Danish Omelet Recipes

Steps:

• Fry bacon in a med-sized non-stick skillet till crisp. Remove bacon to drain on paper towel. Remove any rendered bacon fat in excess of 3 tablespoons When bacon has cooled, crumble into sml pieces & set aside. (NOTE: I've not had Danish bacon, but it is sold canned, is lean & well-flavored. The recipe says to reserve all bacon fat in the skillet if using Danish bacon, but I amended that to allow for using most US types of bacon.).
• Beat eggs w/milk, flour, salt & chives. Reheat bacon fat & pour egg mixture into it.
• When the omelet begins to set, sprinkle the crumbled bacon on the top & lift cooked omelet edges w/a fork so the uncooked portion runs underneath. Cont cooking till the eggs are set & the edges golden brown. Fold the omelet & serve hot, cutting the omelet in half to serve 2 hearty appetites or 3 wedges for less hearty appetites.
• For a firmer omelet, turn out onto a plate& return the omelet to the skillet, uncooked side down. Brown lightly & serve.
• NOTE: Not a part of the recipe, but I like cream cheese w/this & add a smear of it to half the omelet b4 I fold it over.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°F.
• Cut 4 slices of bacon in half.
• Cut remaining bacon into 2" pieces.
• Place all bacon in a 10" oven-proof skillet and cook until crisp.
• Drain on paper towels, shaping the 8 large pieces into curls.
• Tilt frying pan to coat with fat.
• Drain excess fat.
• Line pan with small pieces of bacon.
• Beat eggs with flour, 3 teaspoons chives, salt and pepper.
• Beat in milk.
• Pour over bacon in pan.
• Place in oven and bake 35-40 minutes, or until golden and set.
• Top with bacon curls and remaining chives.
• Serve in wedges, garnished with tomato wedges.

Steps:

• Separate the egg whites and the egg yolks in two separate bowls. You'll only need 3 yolks, so discard the other 2 or reserve for another use.
• Whisk the egg yolks until they become homogenous and pale in color. Set aside.
• Transfer the egg whites to a large bowl and whisk until they triple in size and become white with medium peaks.
• Carefully fold the egg yolks into the egg whites until fully incorporated.
• Pour the egg mixture into a medium nonstick frying pan with a lid. Cook over medium-low heat until bottom of omelet has set, about 5 minutes.
• Lift up each side of the omelette and drop a tablespoon of butter underneath.
• Cover the pan and cook for another 5 minutes, or until the top of the omelet has set.
• Remove the lid and season the omelet with salt and pepper. Remove the pan from the heat.
• Fold the omelette onto a plate and sprinkle with chives.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Crack eggs into a medium bowl. Add 1 tablespoon water, and salt and pepper. Whisk with a fork until egg whites are incorporated into yolks. Mix in herbs, if using.
• Place a 8- to 9-inch skillet (preferably nonstick or seasoned carbon steel) over high heat. Melt butter until bubbling subsides.
• Pour in egg mixture and reduce heat to medium. With the back of a fork or a heatproof rubber spatula, whisk eggs around skillet until the bottom begins to set. This takes only a few seconds. Add any fillings, if using.
• Tilt skillet and either bang or flip egg over itself. Use fork or spatula if necessary to complete folding in half or thirds. Angle the skillet and a serving plate together, and flip omelet onto plate.
