OVEN SOUR CREAM OMELET
Prepared with flavorful ham and sour cream, this egg mixture bakes up to a fluffy finish. "The recipe was handed down to me from my grandmother, who got it from my great-grandmother," shares Jennifer Holub of Clarendon Hills, Illinois. TIP: "After baking, slide the omelet onto a warm plate and serve it plain or with applesauce," Jennifer recommends.

OMELET
This recipe is for a basic French omelet with three eggs: enough for a hearty breakfast or brunch, or a light supper for one. The key to mastering this recipe is controlling the heat so the eggs do not brown, and whisking the eggs in the skillet so they set on the exterior but remain fluffy inside. A good nonstick or well-seasoned carbon-steel skillet is central to cooking the ideal omelet, which should be tender and slightly runny. Once you've got the technique down, you can play around with your seasonings, adding minced herbs, grated cheese, diced ham or sautéed vegetables. This recipe is part of The New Essentials of French Cooking, a guide to definitive dishes every modern cook should master. Buy the book.

Steps:
- Crack eggs into a medium bowl. Add 1 tablespoon water, and salt and pepper. Whisk with a fork until egg whites are incorporated into yolks. Mix in herbs, if using.
- Place a 8- to 9-inch skillet (preferably nonstick or seasoned carbon steel) over high heat. Melt butter until bubbling subsides.
- Pour in egg mixture and reduce heat to medium. With the back of a fork or a heatproof rubber spatula, whisk eggs around skillet until the bottom begins to set. This takes only a few seconds. Add any fillings, if using.
- Tilt skillet and either bang or flip egg over itself. Use fork or spatula if necessary to complete folding in half or thirds. Angle the skillet and a serving plate together, and flip omelet onto plate.

Steps:
- Add cream and salt to eggs and beat with a fork 30 seconds.
- Heat butter in medium to large sized skillet until it sizzles.
- Pour in eggs, stir once or twice with fork.
- Lift edges as eggs begin to cook and let liquid part run underneath, shaking pan back and forth to keep omelet moving free.
- When cooked but still soft on top, put 1/8 cup sour cream and 1/4 cup berries along the left side of the pan.
- (Im telling this as a right hander, if you are left handed I guess you would do the opposite.).
- Slide/pour omelet onto serving plate off the left side of the pan.
- As carefully place the portion of the omelet with the berries on it on the plate, fold the right side of the omelet over the top of the berry side, (you should not need any utensil to do this with as the side of the pan works great to help flip).
- Pour remaining sour cream and berries on top.
- Sprinkle lightly with powdered sugar.
- Place under hot broiler for about 10-20 seconds.
- Serve immediately.

Steps:
- In a bowl beat the eggs well with 1/3 cup water and the salt.
- Heat a 6- to 7-inch non-stick skillet over moderate heat until it is hot and brush it lightly with the oil. Half fill a 1/4-cup measure with the egg mixture, pour the mixture into the skillet, and tilt and rotate the skillet to coat the bottom.
- Cook the egg sheet for 10 seconds, or until it is just set, beginning with the side closest to the handle and tilting the skillet away from you, roll it up using a rubber spatula, and keep the roll in the skillet at the side opposite the handle.
- Brush the skillet with more oil if necessary, half fill the 1/4-cup measure with the egg mixture, and pour in the mixture. Tilt the skillet so that the mixture coats the bottom and flows under the egg roll, cook the egg sheet for 10 seconds, or until it is just set, and roll the egg roll back over the egg sheet, forming a thicker egg roll.
- Half fill the 1/4-cup measure with the egg mixture and pour the mixture into the skillet. Tilt the skillet so that the mixture coats the bottom and flows under the egg roll, cook the egg sheet for 10 seconds, or until it is just set, and roll the egg roll back over the egg sheet in the same manner.
- Turn the egg roll out onto a sheet of wax paper and let it cool. Make egg rolls with the remaining egg mixture in the same manner. There should be at least 4 rolls. (The egg rolls may be made up to 1 day ahead and kept covered and chilled. Let the rolls come to room temperature before assembling the hors d'oeuvres.)
- With a sharp knife trim the ends of the rolls diagonally and cut the rolls diagonally into 3/4-inch pieces. Turn the rolls cut side up and top each roll with a dollop of the sour cream and a small spoonful of the caviar. Arrange the hors d'oeuvres decoratively on a platter.
CAVIAR SOUR CREAM DIP WITH POTATO CHIPS
This simple snack is a slightly fancier version of the time-honored practice of topping potato chips with sour cream and caviar. Here, the sour cream gets zipped up with scallions, chives and white pepper and the caviar - preferably bright orange beads of salmon roe - glow like jewels on top. One of the easiest hors d'oeuvres to put together, it's also one of the most festive.
