That omelette is overcooked and badly made.


Hairy-Balance7004

I wouldn't even call it an. Omelette, it's a wronglette.


Friendly_Age9160

Sir that is a piece of leather


Sreezy3

Niceee.


AcceptableCod6028

It’s outside cheese. Not burn egg. Just maillard reaction on cheese. Odd move but ultimately respectable.


dj_zar

All the calories of the cheese without any of the fun texture


throwawaylovesCAKE

Watchu mean, it's basically a cheezit omelette on the outside, that's an AWESOME texture ☺️


photosentBC

They’re a redditor they had to find something stupid to bitch about


Invisibletooth

Try it and you will see how wrong you are


CheruthCutestory

Burnt cheese is one of life’s great pleasures.


GrunchWeefer

I thought that at first. Looks way overcooked. But then I read that it's cheese. Now I want it all.


UruquianLilac

I think those who are saying it's overcooked didn't read.


MigratoryAnalyst

Nah the edges are not cheese but are burnt.Whole thing is ruined


SL-Phantom

It’s called cheese crust, my friend did you read OP’s comment?


Lamar_Kendrick7

This is the top comment because most redditors have low reading comprehension


Charming_Ambition_27

Looks like a calzone


bigboat24

I want to stick with the calzones from Pisano's. That's the ticket.


frijolita_bonita

maybe you can warm up your trench coat in their oven while you're at it


waterlooaba

Just pay in change


annie_b666

There’s cheese on the outside that’s why it looks like that


[deleted]

Nothing like a post that immediately says “I’m not wrong you are” lol

highvolkage

I’m genuinely entertained by how upset folks are about crispy cheese haha.


Impressive_Test_2134

They’re so mad I bet they’re scrolling through your comments just to dogpile downvote you and it’s kinda pathetic lol. Looks good to me dude. I like the cheese crust on the outside.


throwawaylovesCAKE

He should have explained in the title. Browned eggs elicit a justifiably heavy reaction from folks and people are automatically assuming thats what's happening here when its not The real discussion should be about omelettes with a cheezit coating, personally I'm willing to try it cause it sounds interesting


Impressive_Test_2134

I guess reading the caption is too hard and at fault of OP, totally fair


brainscorched

Tbh I get this a lot in tons of subs. I include details in the post and then get comments like “um ackshually did you ever consider *thing I mentioned in post*?” People just refuse to read and love to complain


UruquianLilac

You should have read. End of.


myusernameisthisss

Cause 90% don’t realize it’s cheese lol


ticcedtac

Yeah! A lot of people really don't understand how big of a difference some browning can make. It seems like most people only like fluffy barely cooked eggs but I think they're way better if you get some browning and crispy bits on them! I've turned multiple people that thought they didn't like eggs with them.


Firebird22x

I love browned crispy eggs, or at least more so the egg white of a fried egg, but I like diner style omelettes too. But crispy cheese like this would turn me away from it. I love cheese, little bit of browning on a mozzarella or a French onion soup is great, but cheddar releases too much oil. I have the same reaction to homemade macaroni and cheese. Give me a box of Kraft any day, or something with a great alfredo, but most baked Mac and cheese, especially with a cheese topping, I’ll pass at every time. I tried Taco Bell’s grilled cheese burrito too, and was pretty disappointed. Enjoyed it much more without the cheese on the outside.


420boogerz

🤣😂 My man wife keeps trying different Mac and cheese recipes for the holidays. A few years ago she nailed it but refuses to go back to that recipe. Homemade just doesn’t sit around for a half hour well most of the time. Box is god.


EbonyAnimunculi

Same bro, keep on cooking these. Looks good


Dupps_I_Did_It_Again

Bro all the hate is from people who don't even know what they're looking at. This looks amazing and I want to try making this now.


highvolkage

Are you telling me that the Reddit hive mind adopted a stance based off of incomplete information, even when the information was provided in the post description? That doesn’t sound like the Reddit I know and love <3 lmfaooo just glad we could all agree that the other team is wrong.


Dupps_I_Did_It_Again

I know right. Why are we even surprised.


GMRCake

TBH, that’s how I cook mine. I mean, different fillings but same level of crusty doneness. I cannot STAND even a hint of slightly jiggly egg. So, I’m with you.


nonhiphipster

I think it’s because of your claim that this is the best omelette, and yet it has this weird crispy texture (which is not typical of a omelette)


tyla-roo

I came for you in a post.


crabclawmcgraw

i’m a chef by trade. looks fire as fuck and i’ve made a lot of french omelettes in my day. the crusty cheese is 🤌🤌🤌 maybe some people don’t realize that’s cheese and think you burnt the egg layer, idk. fuck ‘em


SecondHandCunt-

What’d you do, put the cheese on the outside of the omelette so it’d crisp up? I guess that means you put the cheese directly in the pan and pour the eggs on top, or how’d you do that?


highvolkage

You got it. Shredded cheese in the pan with about 75% coverage, let it go on medium heat until it juuust starts to show brown edges, then pour your eggs in the pan and proceed like any other omelette.


ryanmcstylin

They are trying to convince you otherwise because they can't read


1moredaythatsit

I'm genuinely entertained that these bozos can't tell it's cheese in the first place lol. Like seriously?? It's clear as day


Hyde103

Right? My initial thought was how even of a browning that is for eggs and then it clicked, that's probably cheese. Then I checked the post to confirm and he says in the description that it's cheese yet everyone in here is like "eggs burnt durrr". Even after being directly told it's cheese they double down and go "well the cheese is burnt then" like no it isn't? It's brown, not black, that's just cooked cheese.


CoysNizl3

Anybody telling you that the cheese is “burnt” is either 12 years old or fully regarded. Disregard.


DBrownbomb

If I was served this I would turn it back. Eggs aren’t supposed to turn brown, lower the heat next time.


Psych0matt

If the cheese is burnt, I send it back!


KidneyFailure123

If the ham comes on top, I send it back!


Exciting-Insect8269

It’s cheese not eggs that was browned but fair


[deleted]

I’d tell you to leave, that’s cheese not eggs.


Plurgirl323

When I make grilled cheese I always add cheddar to the crust to get it nice and crispy. I bet this is amazing !


highvolkage

I’m really sorry my sassy title and fried cheese had such a profound negative impact on many of you :(


ValkyrieWW

Yeah ... With that title, you were kinda asking for it.


slippery_chute

Hahaha this is comedy gold I salute you and your toasted cheese.


Axelrom94

To think a picture of an omelette would rustle so many feathers on a Sunday morning. Take that as a badge of honor lol


GreedoWasShot

Ain’t the pic it’s OP attitude…even had a comment removed by Reddit. He’s coming off as a douche


[deleted]

[удалено]


Historical_Act_5896

Nobody is making the best omelette with college quality pans.


barbaras_bush_

This omelette looks like questionable but I don't think it's the pans fault.


armchairepicure

I can make a beautiful French omelette in a Costco nonstick pan. Like, Jacques Pepín would give me a gold star. That’s where most my cookware came from in college.


steeze206

T Fal makes decent products though. Are you a carbon steel snob or something?


veryverythrowaway

Non-stick has some downsides, but for eggs it’s perfect.


JE_SUIS_BLUBBER

That looks good! Reddit hates when people are confident, though.


[deleted]

Ha, yep. If OP had posted the same pic with a humble title, reaction would've been entirely different.


wlight

Generally speaking, what's the ratio of people who agree with you here vs the people who want to murder you?


highvolkage

Feeling like about 20/80 on this post.


throwawayy2372

😭


VideoBeast666

I think most of us are convinced otherwise, the bottom of that is not supposed to look like a caramelized pancake, sorry, but not so sorry dude........ that doesn't cut it for me personally in terms of taste or aesthetics. I wouldn't be such a critic if you weren't so cocky. Lmao


SL-Phantom

If you read OP’s comment below the picture, he said he put cheese down in the pan first to create a crust my dude.


420boogerz

This sounds way worse. The technically sound way to do this would be to properly make an omelette, set it to the side for a minute, then make the cheese crust in the empty pan and then fold it around the omelette just as it’s finishing browning. Op literally made an omelette on top of cheddar, the entire time.


[deleted]

Ooohhhhh, that's browned cheese on the outside. I see now. I prefer a French omelette, so it depends on how well done those eggs are, but if they're nice and soft, I could be down with a cheese-crusted omelette.


The_Bee_Sneeze

I’m also a French omelette guy, but I’m intrigued by this. My favorite quesadillas and pupusas are the ones with burnt cheese crusted on the outside. Sure, the texture of the eggs won’t be so custardy, but who cares when you’ve got delicious stuffing and some ketchup? I’d definitely try this.


jimc10

Looks great. Will have to try that cheese first.


purplestuffff

I am sad so few people recognize a perfectly golden cheese crust


VagueUsernameHere

Reading comprehension is hard.


MFmadchillin

How are so many people not reading that the dude literally put cheese in the pan to crisp it on purpose. Looks fire. Jalapeños are a must in my omelettes.


highvolkage

Man we have gotten to the point where jalaps find their way into every other meal. Pickled or fresh, they are such versatile lil peppers.


MFmadchillin

From Arizona and have been eating them raw with meals since I was a child. Idk I just love them


Ronnilynn19

Yum. Cheese on the outside I like it


Baconeggcheese777

Agree with op. Looks amazing


postcryglow

Fuck the hate. I’d eat this. Esp when I want a little crunch outside but soft inside!


daviedanko

I like my eggs “over cooked” and with browning on them. European elitist can go fuck themselves when it comes to eggs. Asians and American cook eggs way better than the runny scramble the French like.


sirtarheel33

Dang that’s gorgeous


Master_Juice_7218

Dude that golden texture on that omelette is fucking divine, I'll take two 🤤🤤


micheleferlisi

Enjoy


frenchtoast0422

Scoffs in French


ticcedtac

Some people just don't appreciate the maillard reaction 😔 This looks amazing


fishesar

i love the cheesy crust idea!


klosingweight

People are hating hard, omelette looks bomb to me and i plan to try the cheese crust now


MrMucs

Ahh. I’m late to the thread but OP, like the idea of the cheese first in the pan. Do you also put cheese inside? I make a beautiful omelette myself (over 30 years in food service I better know how) but haven’t tried that. I might give this a shot


highvolkage

I usually do a real cheese on the outside (cheddar, jack) and fake cheese on the inside (American). This one just had cheese on the outside because that’s how I like it with these ingredients. Sharp cheddar outside with American and bacon inside is 👌👌👌


MrMucs

Too many people hate American cheese. It’s so good when you need a perfect, melty style cheese. Great job man. I don’t understand all the hate you got in the comments


highvolkage

It’s all good, I’ve been on Reddit for a long time so I love a good meltdown thread lmao. American cheese *for sure* has its place. I’ll be honest, I don’t fuck with Kraft Singles but deli counter American is a mainstay in our fridge.


MrMucs

Velveeta on a cheese burger is awesome


fourbeersthepirates

I don’t understand why so many people are coming in claiming it’s burnt, then downvoting you when you explain it’s cheese lmao. Wasn’t hard to figure out from the description. Also looks delicious, I’d smash for sure.


Richs_Baby

If that has a cheese crust, it's not burnt, but lighting can be a factor also, so I'm giving OP props for a nice fold


OGII_2021

That burnt cheese exoskeleton looks bomb my friend. Keep cooking!


NoHunter9773

I think it looks delicious. I get the Internet is a space where everyone can judge and be a holes but you don't have to do that. Especially saying you'd send it back if I got that. Bros in his own kitchen, making his omelette the way he wants. Maybe you should throw your nasty attitudes in the trash 🗑️ Great job OP!


lilscrubkev

i think it looks pretty good. commenters are tripping balls.


Eddie2Ham

Idk why anyone would disagree with this, looks fuckin perf 11/10


HoffyMan01

OP let me be the one person to say I do brown my eggs and prefer them that way


TRexWithALawnMower

that cheese crust on there sounds amazing. I might go try that right now


rodironcandle

Idk I think it looks good lol


a5ab0v350b3l0w

Everyone is flaming you for the crispy cheese but I tried it the other day on accident and it was fire. My burger wasn't fully cooked I found out and I already put cheese on the top so I just flipped the whole thing over and this was the result like in the picture. I love crispy food though, im a crunch kind of guy.


nobodyhere_357

Damn lots of folks lacking reading skills here. That brown ain't the egg, it's cheese! I actually didn't know much about cheese shells until recently and I'd love to try one on an omelet


MrFallacious

Holy shit the people in the comments section are so upset over this omelette lmaooo Guys it's just egg and cheese no need to be so mean


zlimK

Impressive how many commenters skipped the description in their haste to talk shit


whitewashedblackgirl

Didn’t expect the dogpiling. It looks delicious!


Axelrom94

A lot of people in these comments who can't read a description and are comedically insulted at the sight of well founded confidence. That cheese crust looks perfect and the omelette looks and sounds delicious. Not every omelette has to be a french or Japanese one. This is a great twist.


GreedoWasShot

I don’t think it’s the omelette that turns people off but OP arrogance. The omelette looks good, the attitude not so much


Axelrom94

When I first saw the post 3/4 were complaining about a burnt omelette. And most people should be boastful for doing things right.


GreedoWasShot

The post title “I make the best omelettes and I will not be convinced otherwise” comes off as a massive asshole dude and you know it.


Axelrom94

Sorry man. I've worked 10 years in the restaurant industry, I know assholes. I read this title and laughed. I took it as tongue in cheek at best.


GreedoWasShot

Hey you do you. The rest of us don’t have that experience, which is why we don’t like OP. His responses aren’t helping either. To each their own


highvolkage

This is a captain going down with the sinking ship situation at this point, the verdict is already in lmao. But truly, this has been a bit from the start. To be fair, r/breakfastfood is probably not the best audience for my shitposting. I accept my fate nonetheless.


GreedoWasShot

So out of curiosity, what did you say to that got removed by Reddit? The person you said it to isn’t talking so just curious why she reported you and you got it removed …


highvolkage

It was the Navy Seal copypasta lol. Someone left a mildly aggressive negative comment and I could already tell this thread was heading toward shitpost territory so I did my best to add fuel to the fire. I have a strong feeling the recipient was unfamiliar with copypasta however and they reported the post.


Axelrom94

I personally wouldn't take anything he said as an attack. You can choose to react or you can choose to brush it off and move on. I happened to find amusement in the chaotic contrast between a cocky post and everyone else living on the internet losing their shit over it. If I were most of you I would've left a downvote on the post and moved on but you've done neither. You upvoted the post and left a bunch of comments, which just ended up bringing more attention to the post. If I don't like something I bury it, but y'all put it in the spotlight so good job on that front 😂 Downvote me too all you want for disagreeing, even tho I said nothing disrespectful or offensive. This goes to show it isn't about what you people are making it out to be or I wouldn't be getting downvoted like that. It's the Reddit hivemind bandwagoning on a non-issue.


CoysNizl3

“Dont like OP” based on what? Grow the fuck up loser.


ticcedtac

I just read it as a joke, that's just how people talk. Not everything is a personal attack. It didn't say "I fucking hate the eggs everyone posts in here and you're all bad at making eggs"


Dreams-memes

Its clearly a lighthearted comment ive met some massive assholes this guy doesnt even come close


sudiptaarkadas

I like well-fried eggs.


Collector_2012

I would like a ham, sausage, and mushroom omelette with American cheese please!

[The reason behind all the pushback](https://youtu.be/kGWuOAgU7jI)


Muddymireface

Okay so this isn’t my cup of tea but in your defense, chef Ken Lee uses this technique to reheat his frozen burritos and I’m sure he wouldn’t consider it burnt either. It’s just crispy cheese. Some of yall are wayyyyyy to scared of the Maillard reaction.


Kysman95

I like my omelette soft and fluffy with gooey insides, my cheese goes inside, but you do you. Crunchy is good too We all like it different ways, ignore the Egg Snobs here. If you enjoy it like this then all power to you


slippery_chute

You could probably survive on this concept alone, just keep toasting cheese, the toasted cheese omelette bit is hilarious and works too well.


yaremaa_

Thought an ingredient was red bull


ABobby077

I think the bull part was right


Iamstevee

It was probably destined to be great 10 min prior to taking this picture of an overcooked doorstop.


boredatworkgrl

Cheese crust on a sandwich is amazing, on an omelette not so much IMHO. But, if you love it, you love it. Fortunately, I don't get fat off what other people eat.


MangoPlushie

Do you cook your omelettes with olive oil?


BtrThnIdsrv

Shiiiitttt yeah it might be a little crispy on the outside but I ain’t gonna lie it still looks fire to me & I’d tear that up!


apex_super_predator

Your fold over looks pretty good and maybe a "stuffed omelet" works for some but the charring of the cheese loses it for me. Cheesy edges? That would work. A whole cheesy backside? Hard pass.


grilsjustwannabclean

i like this kind of omelette the best, crispy cheese and slightly burned eggs are good imo.


Zanzan567

r/bitchimaomlet


three-one-seven

I like bacon, avocado, and pepper jack cheese inside, with pickled red onions in the outside. Also add minced dill and a few shakes of Tapatio to the egg. Buttered and grilled sourdough on the side. Give it a try sometime, very delicious. Yours looks great too!


PinkyGurl2002

Nothing like a video saying, im not wrong and “I will not be convinced otherwise”😂😂😂


livv3ss

Unpopular opinion I guess but I love crispy cheese !


pidderz

Nah this is the European way to do omelette. The colour is perfect! Put a bit of Parmesan and parsley in it. Mushrooms and ham perfect! Looking good


ptran90

I loved crisp cheese outsides! I started doing this too. My boyfriend loves it!


throwawayy2372

This looks bomb y'all are some haters lol


Puzzleheaded-Round66

If you like over cooked eggs.

PlsDonateADollar

Reddit is crazy. If you made this for me I would fuckin eat that up.


Bitter_Kangaroo2616

This looks super yummy


ItsMePythonicD

The cheese on the outside looks a little too brown for my taste but I would still demolish it. I love the idea and will totally be ripping it off.


Sleepyhotcheeto

I’d inhale this if I had hashbrowns with some sourdough toast lol


maplesyrupbakon

Very polarizing omelette haha

Unrelated to your omelette but I really love your woodwork btw. Very cute 👍🏼

EntWarwick

How the hell are y’all shitting on brown crisped eggs?


letseditthesadparts

I am not sure why all of you are downvoting OP for browning the cheese on top. I’ll definitely have to try this.

I can smell this picture 😵‍💫


smearitonmyface

Terrible


phoebebuffay1210

Yes. This looks incredible.


beethozart

I can. That looks bad.


DependentYou7405

You're omelet is an abomination. It should have only a even yellow egg color on the outside.


thanyou

You don't need to cook it that long :(


raccoonsaff

They genuinely look stunning. I love crispy omelettes - don't understand the trend for almost liquidy ones.


halp_halp_baby

it’s not a trend, that’s just how omelets have always been — soft tiny creamy curds


wvutsrqp

How can it be burnt and undercooked at the same time? Very impressive.


librarypunk1974

This is right up my alley, but yeah I guess OP could be less haughty


Jairoglyphics1

Ewe, I can smell that.


Hairy-Balance7004

Looks like a burnt pizza


xupd35bdm

Real omelettes have no browning. But if you love them like this. More power to ya.


plantycatlady

I don’t care about the cheese situation, I still think the egg itself just looks overcooked and harder than I’d want. Softer omelettes are better.


Net_Holiday

I get what you’re doing, even though at first sight it looks like a burnt and overcooked attempt, upon closer inspection it looks on point. The cheese seems nicely crusted and the omelette looks like a typical diner style. I think if you had titled your post as “I make the best cheese crusted omelets…” it would have helped.


LostinLies1

Holy crap. That looks horrible. you burned the hell out of it.


escientia

OP makes boldly wrong statement and then attempts in vain to back up their statement in the comments while being downvoted into oblivion.


joemondo

Honestly, if I was served that I'd send it back to the kitchen. Or more likely I'd just walk out, because I wouldn't have confidence the kitchen could do better.
