$101 vs $8 Omelet: Pro Chef & Home Cook Swap Ingredients | Epicurious

Expert chef Frank from the Institute of Culinary Education and home cook Emily are swapping materials and hoping for the best! We gave ketchup ambassador Emily $101 worth of ingredients and Frank's recipe notebook, then asked her to recreate his omelet as best she could. To lend a helping hand, food scientist Rose dialed in for a brief tutorial and pep talk. On the other side, Frank received a meager $8 worth of supplies and tried to improvise his way up to gourmet. Who’s got the huevos to succeed under these mixed up circumstances?

Cracking eggs doesn't have a perfect solution, it depends on the egg. Generally storebought eggs have a thick enough shell, that hitting on the side of your bowl will work the best, but for eggs straight from the farm, hitting them on a flat surface works the best. So when a chef says don't use the rim of your bowl, its because they have better ingredients.

4-5 cups is 1 - 1.25 litres. Watch him pour again, being generous I'd say maybe 2 - 3 cups. Basically a half litre. A pint for you backwards imperialists.

[@kawecksshenanigans8010]

Ian McCullough Are you asking me to make a pretentious omelette or...? I wouldn’t make an omelette that costs $101 that’s just silly. Food should be based solely on taste and the way the flavors roll over your pallet. I haven’t really though of making a super over the top omelette. If you give me a day to think about it I could give you something that would be truly delicious and not overly pricey just for the sake of being expensive.

Bangtan Sonyeondan sometimes you know that you don’t know something which is a known unknown, and sometimes you don’t even know that you don’t know something which is an unknown unknown. I’m actually impressed she used that terminology as it’s more commonly used in the sciences.
