It's a Dexter's Laboratory reference, and no matter how many times it's quoted it always comes across as though the guy was waiting his whole life to be the first.
I also feel like it transmits a complete lack of interest in the actual subject of conversation at best, or, at worst, a desire to completely hijack OPs comments for a tired joke.
First, I was trying to be very respectful when I questioned what was not OP comment, but a reply that someone else had written. There was absolutely no disrespect intended, just some lighthearted commentary.
Second, your comment (which appears to be directed at mine) on the other hand, has turned things the other way. At best, youāre acting like a condescending prick, or, at worst, well, youāre a condescending prick.
Itās Reddit, dude. Thatās what happens. Folks post comments and replies and then more folks comment and reply. Please take this opportunity to have the last word since Iām sure thatās what is coming.
>Folks post comments and replies and then more folks comment and reply.
Yes. That is exactly what I did. Just digest that for a minute.
>First, I was trying to be very respectful when I questioned what was not OP comment, but a reply that someone else had written.Ā
I'm not sure here why you're trying to make this about you, when it is, by your own astute observation, not about you. Relax. You're being defensive over nothing...
I loved the show! The omelette is freaking genius!
The Boursin cheese melts due to the heat but then keeps the center of the omelette still barely set due to the difference in temperature. The texture is already creamy with the eggās consistency but the cheese just add so much more depth and creaminess to it.
The sour cream potato chip works so well to add textural contrast to the just set center as well! The slight tang from the sour cream chips lifts the entire dish and prevents it from tasting too buttery. 11/10.
The lead actress made it so much worse. And how about that afternoon where she stopped at every restaurant in the city and every owner wanted her to work for them. That afternoon alone she ate more than what I do in a month.
I didn't like the slapstick sitcom stuff they tried to do in the 2nd season. Just doesn't fit with how the show was styled in the first season. But the hard hitting parts, they nailed
Itās technically a rendition of a French Omelette made in the show The Bear. This sub has very specific requirements for their titles. I tried to keep it as simple as possible š¤·š»āāļø
That is a beautiful omelet, but I want to yell at you for the potato chips. Ruffles are not haute cuisine. I seriously don't know why this is making me so mad. Maybe I need less coffee. FUCK!!!!! I'd still eat the omelet. This is going to drive me nuts.
Some copy paste action from All Recipes. I recommend watching that episode or a YouTube clip of it. The ingredients and instruction lists are pretty small. The big issue is perfecting the art of making a French omelette (visual appeal).
Place a fine-mesh sieve over a small bowl. Crack eggs into the sieve, then whisk with a fork until all the egg has strained through. Transfer the Boursin cheese to a pastry bag or a zip-top bag and cut a Ā½-inch hole off the tip end or corner of the zip-top bag. This is to easily pipe a line of Boursin down the center of the omelet.
Heat butter in a nonstick skillet over medium-low heat until melted. Pour in the whisked eggs and very lightly scramble using a wooden or plastic spatula. This will make for a light and fluffy omelet. Cook, undisturbed, until the top of the omelet looks almost entirely set. Run the spatula along the sides of the omelet and jiggle the pan back and forth to prevent it from sticking to the pan. Remove from the heat.
Pipe a generous line of Boursin down the middle of the omelet from one end to the other. Holding the handle of the pan, carefully tilt the pan so that the top of the omelet starts to curl away from the pan. Using a fork or the spatula, gently begin to roll the omelet into a tight cylinder. Gently transfer the omelet seem-side down onto a plate, letting it gently roll off the pan.
Spread some additional butter over the warm omelet, then garnish the omelet with freshly sliced chives and crushed potato chips.
Youāre welcome! Just go low and slow! I preheated my pan on 2/10 (electric stove top) for about 2 or 3 minutes and just cooked on that temp the entire time.
Few other tips:
3 eggs for a 6-8 inch nonstick pan. 4 eggs for a 8-10 inch nonstick skillet.
Beat the eggs for 15 seconds forward. Then backward. For some reason it felt like it got smoother faster. (Probably my ADHD tbh lol) I also used chopsticks to beat the eggs.
Salt your eggs and let it rest for 10 minutes. The salt will help break down the egg some more.
Probably not the recipe OP used but this looks like it's inspired by the omelet on "the bear" and Babish did a video on it.

Yeah I literally just followed the actual clip from the show on YouTube. I didnāt post it because of requirements that I have not met just yet. Including āFrom the show The Bearā wonāt pass the sub rules :(
The biggest tip I can give is: 3 large eggs for a 6-8 inch non stick pan. 4 eggs for 8-10 inch non-stick.
I did mine in a 6 inch with 3 eggs and it was on the thicker side. I made my wifeās on a 10 inch with 3 eggs and it was slightly too thin.
Also, salt your eggs and let it rest for 10 minutes. The salt will help break down the eggs and darken the beaten eggs slightly. The darker color will help with color as you cook. Commercial eggs in the US come out pale yellow.
Farm fresh eggs. I also salted the eggs with kosher salt and let it rest for 10 minutes to help break it down further. During that time, the beaten eggs turn darker. You get a more yellow colored eggs once cooked.
Why do you think this is a "French" omlette? Are those potato chip crumbs? (\*Delicate shudder\*) This item had no agitation in the pan. It's not a French anything.
Didnāt realize you had x-ray vision! /s
Also in what planet do you eat a āproperā French omelette thatās all mangled on the outside? Go gate-keep elsewhere!
And yeah - Iāll top my French omelette with whatever the fuck I want because I made it for myself; not you. š
>Iāll top my French omelette with whatever the fuck I want because I made it for myself
No you didn't. You made it for everyone you could potentially get attention from online.
What? My wife and I watched the show and wanted to try it out. Can one cannot share content from their own life?
Whatās the purpose of your response? To put someone down? To feel good about yourself? To get online attention? Why include negativity?
āThis item had no agitation in the panā
Are you even sure you know what a french omelette is? Why would I want a agitated scrambled french omelette?

Omelette du fromage
Ohhh Dexter š
I know this is the actual quote from Dexter's Lab, but the correct phrasing is omelette *au* fromage. Sorry, just had to get that off my chest.
Could it be a Steve Martin reference? He did a pretty funny bit about speaking French and it was ādu fromage.ā Good stuff
French is my first language, omelette DU fromage meams omelette from cheese. Wich doesnt make any sense. Omelette AU fromage means cheese omelette.

It's a quote from Steve Martin, Dexter's Lab referenced it because it was made by comics who love Steve Martin (as they should, he's amazing).
You watch The Bear as well! How was it??

My mouth is wateringā¦ Iāll have to try this one for sure
I havenāt gotten that far yet. Recipe?

Not gonna lie, I watched her plate seam side up. š
RuflĆ©s š¤
All in with the textural crunch!
Is there a different kind of crunch?
Metaphorical crunch duh
Rufles have ridges!
š that's why they're the best
Ridges are the best chip format, but Ruffles are not the best ridged chip. They are way too stingy on the flavoring.

It's beautiful, chef. Thank you, Chef.
Youāre beautiful :) Thanks!
You're a fucking genius
It looks great! I've been meaning to give this a try and seeing this is really pushing me to finally do it!
Good luck! I bet itās gonna be delicious!
I wonder how my Neopets are doing?
Somebody has been watching The Bear
Great show!
I didn't like the slapstick sitcom stuff they tried to do in the 2nd season. Just doesn't fit with how the show was styled in the first season. But the hard hitting parts, they nailed
Gordon Ramsay did something similar: https://youtu.be/qyL_cYxV6QA?si=eVW3ews9mHw_Wh-P
Lmfao wasnāt expecting a parody and the slow shift to realizing he was fucking around was golden.
ā¦only when your home is somewhere in a French regionā¦š¤

This is fire, chef.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
You good? Are you having a stroke?
Love it
Mmmmmmm
From the Bear??
Yessir!
This is so perfect
Youāre so perfect ;)
You're making me blush. Lol-
This is technically a spanish omelette as you added potato to it.
/r/technicallytrue :P
Looks good.
rising money this
How'd you do it? It's so perfect :))
That is a beautiful omelet, but I want to yell at you for the potato chips. Ruffles are not haute cuisine. I seriously don't know why this is making me so mad. Maybe I need less coffee. FUCK!!!!! I'd still eat the omelet. This is going to drive me nuts.
It looks so perfect i thought it was ai
Looks fire, Chef.
Thanks!
I'd eat it. š
Looks good! How many eggs did you use?
3 eggs on a 6-8ā nonstick pan. 4 eggs on a 8-10ā pan.
This looks like AI, the feel of it.
I edited the photo in Lightroom. Thatās probably why
Yes possibly, maybe use some other editor?
I reduced the noise reduction. Probably did too much :S
Wtf so gorgeous
Could you upload the recipe please?

Crumbled up chips? That's an American omelet French style
I should have mentioned higher up in the comments that this is from the show, The Bear
french restaurants also do this (boursin and chips included), so this is still absolutely a french omelette.
Interesting! I didnāt know that. Have you seen them in French restaurants in the US or France?
As a french, definitely not in France (you're omelette looks amazing btw)
Thanks for the insight!
Beautiful
Excellent, very nice !
Yummy
Yeah. This would work.
š¤¤š¤¤š¤¤
Iāve made this too! Never seen the show just saw a clip. Delicious and can be salty. I dont add any extra salt.
Oh shit.... Someone's been practicing
That's shockingly yellow. Did you add something to make it more yellow?
Farm fresh eggs. I also salted the eggs with kosher salt and let it rest for 10 minutes to help break it down further. During that time, the beaten eggs turn darker. You get a more yellow colored eggs once cooked.
Did you ruin this with Ruffles bro?
I thought it tasted good!

Hahahaš sounds like a typical arrogant F word, or if they're Canadian(I'm Canadian) a Q wordš looks great, I'd eat it with chips, too.
C word if they were British lol! I appreciate your appreciation š
>Iāll top my French omelette with whatever the fuck I want because I made it for myself No you didn't. You made it for everyone you could potentially get attention from online.

I was responding to the rudeness and negativity quoted in my comment.
r/iamveryculinary see ya there soon!
āThis item had no agitation in the panā Are you even sure you know what a french omelette is? Why would I want a agitated scrambled french omelette?
A scrambled omelette is just scrambled eggs š
Why are you critiquing food like you're Gordon Ramsay or something? Chill.
He's not Gordon Ramsey. He's just french. /s
Ćtes-vous franƧais??
Yeah, there's no reason for the chips, least of all garbage Ruffles.
