Cooking with a cast iron skillet is a great way to enjoy many of the benefits. You don't have to use an oven or stovetop to cook a delicious steak. You can even buy special tools to make it even easier. Cooking with cast iron skillets is easy if you keep your food well-seasoned. To prevent charring, don't over-sear steaks. A digital instant thermometer is also a great tool. This will help you ensure your steaks are cooked to the correct internal temperature.

Season your steak with olive oil. Place your steak in the skillet. Make sure to press down slightly. The heat should then be raised to medium. The oil should appear shiny but not smoky. When the skillet has reached a sufficient temperature, reduce the heat to medium. Season the steak while your cast iron skillet is heating. This will prevent it sticking and allow it cook evenly.

After seasoning your steak, heat it up in a pan. Add a generous amount butter to the pan and heat it up. Use a large spoon or spatula to coat the steak in butter. Then, transfer the steak to a plate and allow it to rest for at least 10 minutes. You can also serve it as is, or eat it as is. You should season the meat thoroughly before cooking.


Once the steak is cooked, you should remove it from the pan. After the steak is cooked through, you can sprinkle it with lemon juice and rosemary. This will give the steak a delicious and juicy flavor. To make your steak even tastier, you can add some red wine to the pan. Be sure to cover the skillet with a lid before you begin cooking. It will cook evenly every time and be tender.

How to make a perfect eggroll

Omelets are one of my favorite foods to eat at breakfast. How can you make them perfectly? I've tried many recipes and different methods but none have worked. I have some tips and tricks to help you make delicious, fluffy omelets every single morning.

When making omelets, it is important to be aware that eggs can be temperamental. It is important that eggs are fresh from an organic market and kept cool until used. You must keep them cool enough to allow the whites to form properly and the yolks to become too runny if they're not kept at the right temperature. Your omelets will look strangely colored if this happens. It is best to use room-temperature eggs if you are going to cook them right away.

You can also separate the egg before you add it to the pan. You don't want any white to get mixed up with the yolk because this could cause the omelet to curdle.

You could end up burning the bottom half of the egg if the egg is added directly to the heat source. Instead, place the egg in the microwave for 10 second before you put it in the skillet. The heat from the microwave cooks the egg just enough without overcooking it.

Next, let’s talk about mixing the egg. You want to mix the eggs thoroughly before you add them. You can do this by turning the bowl of your 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: adding the milk to your mixture. Mix half of the milk with the eggs. Then fold the eggs in half into the remaining milk. You don't need to worry if streaks remain. They will disappear once you flip your omelet.

After folding the eggs fold the pan onto medium heat. When the oil starts to hot, wait for the pan to cook. 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.

Once the omelet has formed, cover the pan again and wait for the top side to set completely. Flip the omelet by using a spatula. Cook the opposite side for another minute. Serve the omelet immediately by removing it from the pan.

This recipe works best using whole milk. Skimmed milk is also possible.
