One pan, a few ingredients: six cooking lessons to watch closely

Eggs, kimchi rice, green-onion pancakes and a tortilla pizza: recipes chosen for the visible technique, not a promise that every dish takes the same time or equipment.

Watch the first time without cooking. On the second pass, note the ingredients, pan, heat and any finishing equipment before starting. The rolled omelette uses a particular technique and some Pépin recipes use a broiler, so choose the lesson that fits your kitchen rather than buying equipment for the whole list.

Try this first

Compare the classic omelette and the country-style potato omelet: similar ingredients lead to different textures and handling.
