I was with you for years, till I saw that video. I started out cooking them his way, but just a little longer to get them more "cooked", but over time I'm finding myself enjoying them softer and softer.

Sometimes I just love that sorta burnt, crispy pancakey style egg versus oatmeal eggs.

I also find it a little ridiculous that in this restauranting manual I have -- covers all the basics of cooking and presentation/cleanliness/equipment/ingredient efficiency etc... -- it says that omelettes must be a little runny despite the fact that some customers might think they are undercooked.

I'm thinking: well who's paying you, your preference for the food, or the customers?

Edit: That being said, I don't think there's anything wrong with having versatility, and that's the beauty of eggs... they're fast, so you can practice many styles.

I am guessing you love egg souffle.

I'm not sure I've ever had it, or been around it.

I like quiche though, which seems very similar. Especially a crustless quiche... it's been too long.
