Omelette Secrets

*

SHERE has been discussion from

time immemorial as to the secrets of omelette making. They are few, and easy to remember.

Always keep a special pan for omelettes, a small frying pan being quite suitable. This must be kept

scrupulously clean. Just before

making the emelette, warm the pan and scour till brightly polished.

Next, always use a palette knife for urning the omelette, and cook with even heat. Bear in mind, too, that perhaps the main secrets of success are lightness and speed. Beat the eats only long enough to break the yolks and blend them with the whiten. An for length of time for cooking, three minutes are ample for | alx CGGS.

A Simple Recipe

"

itere is very simple but good omelette recipe. Put a plece of but- ter about the size of a walnut in the pan and warm. Beat up four eggs with a little salt and pepper to taste. When the butter is warm pour the mixture in, shaking the pan all the time, and lifting the edges to prevent the omelette sticking. When done the omeletic should be beautiful golden brown.

The number of different omelettes one can make is legion, for all kinds of foundations can be used fine herbs, elicere, asparagus, mushrooms, spinach, cauliflower, kidney, and so on. The following is simple and tasty. Take two eggs, a gill of milk, a teaspoonful of chopped parsley. and a little grated onion juice. Whisk to mix thoroughly. Heat 1 oz of butter in the pan smoking hot, and pour the mixture in. Run the kolfe round the outside to prevent adhering to the pan as before and
