Omelet Experiment
This was an experiment to see if an omelet could be cooked the “John Way” on anything other than a teflon pan. The “John Way” to cook and omelet means that you cook scrambled eggs, flip the scrambled eggs to cook the other side, put the desired ingredients on one half, fold the other half on top and then move the result to a plate.

3 eggs each

Eggs scrambled

Each pan was heated to 7 out of 10 on stove and then I melted 1 tablespoon of butter in each pan
![Page 14: Omlette experiment](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032502/55b9b79fbb61eb070f8b456e/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Once the butter was melted the scrambled eggs were poured in and allowed to cook for 3 minutes

…and then flipped, the heat was reduced to low (1 out of 10)

Happy farms Mexican style cheese bought at Aldi’s

The cheese, cooked sausage, peppers, and onions were placed on one side, then the other side was folded over and placed on a plate

Dishes after cleanup, notice Bar Keeper’s Friend was needed to clean the stainless steel pans
![Page 22: Omlette experiment](https://reader031.vdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022032502/55b9b79fbb61eb070f8b456e/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Both the copper pan and the teflon pan made good tasting omelets the “John Way” without excessive stickiness which is sometimes a problem for non-teflon pans. Cleanup was easy as well for both pans. The teflon pan made a cosmetically nicer omelet than the copper pan, I attribute this mainly to the larger diameter of the teflon pan which created a larger, easier to fold omelet.!Further experiments might include using cast iron or stainless steel pan, as well as using a copper pan with a larger diameter.
