food, this omelette cooking hack will blow your mind (no skillet necessary)

Method

Break the eggs into a Ziploc bag, and shake or use your fingers to massage and break up the yolks and whites. If you do not have any Ziploc bags, any sturdy, sous vide bag will work, just make sure the plastic is thick enough to withstand heat and is perfectly sealed.

(P.S. don’t worry, all Ziploc bags are BPA- and dioxin-free, therefore perfectly safe to submit to cooking temperatures.)

Method

Add the mozzarella cheese, mushrooms, and chives. Season with salt and pepper. Shake the bag to mix all the ingredients. Seal the bag, trying to remove as much air from it as possible.

Method

Next, place the bag inside a pot filled with boiling water. If it is a large pot, place a maximum of 8 bags at a time in the water. Cook for 10 to 15 minutes, then gently remove the bag from the water.
