Becky, if you're making an omelette in the frying pan, after about 2 minutes, gently lift the right edge of the omelette to let the uncooked egg run to the underside of the omelette.

Then after a few more minutes, if the omelette is big in size and you don't want to fold it, use a wooden spoon in your left hand with the edge of the spoon touching the bottom of the pan. With the spatula in your right hand, directly across from the wooden spoon, lift the omelette so that it is centred on the spatula. Then flip it over using the wooden spoon to balance the omelette.

Use this same procedure for flipping pancakes. You can tell when pancakes are ready to flip when you hear bubbles coming from the outer edges, and when you gently insert the spatula, you will feel that the underside of the pancake is crisp and cooked. In the case of pancakes, check for flipping after 3 to 5 minutes.

Subject: [CnD] making pancakes


Hi there, hope everyone is having a nice weekend and enjoying the start of the fall season. Well I am a stay at home mom and I really enjoy cooking and baking, but once in awhile I face a few challenges. One of them is making omelettes. I know a few people have recently sent emails on how to do it. does the omelette maker work?
Where can I purchase it and how do you use it?
If you use the frying pan, how do you know when to flip it over.
Another question I have is what is the easiest way to make pancakes?
I'm pretty good about making quesadillas and grilled cheese sandwiches, but I can never seem to know exactly when to flip over a pancake.
do any of you listeners have this problem?
take care and have a nice day.
