Why does my pan look so bad after cooking an omelette? I seem to ruin my eggs every time, despite following all the advice I can find online.

Here’s a link to the pan in question: https://imgur.com/a/zP1VpGJ

    It sounds like you’re having a tough time with your omelette—don’t worry, you’re not alone! A few reasons your pan might look like it does could be the type of pan you’re using, how you’re cooking, or even the heat level. Here are some tips that might help:

    1. Pan Type: If you’re using non-stick, make sure it’s in good condition. Scratched or worn-out non-stick coatings can lead to sticking and make cleanup a nightmare. Cast iron pans can also work really well once they’re properly seasoned.

    2. Heat Management: Cooking your omelette over too high a heat can cause sticking and burning. Try using medium-low heat and give the pan a moment to warm up before adding oil or butter.

    3. Oil or Butter: Make sure to use enough oil or butter to properly coat the pan. This will help prevent sticking and create a nice exterior on your omelette.

    4. Cooking Technique: Stirring your eggs slightly before adding them to the pan can help ensure even cooking. When the eggs are in the pan, allow them to sit for a moment to set before you start unwinding the edges with a spatula.

    5. Cleaning: If the pan is used and not cleaned properly after each use, residue can build up. Try soaking it or using a gentle scrubber for tough spots.

    Don’t get discouraged! Cooking takes practice, and you’ll get the hang of it with time. Good luck with your omelette adventures!
