Directions
-
In a large mixing bowl, beat the eggs, beer, and Tabasco sauce with a whisk just until blended; do not whip until frothy.
-
Place an 8-1/2 inch omelette pan over medium heat and melt 1 tablespoon of the butter.
-
Test the pan heat by dropping a drop of water into it; it should spatter immediately.
-
Pour one-third of the egg mixture into the hot pan.
-
Hold the pan handle with one hand, palm down, and move the pan in a back-and-forth motion while stirring the eggs with a fork in a circular motion about seven times.
-
Sprinkle one tablespoon of grated Parmesan cheese over the cooking omelette.
-
Place your hand on the handle with palm upward, tip the pan, and roll the omelette out onto a plate.
-
Repeat the cooking process with the remaining egg mixture and butter to make two more omelettes.
-
Serve immediately with additional Tabasco sauce if desired.

Note
Rudy Stanish, known as "the Omelette King," originally used this technique for charity functions, adding beer for zip and Tabasco for heat.
Ensure the pan is hot enough before adding the eggs; a drop of water should spatter instantly.
Use a light hand when whisking the eggs; over-beating can make the omelettes tough rather than tender.
