💭 Expert Tips

• Whisk the eggs well to ensure that they are fully combined and aerated. This will help create a light and fluffy texture.
• Use a casserole dish that is the appropriate size. If the dish is too large, the omelet may become dry and overcooked.
• Allow the omelet to rest for a few minutes before serving to help it set.
• Consider adding spinach, tomatoes, or onions to give the dish extra flavor and nutrition.
• Don't overcook the omelet. It should be slightly firm to the touch but still moist and tender.
• If using vegetables that release moisture, such as fresh mushrooms or tomatoes, consider sautéing them in a separate pan before adding them to the egg mixture. This will prevent the omelet from becoming watery.
• Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, microwave on high for 30 seconds to 1 minute, or until heated through.
