SOUFFLé OMELET WITH SPINACH AND BRIE

Steps:

• Separate the egg whites and yolks into two medium bowls.
• In the egg yolks, whisk together the yolks, milk, and a pinch each of the salt and pepper until just combined.
• Use a handheld mixer to beat the egg whites until they are stiff peak (about 1 1/2 minutes). Using a spatula, gently fold the egg whites into the yolk mixture until just combined - do not over fold - you'll still be able to see some of the egg whites and that's OK.
• In a 10-12 inch non-stick skillet (I used 10 inch and it was a thick omelet), melt 1 tablespoon of the butter over medium heat. Add the egg mixture and smooth it evenly and gently to fill the pan.
• Cook without moving it or stirring until the middle just starts to set, about 3-4 minutes.
• Add the spinach and Brie to one half of the omelet, cover the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes until the cheese just begins to melt. Carefully (I used a spatula on either side) fold the empty side over the filled side to enclose. Cook for 1 minute.
• Remove the pan from the heat and slide the omelet onto a plate.
• In a small saucepan, melt the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter and add the honey. Stir until melted and combined. Remove from heat and stir in a pinch of kosher salt.
• Drizzle the omelet with as much of the sauce as you want (to taste) and top with the blueberries. Serve immediately.

SPINACH AND GARLIC OMELET

Steps:

• Wash the spinach and wilt in a frying pan over medium-high heat. The water remaining on the spinach leaves after washing will be sufficient. Drain, allow to cool and squeeze out excess water. Chop medium-fine and toss with half the garlic and salt and pepper to taste.
• Break the eggs into another bowl and beat with a fork or a whisk until they are frothy. Whisk in the remaining garlic, salt and pepper to taste and 2 to 3 teaspoons milk.
• Heat an 8-inch nonstick omelet pan over medium-high heat. Add 2 teaspoons olive oil. Hold your hand an inch or two above the pan, and when it feels hot, pour the eggs into the middle of the pan, scraping every last bit into the pan with a rubber spatula. Swirl the pan to distribute the eggs evenly over the surface. Shake the pan gently, tilting it slightly with one hand while lifting up the edges of the omelet with the spatula in your other hand, to let the eggs run underneath during the first few minutes of cooking.
• As soon as the eggs are set on the bottom, sprinkle the spinach over the middle of the egg pancake and top with the Parmesan, then jerk the pan quickly away from you then back toward you so that the omelet folds over on itself. If you don't like your omelet runny in the middle (I do), jerk the pan again so that the omelet folds over once more. Cook for a minute or two longer. Tilt the pan and roll the omelet out onto a plate.
