‘Tornado Omelette’ Is The Fancy But Surprisingly Easy Egg Hack That Is Sure To Impress
msn ^

Posted on 12/06/2021 6:37:22 AM PST by mylife

Up your brunch game by perfecting this Korean dish that’s sure to impress your friends and family, particularly little kids. The tornado omelette is the latest food hack that’s taken TikTok by storm, joining the ranks of bacon hacks, cake hacks, and countless others.

The top-liked tornado omelette video has over 90K likes, and numerous other users have tried the trend. Yes, some have failed, (some terribly) but there is a trick to the perfect omelette. To perfect this dish, you’ll need to have the proper cookware, practice the technique, and have some patience. Otherwise, it’s pretty simple.

How To Make The Tornado Omelette First, you’ll need a non-stick pan (we love this PFOA-free option) and a pair of chopsticks. Most people cook about two eggs per omelette, but depending on the size of your pan, make as many or as few that will fit. Preferably, use a small pan and cook about two eggs at a time.

Next, you’ll crack your eggs into a bowl, and mix them like you would a regular ol’ omelette. You can add milk, cream, salt, and pepper, or nothing if you prefer. Just make sure the eggs are completely mixed!

Add oil or butter to the pan and heat to medium to medium-high. The next part is somewhat tricky, but choose your technique and go with it! After the eggs have cooked for a few minutes, and are still somewhat runny, you will start to “tornado” your omelette. You can leave the pan stationary, and using both hands with a chopstick in each, start at the edge of the pans on opposite sides. Bring the chopsticks into the middle of the pan. Then, twist slowly around until the center is stacked on top of the rest of the egg.

I told my Son when he was 5 “If you master the egg you’ll never be hungry or sad”

Looks interesting, even cool. But within 2 minutes it is chewed up like a traditional omelet...and then you should see what my body does to it (or not).

Adding milk or cream to eggs for an omelette or scrambled should be outlawed!

I add half and half just to loosen them and for volume, if scrambled, but usually eat sunny side up

As long as it doesn’t come out runny. Runny scrambled eggs are an abomination.
