Omelette Secrets
THERE hai been discursion from time immemorial as to the secreta of omelette making. They are few, and caxy 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 omelette, warm the pan and scour fill brightly polished.

Ing the omelette, and cook with even heat. Bear in mind, too, that perhaps the main secrets of success are lightness and speed. Bent eggs only long enough to brook the yolks and blend them with the whites. As for length of time for cooking, three minutes are ample for Rix eggs..
A Simple Recipe
Here is a very simple but good omelette recipe. Put a piece 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

ba a beautiful golden brown.
The number of different omelettes, one can make is legion, for all kinds of foundations can be used--Ane herbs, cheese, asparagus, mushrooms, spinach, cauliflower, kidney, and su on. The following is simple tasty. Take two eggs, a gill of
and
milk, parsley.
a teaspoonful of chopped and B
lo trated onion juice. Whisk to mix thoroughly. Heat 1 oz of butter in the pan till smoking hot, and pour the mixture in. Run the knife round the outside to prevent adhering to the pan us before and to make the uncooked centre flow to- wards the rim. When set fold caro- fully and serve on hot dish. Yolks and Whites Separately
There is one school of omelette making which declares the yolks and whites must be beaten separaty. At any rate, that method is ex- cellent for the following omelette. Beat the yolks and then the whites. and then beat together for a moment, adding seasoning to liking. Put the butter in the pan, add the eggs, and when they are Just beginning to set sprinkle with finely grated cheese. Fold and sprinkle with more cheese before serving. Asparagus Omelete
Now that asparagus is obtainable, we ought to make one of the most
delicious of ali omelettes, asparagus. Boil and chop the tender parts of the asparagus and beat up with four eggs, Put the butter in the pan, and when hot add salt and pepper, then turn the mixture is, and when cook- ed send to table immediately.
This is the way followed by Mme. Poulard Alne a well-known hotel
In a on Mont St. Michel,
Break into a basin the eggs required. Beat yolks and whites together very lightly.
Add pepper and salt and pour into frying pan in which some melted (not browned) butter is ready. For ! a savoury omelette she added to three eggs a dessertspoonful each of chopped onion, chopped parsley, and chopped cooked ham, bealing the eggs first, then adding the other in- gredients.

She did not cease shaking the pan, and folded over the omelette while
the centre was still quite wel. When beating the eggs and mixture
she would count twenty never more, and the whisking would be sufficient.
