It is easy to prepare a thick flank steak in the oven. The low-cost, flavorful steak is a great way to satisfy a sweet tooth. You'll find that this dish is as tender as any steak you can buy at a restaurant, but it's also very easy to make. First, prepare a large baking sheet with parchment paper and a high-heat frying pan. Place the steaks on the frying pan. After about a minute, flip them and let them rest for fifteen seconds.

Season the steak generously on all sides. Place it on a broiler plate, right at the heat. To achieve medium-rare, you can cut the steak against its grain and place it on a grill. Broiler pans are a faster way to cook your steak. Turn the broiler up to maximum setting. Preheat the oven. Add a pinch of rosemary to enhance the flavor.

You can use a meat tenderizer to make the steak tender. A meat tenderizer can either be bought online or at a retail store. It is important to use a food storage bag to place the steak. After placing the steak on a cuttingboard, pound it with the meat tenderizer. After it has been flattened, place it on a broiler plate so that it can reach high temperatures.

How to make a perfect omelet

Omelets are one of my favorite foods to eat at breakfast. How do you make them perfect? Many different recipes and methods have failed to work for me. I have some tips and tricks to help you make delicious, fluffy omelets every single morning.

Before we start making omelets, let's remember that eggs are temperamental. It is important that eggs are fresh from an organic market and kept cool until used. The yolks and whites will not form properly if they aren't kept cold enough. This causes your omelets to look oddly colored. It is best to use room-temperature eggs if you are going to cook them right away.

Another tip is to separate your egg before adding it into the pan. It is important not to allow any white to mix with the yolk as this could lead to the omelet becoming curdled.

The egg can burn if it is placed directly on the stovetop. Instead, heat the egg in a microwave for 10 seconds and then place it in a pan. The microwave heat will cook the egg just right without making it too hot.

Next, let’s talk about mixing the egg. You want to mix the eggs thoroughly before you add them. You need to turn the bowl of the mixer upside down. Next, shake the bowl vigorously. The egg will be thoroughly mixed in the bowl as the air is whipped.

Now comes the fun part - pouring the milk into the mixture. The first step is to pour half of the milk in the beaten eggs. Next, fold the eggs into the remaining milk. If you still see streaks of eggs, don't worry. These streaks will disappear once the omelet has been turned over.

After you have folded the eggs, heat the oil in a pan over medium heat. Once the oil has started to sizzle, turn the heat down to low. Once the oil begins to heat, add 1/4 cup butter and swirl the pan to coat it. Open the lid and sprinkle salt on the pan. An additional pinch of salt will prevent the omelet form sticking to your pan.

Cover the pan once the omelet is formed and allow it to cool completely. Use a spatula to flip the omelet or turn the pan upside-down. Cook the other side for another minute or two. Take the omelet out of the pan and immediately serve.

This recipe works best with whole milk, but skimmed milk also works.
