Why do you add heavy cream to the eggs?
Some would say that you should use a splash of water in your eggs to make them fluffier, but I have not had success when I’ve used water in the past.
Every time that I have used heavy cream, my eggs are fluffier and it also adds more healthy fats to the recipe which makes it’s easier to stay within your daily macros.
What is the secret to making an omelette?
Some think that the secret to making a great omelette is to flip it over a minute or two after you pour the eggs into your hot pan.
I actually like to wait until the edges begin to cook and then I can easily slide the spatula underneath it and move it around so that it doesn’t burn or stick. Then, I let it cook for about a minute longer before I flip it over.
This method has not failed me after years of making omelets and I feel it is the best way to make them.
