Steps
- 1Create an omelet with a velvety texture reminiscent of crème brûlée. Begin by vigorously whisking fresh eggs in a medium bowl until fully blended, ensuring no visible strands of egg white are left, while being cautious not to overmix and introduce excess air. For extra refinement, strain the beaten eggs through a fine-mesh sieve into a small bowl.
- 2In an 8" nonstick skillet, add 1 tablespoon of butter and heat it over medium heat. It's important to use quality butter not only to prevent sticking but also to enhance the flavor of the omelet. Make sure the butter is melted without sizzling, as this indicates that the skillet is too hot.
