Well, an omelette is not exactly exciting cuisine. The satisfaction comes from doing it right and enjoying the simplicity of the egg.

This youtuber seems to have captured the essence of an omelette by trying, almost in vain, to replicate the technique of the famous Jacques Pepin... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5__zptEU9vE

There are certain spices that go well with egg, like tarragon, chives, shallots. Dried version of these work especially nicely with egg. You're using sea salt flakes right?

I like to froth milk with steam on my espresso machine and fold that into the eggs, right in the pan. The foam makes a nice creamy almost puffy texture.

Thanks for posting that link. Great video and his omelette at the end looked perfect. I'm definitely going to work at this some more.

I also watched the follow up video from Pepin himself:
