Spicy Yuba Omelet Recipes

SPICY YUBA 'OMELET'

Steps:

• In a large, shallow baking dish or rimmed plate, combine the soy sauce, mirin, sugar and 1/4 cup water. Mix well and set aside.
• Spread one sheet of yuba on a work surface and draw a squiggle of chili paste horizontally across the middle. Fold the bottom third up over the middle third, then fold the top third down, as if folding a letter. Press the top down firmly. Set aside and repeat with another sheet.
• Spread out the last sheet, add chili paste and place the two folded sheets of yuba in the center, one on top of the other. Fold the bottom of the last sheet over the middle and the top over that to enclose the first two sheets. Press the package firmly, then place in the baking dish with the soy-sauce mixture. Allow to sit for 5 minutes, then turn and repeat.
• Remove the yuba and drain the liquid, pressing gently to expel any excess. Place between two paper towels and press out any remaining moisture.
• Set a large cast-iron skillet or other wide, heavy pan over medium heat and add the vegetable oil. When the oil is hot, add the yuba (if it is too large, cut in half and cook in two pieces). Cook for about 1 minute, pressing gently with a spatula to keep the yuba in contact with the pan. Flip and cook for 1 minute, then repeat until both sides are browned and crisp. Transfer to paper towels and cut into pieces. Place on a serving plate and, if desired, dot with additional chili paste.

SPICY CAJUN OMELET

Steps:

• Heat 1/3 tbls. of the oil in a medium saute pan; add the mushrooms and 1/8 teaspoons salt. Sear the mushrooms over high heat until golden, then add a few splashes of wine to the pan and cook for 1-2 minutes, until the pan is nearly dry. Move the mushrooms to a bowl and set aside.
• Heat the remaining 1/2 tbls. oil in the pan and add the onion; saute over medium heat until it begins to release its juices, 3-4 minutes, then add the celery, peppers, 1/4 teaspoons salt, 1/8 teaspoons cayenne, and the garlic. Saute for about 15 minutes, until the vegetables are tender. Combine the vegetables, mushrooms, basil, and thyme; add the salt and cayenne to taste.
• Season the eggs with 1/4 teaspoons salt and a few pinches of pepper; add the water and whisk. Melt the butter in an omelet pan if you have one, if not, use a nonstick skillet. When the butter is hot, add half the egg mixture. With a spatula, move the eggs toward the center of the pan as they begin to set on the edges. Tilt the pan so that the entire surface is covered again with wet eggs. As the eggs begin to set, place half the vegetable mixture in the center, then sprinkle with half the cheese. Gently fold the omelet over and turn it out onto a plate. Repeat with the second omelet. Enjoy!

SPICY OMELETTE

Steps:

• Mix eggs, milk, salt and pepper and tabasco together and whisk into a froth. Go overboard if you want, the fluffier the eggs are the better they seem to taste (IMNSHO).
• Once eggs are in frying pan and cooking for a minute, add sausage.
• Right before folding eggs into omelette, add cheese so it doesnt get too melted. Use whatever kind of cheese you like. I usually use sharp cheddar, but you can use a mexican blend or I sometimes use Monterey Jack.
• Add two pieces of toast and a nice cup of chickory coffee and you've got a pretty good breakfast!
