How to make perfect French cheese omelette!! (by the famous French Chef Kondo)

[ngcalvinutomo96]

that is a LOT of oil

[210482fmj]

it just proves alot of western chefs are wrong about saying that cooking omlettes on high powered stoves at high heat very quickly makes them over cooked and tough. Its all about technique.

[aseriousman91]

I did it using chopsticks and it came out perfectly! So that's the secret!

[RevengeisSweet12]

Chopsticks.

Like a boss.

[charlestonpowa]

Faire tout un flan pour une omelette ;D

2:08 nohara shinnosuke university?? shinchan???

[walshamite]

Sure looked brilliant at the end. I'm just a tad surprised he fried it in oil and not butter as I find butter makes for a much better flavour i.m.h.o, but hey, great techniques shown and the cream makes it kinda buttery sorta.

[datzfast]

this is how to turn eggs into rubber. i swear to god they would bounce

[traineechef]

Wow!

[GoendahGoelana]

this is an art

[osufann69]

Why am I watching so many scrambled egg and omelet videos tonight?

[YouInTheDark16]

an asian guy doing a french dish... I'm so mind fucked right now

[natOfbar]

the best chefs take less than a minute to cook the omelette

[kinmanyuen]

[missmiserybusiness]

[czeshirecat]

[OounizavipoO]

YUMMY

[GrimeDaiIy]

[Matt2779]

@GrimeDaiIy oh yeah gotta love baby chicken abortion juice.

[numbuh53]

This actually looks easy enough to make. I just need to find a pan that small....

[xXTRauMaazXx]

I didnt like the idea of putting all that oil in but it tasted gorgeous :P

[ivancamilov]

I'm eating one right now, it's awesome :). Will have to practice a bit more to get it in a single piece, though

[laughingcrows]

@Cynamon18 Huh oh, he fooled your simple little mind. Didn't he?

[ascari12]

[D1BonGo]

@thebillcolt Olive oil probably. Vegetable oil burns to fast.

[Idancechris]

[shawnio]

[H0neyB4dger]

@shawnio japanese....

[shawnio]

@H0neyB4dger yeah that's makes my post that much more relevant lol

[ewqr12]

[Senzx]

I thought it was spelt sauce not source...:S

[roughryder5]

[theHoax100]

[rizadil]

Fresh Eggs? lolzz



[mcfreid]

And this whole time I thought you stir to the right... No wonder my omelettes have been terrible.

[coulthard1984]

@mcfreid haha nice one

[edemz05]

tamago oishii

[JasperKenneth06]

k. so, i dont have anything to eat. i'll make this. thanks! :)

[ringkingpin]

a perfect omelette shouldn't have a skin on it. That's 101 my friends.

[ringkingpin]

@YapiKredi

ahhhh now I see where you picked the idea of using chopsticks to make a FRENCH omelette. I figured you pulled that idea out of your ass but I was wrong, you got it from hugging this "FRENCH" chef's nuts who isn't even French, hahahahahaha SHOEMAKERS!!

[frdrcksncn]

@ringkingpin umm..actually, using chopssticks to bind the yolks and egg whites together is ONE technique that works well. You should try it. Even Julia Childs herself have been known for doing it! And for the record, He's considered a "French Chef" probably because his forte is in French cuisine. Not because he's French (as in ethnically) lol. And were you reffering to him as a shoemaker? or the Japanese as shoemakers? Maybe, but fyi, you're probably living or using Japanese technology.

[MrsAimeeOliver]

haha tried it out. its harder than it looks!

[134679salomelau]

a true master at work

[134679salomelau]

whoaaaa...........the way he cracks and lets the content of of egg out in one hand is cooooooool!

[hotpapaish]

@YapiKredi Practice. What he's doing with the pan and his chop sticks looks easy, but it's really hard in it's subtly. The pan moves back and forth, and the chop sticks move in a circle. Knowing when to start stirring is key. Also, notice, that he cooks on very high heat and manages the temperature by raising and lowering the pan. He's a master, but he should be using clarified butter, not oil.

[ringkingpin]

@hotpapaish ahhhh now I see where you picked the idea of using chopsticks to make a FRENCH omelette. I figured you pulled that idea out of your ass but I was wrong, you got it from hugging this "FRENCH" chef's nuts who isn't even French, hahahahahaha SHOEMAKERS!!

[hotpapaish]

@ringkingpin Your parents did a fantastic job instilling confidence in you. Too bad they didn't do as well with humility. Your technique is terrible, this guy has it correct. You lean on a non-stick pan to prop up your horrible technique, he makes his in a proper pan. You are lazy and sloppy, he is clean and efficient. The fact that he serves his omelette a bit more country than city is a matter of taste; he knows exactly what's happening to those eggs second by second.

[ringkingpin]

@hotpapaish

When I was working in the Escoffier kitchen at the Ritz in Paris, I would have been fired for making an omelette like that. City vs country? What the hell are you talking about? A French Omelette isn't supposed to have any skin but you already know that, right? Now get back to your nut hugging.

[hotpapaish]

@ringkingpin You just lost. You're telling stories. The closest you've ever been to a starred kitchen is being thrown in one's dumpster by 45 year old, 120 pound French toughs. Go back to your 20 year old electric stove, awesome foil BTW, crusted in 2 years of oil and slop egg onto yourself, the stove and your coffee mug.

[Lukeriddoch]

@ringkingpin you are deluded my friend, there are two types of omelette, country and classic, you obviously did not know about country from your time in a restaurant (they only served classic) do your research before commenting.

[HOsPoduction]

@ringkingpin STFU!!!! u fking dumbass! this guy is a professional chef, he knows what he's doing.... U FKING PIECE OF SHIT

[kersika1]

This was my first choice video to watch and the one I came back to to make my omelette. It didn't turn out like Chef Kondo's in appearance but in taste it was the best omelette I have ever made. Hats off to Chef Kondo!

[ryanbg328]

I was going to do this but I don't have any chopsticks. FUCK!

[atikahjang]

it looks good!

[t3amkn0ck]

BEAST!



[SharkMinnow]

that was brilliant!

[AESamuel]

Whenever I try this the inside of the omelette still has runny egg but I don't have it on too high as I don't get the bubbles (caused by a higher heat, yes?)

Anyone have any suggestions?

[wil318466]

like a little egg with your oil. Nice.

[TommieDuhWeirdo]

Yum, third of a cup of oil....

[triunemusicgroup]

@TommieDuhWeirdo i agree thats too much oil for my taste.

[ARTeFAKD]

Best omelett i have ever seen! :-)

[Rokittyables]

did anybody notice that it said to put ketchup source on it ?

[eazye1948]

what's cc?

[mungnee]

err .. was the homemade ketchup by Chef Kondo uploaded?

[xsexwolf]

lol Hes using his ching chong sticks to whisk it.

[Maestroxxx1]

This is a lecture?!?!!@!@

[arnarne]

Does anyone know what kind of omelette-pan Mr. Kondo is using here? I guess it is not a "non-stick" but is it cast-iron or steel and where could I buy this kind of omelette-pan?

[MissingFilms]

WTF this video lacks detail

[RootSuitMan]

Oh god.

[katyameow]

I love this.

[arnarne]

Thank you 904TV for posting this! It is the most appealing, quickest and maybe the best way to make an omelette! However, it is not the easiest way... I have tried a few times now and although it is getting better, I have not mastered it at all yet. I will carry on practising till I get it perfect though. Beautifylly done!

[piratechefny]

fucking jap.... of course everything in america is served with ketchup right? i guess you would serve it with soy sauce?

nice job on the omelet though.

[KongIsBored]

@piratechefny It's called a "FRENCH OMELETTE" dumbass, fucken american

[los1975]

@KongIsBored AGREED! People have the wrong idea of what a true French Omelette is. Look at Julia Child's Omelette or Jacque Pepin omelette omelette. Then look at all other videos and you'll see a difference...

[glynbrain]

So sliced cheese can be used instead of grated cheese. That's all I wanted to know. Thanks.

[dcyli]

3 Eggs.. a little bit of milk.. 3 cheeses.. cover the entire pan with oil.. eh rotate left and stuff..

OHM NOM NOM

[itsCONTROVERSY]

WTF make me sushi chef kondo

[Chnamanjx]

@itsCONTROVERSY What is french style sushi made by a japanese french chef? Would it be rice mixed with butter, topped with beef carpaccio or snails?

[karrrido]

so graceful...

[Chnamanjx]

Where can I buy that fry pan? The slightly sloped sides, french carbonized black steal?

[piratechefny]

@Chnamanjx .... look up "black steel" and then season the shit out of them like you would a cast iron pan.... it takes time but it's worth it.

[yoruichiwt13]

japanese!!!

[nicolagrainger123]

delicious just saved myself £20 on a takeaway...and it was well worth it thank you x

[pokemonpwnz1]

lol beat till soft

[lrod1887]

Beat it up well until it gets soft- hahahhaa

[MrChrisrocks1212]

i make a better omlet than that

[shoorooz]

Look gud

[1982FMJ]

He could of used less oil maybe but igues it was only a demonstration.

[1982FMJ]

what is the trick to make sure you do not seperate the egg and allowing it to become scrambled.

[xXToneLocXx]

@1982FMJ

Basically, the constant agitation of the eggs will keep them from scrambling. You'll notice with the French method that they shake the entire pan, rather than the American way of just using a fork or spatula to keep moving the egg to the outside of the pan...

Youtube "Jacques Pepin omelette" for a great video on the differences between the two styles

[1982FMJ]

theres so many ways to make an omlette not just what somebody else does. Every way is different and depends what technique you like to cook with

[tamick21]

wow that's cool

[browncloudz]

a lecture...AN ASIAN LECTURE!!!!

Shet im scared of that. D:

[boxer35711]

it tast good

[wijgego]

milk has sugar in it which burns. that's why there was burned bits on the outside of your omelette. also, why use oil -- the french would use butter. imperfect, I'd say. sorry. check out my omelette!

[kebabs19]

look at them burnt ass eggs smell like the back of a chinese restaurant. 9 thumbs down asshole

[lscyuyu]

omurice egg : P

[britonia01]

chef dont mention about milk... and i like milk in eggs that make it more tastier

[flaminpork]

I've tried it and it's really an easy, simple and nice dish! My first try however was not that good cause i didnt reduce the heat right after pouring the egg on the hot pan. My egg got burnt a bit for not reducing the heat. Those who wish to try better be aware of this :) I used 2 eggs and 2 cheddar cheese and substituted the sauce with pasta sauce but its still great. Finally, I've added some boiled broccoli and carrots to make it a complete meal =) Thanks for posting this vid!

[RAINDROP2427]

looks really yummy

[QTPatootiee]

looks more like scrambled eggs

[Nekologic]

df.

[mecitgokhan]

Thank you, this was exactly what i was lookin for..

[sweetkomalsheffield]

thats not french omelette, they don't use milk and its 2 eggs, not three

[wwfc100]

@sweetkomalsheffield wtf do you know, there are no rules about how many eggs you use it all depends on personal taste or appetite

[easylove87]

@sweetkomalsheffield

julia child always said 2 or 3 eggs.

[Vanilla0120]

yumm

[takadi]

Btw, this is the most perfectly done omelette on youtube. Julia Child also used chopsticks in her omelette episode

[takadi]

What's sad is that Japanese people take what Europeans have and make it ten times better. Don't be jealous my honkie friend, you'll catch up with your hamburgers and hotdogs in no time

[OvoPiano]

what if I don't have chop sticks?

[mecitgokhan]

@OvoPiano use ur dick

[philly424]

this made me lol ^

[WEmip]

Perfectly done. Thanks.
