Food Labs Fancy Omelet

Filling options: - [ ] Young cheeses of all kinds (I like cheddar, Jack, blue, feta, Gruyère, Brie, and goat cheeses): Grate or crumble. If using in conjunction with other cooked ingredients, toss with them in a small bowl after parcooking them; the residual heat will help start the melting process. - [ ] Hard grating cheeses like Parmigiano-Reggiano, Cotija, and Pecorino Romano: Grate on a Microplane and add to the raw eggs. - [ ] Cured meats like sausage, ham, and bacon: Cut into ½-inch pieces or nuggets and parcook in butter (let bacon cook in its own fat) until crisp on the edges and well browned. - [ ] Firm vegetables like onions, shallots, bell peppers, and hot peppers: Dice and soften in butter. - [ ] Tomatoes: Dice, salt, and drain. - [ ] Tender leafy vegetables like spinach and arugula: Sauté in butter, with a bit of minced garlic if desired. - [ ] Tender squashes like zucchini and summer squash: Sauté in butter. - [ ] Asparagus: Cut into ¼-inch slices on the bias and sauté in butter. - [ ] Scallions: Thinly slice whites and sauté in butter; thinly slice greens and incorporate into the filling or reserve for garnish. - [ ] Mushrooms: Slice thin and sauté in butter until the moisture has evaporated and the mushrooms are well browned. - [ ] Herbs: Add directly to the raw eggs.

Instructions

Step 1
Combine the eggs, egg yolk, salt, pepper, milk, and herbs, if using, in a medium bowl and whisk until homogeneous and frothy, about 1 minute. Allow to rest at room temperature for at least 15 minutes. The eggs should darken in color significantly.
Step 2
Add two-thirds of the butter to the eggs. Melt the remaining butter in an 8-inch nonstick skillet over low heat. Add the egg mixture to the skillet and cook, stirring slowly and constantly with a silicone spatula, scraping the eggs off the bottom and sides of the skillet, until the eggs have begun to set, about 2 minutes.

Step 3
Continue cooking, stirring and scraping, until the eggs are just firm enough to hold their shape when you draw the spatula through them. Shake the pan to distribute the eggs evenly over the bottom and then, holding the handle so that the pan rests at a slight angle, rap the pan against the stove so that the eggs are thicker on one side of the pan than the other. Remove from the heat, cover, and let the eggs set to the desired consistency, about 1 minute.

Step 4
Remove the lid and, using the spatula, carefully roll the omelet, starting from the thicker side, then tuck the ends under. Carefully turn the omelet out onto a plate (it helps to hold the plate in one hand and the pan in the other), readjust the shape, and serve immediately.
