 🥓 and veggies 👍🏻
Interesting. That smooth exterior on Lan's omelet looks amazing. So, say if I wanted spinach, onions, and tomatoes, I should just saute those up first and have them hot and ready to go (along with the melted cheese strip) before proceeding. Learned a lot here...going to experiment. Thanks Lan and ATK!
While visiting my grandma say 20 years ago, she made me an omelet with just a bit of pepper and salt added, nothing else. It was so perfect I vowed to never add another ingredient until I get to that level. Maybe this video will help 😀
For the most part, I love ATK and especially Lam’s techniques and insights. However, I find the idea of what a perfect omelette is - rather pretentious, (is that the word I’m looking for?) Cooking is partly science and a lot of art. I never learned the science or techniques until 40 years later when TH-cam became available. I learned by watching my aunts cook. And then doing it myself since I was 8 and had to learn to cook to survive as both my parents worked. Perfect omelette? I’ve heard it said a number of times that it’s the most difficult thing to cook perfectly. Darn it. I started my cooking life (at 8) by making eggs…sunny side, omelette, scrambled…and I have to say it’s one of my favorite dishes. Perfect omelette just scares people into not wanting to try. I don’t see what’s so hard about making a good omelette. Who cares about perfect omelette. Who’s the judge of perfection when it comes to omelettes? When it comes to cooking, like art, sure there are masterpieces and then meh…but I think it’s not that difficult to make a really good omelette with a little practice and some heart. But don’t make it so intimidating by saying the perfect omelette is so difficult. Sometimes I wonder who gives the right to decide what is perfect or not when it comes to cooking. If it tastes amazing and if it moves people’s hearts and (stomachs), then I think it’s a job well done.
I add a tsp of water to the eggs before whipping. This helps my eggs steam a little without catching on the sides of the pan, eliminating covering the eggs for one min. Melting the cheese is a great tip. Thank you, Lan!
I made one today - but realized I forgot the filling when stirring the eggs. Even so, it turned out great. I used a carbon steel crepe pan and had no issues with the low sides.
Thanks so nuch for this fluffy Omelette recipie.I use a flat Teflon coated pan,and put in a thick slice of french brie,flip the Omelette over,wait till the cheese melts..mmmmh delicious..❤😊
I make my omelets in a sushi style. Also 3 eggs often with an added yolk, also salted, but beaten with chopsticks until smooth. Then, on a two-burner, very well seasoned anodized aluminum griddle, in ghee, over medium heat, I pour the egg out in a rectangular shape. Add my fillers over the egg base, then roll the omelet up and lightly flatten it with my spatula. I continue to cook it until I have great color on both sides before serving. Our favorite is shredded leftover chicken, chopped Anaheim green chili, chopped scallion, white shoe peg corn, fresh torn cilantro leaves, and Jack or Cheddar-Jack cheese. I cover the omelet with warmed, mild green enchilada sauce, a little more cheese, sour cream, and garnish with more cilantro or scallion. I serve it with vegetarian refried beans on the side. None better, anywhere, in our book.
This is a great explanation of making the most of residual heat. The technique is what makes this one so approachable. I have a little tamagoyaki pan, and have really had fun learning different ways to create omelets with it. I think this method in general will make an easier omelet experience. Just let the pan and the residual heat help you create the smooth texture on the surface. No fuss, no muss.
I came into my apprentice after cooking in steak houses and at home. It was a bustling business full of high stress for the cooks and especially the apprentices. One day the head chef/owner walked in and asked "who here knows how to cook a decent omelet"? One other guy raised his hand and I was damn near dismissed until I asked, "French, Denver or other wise?" The chef snapped around and put me and the other guy on the burners and we did a face off and cooked a few different omelets. The chef liked my French and I was chosen and made Omelets 3 times a week for Mayor Wellington Web..The chef ordered 4 omelet pans just for me..
Can you also comment on Julia Child's technique of briskly moving the pan back and forth until the eggs are cooked? I've tried it a few times and was quite impressed with its efficacy.
Study Jacques Pepin and Alex French Guy Cooking French Omelette videos; they are the best. It took me months to get everything right, but I finally got there.
When I do mine I take the skin off a sausage and flatten and dice it, fry it with spring onions then pour the eggs over the top, then put cheese and spinach in it whilst it’s still wet! Tasty and healthy
As someone who has mastered the omelette over years of practice and watching TH-cam (why TH-cam recommended this immediately), a tip I have is to use one hand-mixer beater attachment by hand instead of a whisk or fork.
..or try this simple alternative: turn down the heat and cover it. I use a pizza pan. No stirring. Flip it when it's firmed up, but still wet on top. Then immediately place the cheese (non pre-melted). Replace pan cover for 30 seconds, then fold and serve.
I messed up the dismount on my first try, but I was able to make it look okay. Seriously though, this is a great method, and the omelet tasted great. I will practice more to perfect the dismount. Thanks for the great method, and I think this is the best omelet tutorial I've found on TH-cam.
Love this technique. I make a 5 omelet every morning in an antique cast iron pan. It’s properly seasoned so the eggs slide right off the pan, and I am not ingesting any Teflon. Thanks to Lan I hope to make a 10 tomorrow!
You shouldn't ingest Teflon on medium heat unless you are using a pan that has scratches or gouges in it. Cast iron is good but a nonstick is better because it doesn't take as long to heat to make an omelet.
Lan explains things so clearly and succinctly, and with such a soothing voice... She's an excellent teacher.
Exactly what I came here to say !
I’ve only just discovered her and I think she’s fantastic!
She should be on the calm app!
Really hoping she's a car/home improvement/history enthusiast so I can see those videos next!
Yeah I really enjoy listening to Lan.
more videos by Lan please. love her instruction, love her tips, and love her humor
Lan is a fantastic teacher! Calm, precise she doesn't do a lot of fussy extra movements when she explains the process.
Agreed lol.. wish they'd (all YT chefs) just be honest about how much butter to use (or oil for other recipes)
She literally has 1.5 or 2TBsp (4.5-6Tsp) of butter minimum in there, but she says 1.5Tsp lol

Cream cheese scrambled eggs is hard to find but once someone who loves cream cheese tries is, they usually prefer it. I have seen it on a local breakfast menu called “the Wisconsin scramble.”

FACTS
I like the underlying info rather than just memorizing techniques. She is a good teacher.
She explains the science behind it.
Lan Lam is the best to listen to and she is so clear about everything. Thanks for the tips.
Lan Lam is an excellent speaker and cooking instructor. It's a pleasure watching her.
Lan's videos are some of the best cooking videos out there.

Okay, I've made hundreds, if not thousands, of omelets, but I have NEVER thought of pre-melting the cheese. What a game changer! Thank you so much!
Exactly! I’ve precooked veggies before, but never thought about pre melting the cheese.
Same and me neither. Definitely going to try this tomorrow morning
Lan is the Queen of Microwaves!
U should pre cook the eggs in the shell. It's a super game changer
Yeah, thats because by the time the omelet is done your cheese is a sheet of rubber if you follow these steps
Lan is a pleasure to watch and listen to....very well explained!
I tried this method today for the first time and I think I nailed it! Wish I could post a picture! Thanks Lan!!!
America's Test Kitchen has taught me so much about cooking but the omelet is the one I appreciate most. So many methods. Can't wait to try this one!
I'm on a tight budget right now, my breakfast of choice are eggs and as soon as I search for egg recipes this comes on. This is perfect, now I practice this every day. More videos with this format please.

@@EnterMyNameHereHope you're better now. Wish you a good 2024.
Yeah. Not that tight, don't know what's gonna happen at work still somewhat better tho. Thanks. Happy new year, amigo 😊
Eh, just do scrambled eggs. It achieves the same imo and is mroe creamy. You can even add the cheese.
This video gets a 10 out of 10 for omelet tips and the channel too ❤🎉
Lan Is The Best. She's really knows what she doing. Taught me so much.
Lan is an amazing teacher, and very talented cook.😊
Lan is my absolutely favorite trainer, she has so many tips and makes cooking very easy. A fan for Lan.

Well done
Maybe a bigger skillet and more eggs to go with your over filled veggies would help. More omelette to enjoy!
That would do it 😉
I add cheese on top, turn down to low/sim, cover with foil and the heat melts it without burning the eggs.
Me pasa igual
Don't put your filling in the center. Offset them so they get wrapped in the first fold. Much less of your filling will come out with the 'dismount'
Excellent video; excellent teacher. Makes me believe I can do this. Can’t wait to try.
I tried this recipe, and OMG, the best omlet I ever had.

Lan lam is exceptionally good
I just did this. This omelet blew my mind. I had no idea it would be somehow so creamy and delicious. Amazing. Thank you so much for this video!
This is the first time I've seen an America's Test Kitchen video and it was fantastic. Thank you both for being informative and entertaining!
I'm a pretty experienced home cook, my omelets come out good but inconsistent, I tried this method 3 times now, consistent and beautful and even and creamy everytime. thanks!
As God as my witness, I never thought to melt the cheese BEFORE it got introduced to the omelet... Thanks, guys!
Love LAN !! She’s such an expert & easy to listen to !! I would love to see her do an omelette with peppers or ham !!
I made it and successfully completed the dismount. Thank you, Lan and #ATK . ❤🎉😊
This lady is excellent! It seems like an easy thing to cook, it is not easy to do right!
It took me 62 years to learn how to make a decent omelet. Now I nail it every time.

This is very similar to Julia Child’s method but the bit about warming fillings before adding them in is brilliant!
Julia wouldn’t have skimped on the 🧈
Or the Booze😂 Lol
My wife caught me watching this, now I have to make this for breakfast…probably every day🤓
It's 10:40 PM while I watch this..........and now I'm starving
372 Frenchmen watched this video, and all but one died. The surviving one is on life support.
Overcooked!
Oh gosh! That’s not really a simple French omelette!
That was a perfect American omelette!

Another great quick recipe. Thank you for your amazing channel.
Lan showing off those microwave skills from the techniquely video! I love it!

Perfect timing! just about an hour before lunch on Saturday. Thanks Lan
Awesome! Lan is definitely on the A team…can’t wait to make one tomorrow AM!!!
Wow. THAT was worth the few minutes it took to watch on 150% speed. I am so making omelets tomorrow morning.
Always love to learn from ATK! Very nice!

I do my omelettes in a well seasoned carbon steel pan with no problem. You can also make a two egg omelette in a smaller pan
This helped me get the closest to a French omelet than I’ve ever gotten! Thank you!
Go too Food Wishes
Does Lan have her own youtube or social media? Shes such an amazing teacher its insane
She is on Instagram
Thanks so much. The missing link for the texture i love in a omlette but couldnt figure out how they did it and i cant wait to try it
Don't stress it Julia, it looks delicious specialy if you add guacamole or Pico de Gallo sauce. Yum, yum que rico🤤
Thanks so nuch for this fluffy Omelette recipie.I use a flat Teflon coated pan,and put in a thick slice of french brie,flip the Omelette over,wait till the cheese melts..mmmmh delicious..❤😊
This is the only American cooking channel I trust.
Alton Brown?
@@mddell58 He's pretty much just children's entertainment.
Lidia Bastianich?
I love the explanation about the non stick pan.
I believe it's correct concise and very well illustrated.
Everytime a new GOOD omelet technique video posts online, Jacques Pepin gets a full-body tingle.
I sorta did this but not as clean as this example, will try it tomorrow! Thanks Lan!!!!
Wow, some amazing texture on those eggs!
I make my omelets in a sushi style. Also 3 eggs often with an added yolk, also salted, but beaten with chopsticks until smooth. Then, on a two-burner, very well seasoned anodized aluminum griddle, in ghee, over medium heat, I pour the egg out in a rectangular shape. Add my fillers over the egg base, then roll the omelet up and lightly flatten it with my spatula. I continue to cook it until I have great color on both sides before serving. Our favorite is shredded leftover chicken, chopped Anaheim green chili, chopped scallion, white shoe peg corn, fresh torn cilantro leaves, and Jack or Cheddar-Jack cheese. I cover the omelet with warmed, mild green enchilada sauce, a little more cheese, sour cream, and garnish with more cilantro or scallion. I serve it with vegetarian refried beans on the side. None better, anywhere, in our book.
Sounds delish - you have to make a video and upload it
Thank you - a most excellent tutorial. My family will appreciate it.
Time and again I am impressed by ATK's talent of taking something as simple as this and complicate the hell out of it for so little benefit, if any.
Lan is the best teacher!
Have flawless omelets for decades. But these techniques have improved my attempts to the fluffiest omelet ever. Thanks !!
This is a great explanation of making the most of residual heat. The technique is what makes this one so approachable. I have a little tamagoyaki pan, and have really had fun learning different ways to create omelets with it. I think this method in general will make an easier omelet experience. Just let the pan and the residual heat help you create the smooth texture on the surface. No fuss, no muss.
LAN, you have such sensible recipes. Basic but important
I came into my apprentice after cooking in steak houses and at home. It was a bustling business full of high stress for the cooks and especially the apprentices. One day the head chef/owner walked in and asked "who here knows how to cook a decent omelet"? One other guy raised his hand and I was damn near dismissed until I asked, "French, Denver or other wise?"

Finally an omelet technique that works - thank you, Lan! The beer analogy was brilliant:)
Finally a omelette I can make!!! Thanks ladies!!!
great job Lan! I like that Julia was asked to do it as well! it was not perfect, but that's the beauty of learning!
When I do mine I take the skin off a sausage and flatten and dice it, fry it with spring onions then pour the eggs over the top, then put cheese and spinach in it whilst it’s still wet! Tasty and healthy
Meanwhile i am making omlet - 3 minutes - perfectly seasoned - perfectly done - 2 minutes - im full and pleased. Its not nuclearscience.
As someone who has mastered the omelette over years of practice and watching TH-cam (why TH-cam recommended this immediately), a tip I have is to use one hand-mixer beater attachment by hand instead of a whisk or fork.
..or try this simple alternative: turn down the heat and cover it. I use a pizza pan. No stirring. Flip it when it's firmed up, but still wet on top. Then immediately place the cheese (non pre-melted). Replace pan cover for 30 seconds, then fold and serve.
No thanks. I like my omelet yellow on the outside - not BROWN!
@@jamesprior2496 Me, too. Low heat and it won't brown.
Very well done, great explanation. Lan is a 10 + !
I love that there was a quiz for Julia at the end. It makes me feel better about my attempt😅
I’ve been making omelette wrong. Tried this method and voila 👌
Thanks, made a great omelet at home doing this! One of the best I've ever made.
Military Culinary Specialists make the BEST Omelets in the world.
Absolutely love the way Lan cooks!
I messed up the dismount on my first try, but I was able to make it look okay. Seriously though, this is a great method, and the omelet tasted great. I will practice more to perfect the dismount. Thanks for the great method, and I think this is the best omelet tutorial I've found on TH-cam.

Love this technique. I make a 5 omelet every morning in an antique cast iron pan. It’s properly seasoned so the eggs slide right off the pan, and I am not ingesting any Teflon. Thanks to Lan I hope to make a 10 tomorrow!
You shouldn't ingest Teflon on medium heat unless you are using a pan that has scratches or gouges in it. Cast iron is good but a nonstick is better because it doesn't take as long to heat to make an omelet.
