Today's omelette!
http://t.co/2J3uy1Nl
If you followed my directions in the previous omelette posts and still ended up with a weird-looking omelette, take a look at that photo and feel good. :)
I think the problem is my pan-- while it works for the fluffy diner omelette where you don't stir the egg, just melt a bunch of butter and pour in the egg, it's no longer working for the variety where you stir the eggs around. I believe the nonstick surface on my cheap-ass Target pan is no longer nonstick. :) So when I stir the egg and incorporate the butter into the egg, it doesn't form a layer between the egg and the pan, and the surface of the pan grips the egg.
There's a stainless steel pan on the registry, and if nobody gives it to us, we'll just get a replacement ourselves, and I'll be able to make 3 and 4- egg omelettes again without them sticking to the pan. Till then I'll just have to make 2- egg omelettes in the 8-inch pan.
( Oh, and the taste? Still fabulous!)
