I’m so glad that Kenji is posting this regularly again!! Especcialy the POV vids! Please bring back the late night cooking video’s tho!!!

This is the Kenji classic "I made you food" then proceeds to eat it.

This is almost exactly how Jacques Pépin does it. It’s really the best way. When I was unemployed for a year I had this for lunch everyday and I’ve finally mastered it.

This is the one dish that I feel snobby about. I can’t have a diner omelette anymore. I know it’s a different thing, but I just love this version so much.

Lol the shrinking away Kenji at the end was great

My favourite part of making a french omelette is the scrambled eggs I end up with 😅

So happy to hear you explain your use of the fork with nonstick. It has turned into a war of word on JP’s video.

I never comment. I just have to say I loved this style of video. I love you mixing it up and experimenting. Maybe I've been under a rock, but I've never seen a cooking video like this and I enjoyed it a lot!

[namenl]

you have a very kind personality, always a joy watching your videos Kenji :)

[bullsfan]

Love watching this dude cook and talk about food

[alvinee]

Thank you for this! I’ve always struggled with getting the right temperature - the water trick is brilliant!

I first learned this from Jacques Pepin and I have been converted ever since- French omelets are way better IMO! Thanks for the video!

I just made my first-ever proper french omelette this morning following this. Thanks so much for the tutorial Kenji!

[dodaexploda]

Ever since I saw your video on salting eggs early I've been doing it religiously. Waiting 15 minutes for the eggs to interact with the salt. I think I shall make this french omlette for dinner.

I love the water idea to kind of gage the readiness of the pan. Thx!

I'm dying to know if his kids properly appreciate having such a good cook for a father. Seems like something kids might (or might not) take for granted lol

This is a technique I have been trying to master for years - as a home cook, I am not making it every day. So, it takes me a while.
Even a ugly looking version tastes so creamy & smooth! I add a bit of sour cream or creme fraiche to it!! Chives and creme fraiche make this good.

Kenji with the picture-in-picture play-by-play.

[YouzACoopa]

I like the new format and the old one too. Point of View is great for seeing what your focus is and how you move in the kitchen
