c. Therefore, I must come up with a solution because: Yes, I am not lying...I DO actually eat 1.5 five-egg omelets per day (average);.

 

  

Does the .5 go in the bin or do you put it back in the freezer ?

e. I want to be able to cook 50 omelets in the shortest amount of time, and then quickly freeze for up to 60 days.

 

 

  

Why 60 days when you are only making enough for 33 days ?

d. What I need is some electrical appliance which can make two omelets simultaneously.  

 

  

Why stop at 2 ?

I just add the 0.5 omelet to a bowl in the refrigerator. 

Then, the next morning, or evening, I can make omelet-and-tuna rice porridge. 

In China, we call this 'zhou'. 

 

I learned many of these omelet techniques during lockdown 

And I now call this my comfort food. 

 

You should try it, before you knock it.

No need. 

It's good! 

I don't have access to great BKK Thai food. 

But the food I prepare is healthy, never a stomach upset, and it's QUITE tasty. 

I love jasmine rice. 

Omelets go GREAT with Thai rice. 

 

Please note... This OP is actually serious to me, and I wasn't joking when I uploaded it.

Bt.35 per box seems a bit steep, too.

35b for 5 eggs, How much are eggs, garlic, box, gas, oil, electric, rent, water. etc.

Here are answers to questions asked:

 

a. Why do I refuse to use a wok to prepare omelets?

 

I have used a wok in China and in Taiwan.

I cook at very high heat using peanut oil, or soybean oil with high smoke points.

The smell, smoke, grease goes EVERYWHERE.

 

I have no exhaust fan sufficient to vent the smoke (in Thailand) in my kitchen.

 

If I were to buy a bottle of gas, and a wok, and try to cook outdoors on the terrace, then I would be attached by mosquitoes, almost incessantly, and the sweat would drip from my brow into the eggs. (This is exactly what happened last time I tried to cook outdoors in Naples, FL. In Naples, our kitchen was also not equipped with a high capacity kitchen exhaust fan. Not Good!

 

b. Why must I cook 50 omelets all at once?

 

This is just the way I cook.

I like to prepare as much as I can in the shortest time possible, to be frozen and eaten during the following 30 to 45 days.

 

I do the same thing with chicken breasts. I use a convection oven to cook 6 oven trays of chicken breasts.

Up to 9 large chicken breasts will fit on my Electrolux convection oven tray (I purchased the largest model available from PowerBuy.)

 

So, normally, after about 6 hours of cooking, I end up with about 50 well-roasted chicken breasts.

These, I freeze, and then eat during the next 45 days, and sometimes even two months.

This is another reason why I have two refrigerators.

 

c. Does the taste/texture of food I freeze deteriorate?

 

No.

The taste improves.

But, concerning texture, you gotta be meticulous about temp and time when reheating.

 

All the above goes GREAT with Thai jasmine rice.

I never get gastrointestinal discomfort, like some of my friends who eat at a different restaurant each week, day, or whatever.

The stomach discomfort is not worth the enjoyment of Thai food eaten at questionable beaneries.

 

So, I am happy with my diet.

I just need to know the fastest way to make 50 omelets, without using a wok, and using some electrical appliance.

A two-omelet or three-omelet machine might be OK for me.

And, I would NOT want a machine that did not have enough wattage to cook very quickly.

i not know i not eat eggs

I was unaware of the OP's suggestion of freezing eggs ?? Ok well why not..but feels funny to freez eggies ..

Even though I have my refrigerator compartment set at one degree above zero celcius, I believe it would be ill-advised of me to store cooked omelets at this temp for more than 24 hours.,due to growth of bacteria, food toxins, etc. 

 

You can easily google this question and find relevant graphs plotting bacteria growth, versus time and temperature. 

 

I have a few refrigerator and freezer thermometers. 

But what I am lacking is a thermometer sensor which I can connect to a data storage device, so that I can have a continuous record of temperature history in both the refrigerator and freezer compartments. 

 

Otherwise, how would I rule out the possibility that the freezer temp or refrigerator temp might have spiked high for several hours while I was sleeping. 

 

This is the main reason I will buy, next time, a refrigerator that connects to the internet.

there's no need to cook like that.

i cook my eggs at low-medium heat. 

 

you can also eat raw egg yolks. just separate the whites and pop the yolks in your mouth. 

or add milk/nutmeg etc and make an egg nog or a smoothie.

Sometimes I get tired of eating so many omelets each week. 

And, once in a while, I decide to fast for up to 24 hours. 

And also, I sometimes enjoy a break in the monotony, and will go to the woman who makes my omelets, and order a few boxes of Panang Gai. 

 

But I never get tired of eating either eggs or chicken. I also never eat pork, beef, or fish.... 

 

Tuna I eat, though because tuna is the chicken of the sea. 

 

This is why omelets are so central to my diet, especially during the past three years. 

 

I almost never tire of omelets.

If I had my Gamma rays machine here in Thailand, then I would be willing to consume raw chicken eggs. 

 

But since I have no easy access to Gamma radiation, I always thoroughly cook anything from the chicken.

we'll get you a gamma ray machine for xmas then

The idea of chopped omelette in chicken stew sounds good

Like Monroe stated in the Seven Year Itch, it's simply scrumptious. 

 

Must be the garlic, or something...

I'd get an electric skillet with a removable pan.  Something 12" x 16" might allow you to make a huge omelette that could be cut into  a dozen pieces or so.  Or just use a hotplate and a couple pans ... cook, cool, cut.

I've been trying to find the American style electric fry pan here. Can't even find a good one on Lazada... Plenty on Amazon, though.

Medical community has mixed feelings,  regarding the correlation between egg consomption and higher cholesterol levels (LDL - the bad one). Of course anything in moderation does etc etc etc..

Well then, if one eats 1.5 5-egg omelets, almost daily, then having cholesterol levels checked periodically is cheap and easy, maybe. 

 

Good suggestion.

Is UBUY legitimate?

I actually resisted opening this thread, thinking it would be a bit silly.

 

You've surpassed my expectations.  

 

There are no solutions, and some how, you find it easier to purchase (unhappily) cooked omelets (rolled up scrambled eggs), freeze them, then defrost/microwave them easier than simply the 2 minute prep/cook time to make fresh to your liking.

 

This only highlights my own daily conundrum, why am I reading AN at all, and am I really that F'g bored ????

Suggestion to PoPo when investigating the latest member of the 'Flying Club' ... open their phone/laptop and see if AN was the last thing they were reading.
