OMELET AU NATURAL
Break eight or ten eggs into a basin; add a little salt and pepper, with a tablespoonful of water; beat the whole well with a spoon or whisk. In the meantime put some fresh butter into an omelet pan, and when it is nearly hot, put in an omelet; while it is frying, with a skimmer spoon raise the edge from the pan that it may be properly done. When the eggs are set and one side is a fine brown, double it half over and serve hot. These omelets should be put quite thin in the pan; the butter required for each will be about the size of a small egg.
