Omelette Secrets

THERE has been discussion from time immemorial as to the secrets of omelolle making. They pro few, and casy to remember,

Always keep a special pan for omelettes, a small frying pan being quite suitable. This must be kept scrupulously clean. Just before ranking the omelette, warm the pan and scour all brightly

Next, always unC palette knife for

poltalied. turning the omelette, and cook with even heat. Bear in mind, too, that perhaps the minia secrets of success are lightness and speed. Deat CARS only long enough to break the yolks and blend them with the whites. As for length of time for cooking, three minutes are ample for SIX CERS.

A Simple Recipe

the

Hero is a very Kimple but food onelolto recipe. Put a piece of bul- 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 mixtura in, shaking the pan all the time, and lifting the edges lo prevent the omelette sticking, When done the omelette should be 0 beautiful Troiden brown.

The

number of different omelettes one can make is legion, for all kinds

of foundations Can be used fine herbs, cheese, asparagus, mushrooms, spinach, cauliflower, kidney, and su on. The following is simplo and tasty. Take two eggs, a gill of milk, a teaspoonful of chopped pursley. and a little grated onton juice. Whisk to mix thoroughly. Heat 1 oz of butter in the ill ammoking hot, and pour the mixture in Run the knife round the outside to prevent adhering to the pan as before and to make the uncooked centre flow to- wards the ritz. When set fold care- fully and serve on a hot dish. Yolks and Whites Separately

There is one school of emelette making which declares the yolks and whites must be beaten separately, At any rate, that method" is cx- cellent for the following omelette. Beat the yolks and then the whites, and then beat together for a moment, adding sensoring to Hiking. Put the butter in the pan, add the eggs, and when they are just beginning to ret sprinkle with finely grated cheese. Fold and sprinkle with mare cheese before serving.

Boll and chop the tender parts of the with four asparagus and beat up exgs. Put the butter in the pan, and when hot add salt and turn the mixture in, and"

very lightly. together Add pepper and salt and pour into melled a frying pan in which some (not browned) butter is ready. For a savoury omelette she added to ea a dessertspoonful ench of thre
