Hi, Mac,

My specialty is omelets which both my wife and I enjoy. Nothing too elaborate here, but my "trick" (if it can even be called that) is to add about 1 part milk to 4 or 5 parts egg, and then whip everything together. Of course using butter to grease the pan improves the flavor as well.

I also bring a lid for my pan whenever I can. I turn down the heat fairly low, and cover for a while with all the ingredients inside. Gives everything a good even cooking.

Of course you need a good thick pan for this. A flimsy little light weight pan won't cut it if you want a decent omelet.
