NEVER Cook Omelettes the Old Way — Try These 25 Chinese Tricks

That isn't your fault. Nobody showed you. In this video I walk through 25 things I learned standing next to Chef Shen Wei on a hot line, from straining the eggs to beating them with chopsticks in one direction. I'll show you the one teaspoon of cornstarch with one tablespoon of cold water that keeps an egg soft even when it's cold, the steamed egg ratio of one part egg to one and a half parts warm water, and why three eggs at a time beats six. Number two is the tornado omelette standing in my wok the whole video. Ten seconds, a matte edge, three turns, flame off, lift. It took me most of a year to get one standing. There's also egg drop soup with long silky ribbons, oyster omelette with sweet potato starch, egg dumplings folded in a ladle, and paper-thin egg skins cut into gold threads. Number one isn't a trick at all. It's cooking the same egg every day until your hands know it before your head does. If you've been fighting your eggs at breakfast and want to understand why a restaurant egg tastes different, this one's for you.
