PERFECT OMELET

Steps:
- Beat the eggs: Soak 3 large eggs for 5 minutes in hot-not scalding-tap water. This will ensure that the omelet cooks faster, and the faster an omelet cooks, the more tender it's going to be. Crack the eggs into a small bowl or large bowl-shaped coffee mug. Season with a pinch of fine salt. Beat the eggs gently with a fork.
- TIP: I prefer a fork to a whisk for omelets because I don't want to work air into the eggs: Air bubbles are insulators and can slow down cooking if you're not careful.
- Heat the pan: Heat a 10-inch nonstick saute pan over medium to high heat for 2 to 3 minutes. Add 1 teaspoon room-temperature unsalted butter. Once melted, spread the butter around the pan with a basting brush to ensure coverage.
- TIP: Heat your pan empty for a few minutes before adding the butter: Even a nonstick surface is pocked with microscopic pores that eggs can fill and grab hold of. Heat expands the metal, squeezing these openings shut.
- Add the eggs: Pour the eggs into the center of the pan and stir vigorously with a silicone spatula for 5 seconds. (Actually, it's not so much a matter of stirring with the spatula as holding the spatula relatively still and moving the pan around to stir the eggs.)
- Let them cook: As soon as curds begin to form (that's the stuff that looks like scrambled eggs), lift the pan and tilt it around until the excess liquid pours off the top of the curds and into the pan. Then use the spatula to shape the edge and make sure the omelet isn't sticking. Move the spatula around the edge of the egg mixture to help shape it into a round and loosen the edge. Then walk away. That's right-let that omelet sit unaccosted for 10 long seconds so it can develop a proper outer crust. Don't worry: Your patience will be rewarded.
- Finish the omelet: Time for the "jiggle" step: Simply shake the pan gently to make sure the omelet is indeed free of the pan. Lift up the far edge of the pan and snap it back toward you. Then use the spatula to fold over the one-third facing you.
- Change your grip on the pan handle from an overhand to an underhand and move to the plate, which you might want to lube with just a brief brushing of butter to make sure things don't bind up in transit. Slide the one-third farthest from you onto the plate and then ease the fold over. Imagine that you're making a tri-fold wallet out of eggs-because that's exactly what you're doing. And just ease the pan over. There, that wasn't so hard.

Steps:
- Separate the egg whites and the egg yolks in two separate bowls. You'll only need 3 yolks, so discard the other 2 or reserve for another use.
- Whisk the egg yolks until they become homogenous and pale in color. Set aside.
- Transfer the egg whites to a large bowl and whisk until they triple in size and become white with medium peaks.
- Carefully fold the egg yolks into the egg whites until fully incorporated.
- Pour the egg mixture into a medium nonstick frying pan with a lid. Cook over medium-low heat until bottom of omelet has set, about 5 minutes.
- Lift up each side of the omelette and drop a tablespoon of butter underneath.
- Cover the pan and cook for another 5 minutes, or until the top of the omelet has set.
- Remove the lid and season the omelet with salt and pepper. Remove the pan from the heat.
- Fold the omelette onto a plate and sprinkle with chives.
- Enjoy!

Steps:
- Season the beaten eggs well with salt and pepper. Heat the oil and butter in a non-stick frying pan over a medium-low heat until the butter has melted and is foaming.
- Pour the eggs into the pan, tilt the pan ever so slightly from one side to another to allow the eggs to swirl and cover the surface of the pan completely. Let the mixture cook for about 20 seconds then scrape a line through the middle with a spatula.
- Tilt the pan again to allow it to fill back up with the runny egg. Repeat once or twice more until the egg has just set.
- At this point you can fill the omelette with whatever you like - some grated cheese, sliced ham, fresh herbs, sautéed mushrooms or smoked salmon all work well. Scatter the filling over the top of the omelette and fold gently in half with the spatula. Slide onto a plate to serve.

Estimated Reading Time 6 mins
- Low-Calorie Bacon Omelet. You don't often find the words "low calorie" and "bacon" in the same sentence, but this omelet makes it possible. Swap out fatty pork bacon for the lighter turkey version, and use skim milk instead of full fat.
- Cheesy Pizza Omelet. Enjoy pizza for breakfast with this filling, saucy day-starter. Gooey mozzarella cheese, chopped pepperoni, and tomato sauce give it that signature Italian flavor that works great for breakfast, brunch, or breakfast-for-dinner.
- Asparagus and Gruyere Omelet. Tender asparagus and smoky gruyere make a beautiful match in this simple springtime omelet. Use thin asparagus stalks, which will cook quickly but keep a little bite.
- Diner-Style Denver Omelet. Many diners feature this meaty omelet that makes enough to serve two. It comes chock full of ham, bell peppers, onions, and cheddar cheese.
- Philly Cheeseteak Omelet. Chow down on Philly cheesesteak for breakfast, but without the carb-heavy bun. Philadelphia natives have strong opinions on the right kind of cheese to use, so consider yourself forewarned.
- Classic French Omelet. Master this simple French omelet for an easy dish that you can endlessly customize to perfection. We like it with bacon, cheddar, and herbs, but the sky's the limit.
- Country Garden Omelet. No meat? No problem. Omelets have plenty of protein to tide you over until lunch, even without adding extra ingredients. Diced tomatoes, shallot, and cheddar cheese give this one lovely garden flavor, but you can add additional vegetables if you have them on hand.
- Kosher Mushroom and Onion Omelet. This umami mushroom and onion omelet tastes great for breakfast or brunch, whether you keep kosher or not. Earthy crimini mushrooms work well, but you can use other varieties if you can't find the artisanal variety.
- Hearty Chicken Omelet. Toss shredded leftover chicken into this quick and easy omelet for a hearty flavor that's a little different than your classic diner favorite.
- Egg White Greek Omelet. Using egg whites lightens up this delicious Greek omelet, but don't think it shortchanges the flavor. Salty feta cheese and kalamata olives, juicy cherry tomatoes, and iron-rich spinach make it taste just like the islands.
