Egg Sheets
- 2 eggs
- 1/2 to 1 teaspoon canola or other neutral oil
- In a small bowl, beat the eggs until blended.
- For each egg sheet, heat 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon oil in an 8- or 10-inch nonstick skillet over medium-low heat until hot.
- To test, drop in a tiny bit of egg; it should sizzle on contact.
- Pour about half of the beaten egg into the pan and swirl to form a thin film in the bottom.
- Swiftly return any excess egg to the bowl.
- If the egg doesnt swirl and adhere to the skillet, the pan isnt hot enough.
- If the egg sticks in a thick film and immediately starts to brown, your skillet is too hot.
- Wait for the pan to heat up or lower the heat.
- You want the egg to adhere quickly yet cook gently.
- When the edge of the sheet starts to pull away from the skillet, after about 1 minute, use your index fingers and thumbs to pull up the egg sheet and flip it over.
- (It is not that hot.)
- Cook for another 15 seconds to dry the second side.
- Lift and transfer the egg sheet to a plate to cool.
- Repeat with the remaining egg, stacking the sheets.
- The total number of egg sheets you make depends on the skillet size and how thin they are.
- When the sheets are finished, cut them into whatever size you need.
- You can save time by preparing the egg sheets several hours in advance and keeping them at room temperature covered with plastic wrap.
