Recipe instructions

Step 1

Step 1
Prepare the necessary products. Be sure to wash your eggs, as even seemingly clean shells harbor harmful bacteria. How can you tell if an egg is fresh? Break into a container. First of all, there should be no unpleasant odor. The white of fresh eggs will be clear and clear. The yolk should not spread and will be shiny, convex, and uniform.

Step 2

Step 2
Combine eggs and salt in a container. The temperature of the eggs, in this case, does not play a special role. They can be refrigerated or at room temperature. Pour in warm or cold milk. It is important that it is not hot, otherwise the egg mixture will curdle. Lightly stir everything with a whisk until smooth. Do not use aluminum containers for whipping. The white in it will darken, and the yolk will turn greenish. Also, do not beat with a mixer, otherwise the omelette will not turn out as fluffy.

Step 3

Step 3
Lightly grease the baking dish with refined vegetable oil or butter so that the omelette does not burn and easily separates from the walls of the dish when removed. What is the best form to use? I used a ceramic rectangular container, but you can use a glass ovenproof or cast iron container. Forms made from these materials heat up slowly, so the dish is baked evenly and does not burn.

Step 4

Step 4
Please note that during baking the omelette will grow by about 1/3. Therefore, the baking dish should have high sides and a small diameter. Pour the egg mixture into it.

Step 5

Step 5
The smaller the size of the utensil you use, the taller and fluffier the omelette will be. Turn on the oven in advance (10-15 minutes before cooking).

Step 6

Step 6
I cook the omelette at 250°C for 15-20 minutes, but if you have doubts, you can preheat the oven to 160-180°C and cook for about 30-40 minutes. Do not open the oven while baking, otherwise the omelette will fall off. How to check its readiness? A golden crust should form on the surface. Pierce the omelette with a toothpick; it should not be liquid inside. Remove from oven. Brush the top with butter. The finished omelette will fall a little, this is how it should be.
