If you watch Julia Child doing a French omlette, she adds a bit of water and uses an extremely hot pan. The omlette cooks is maybe 20-30 seconds with constant shaking. The methods that add milk or cream are low heat methods, and cook much slower. Both are good, just depends on what you like.

beef tongue. help me out.

I was raised on beef tongue so getting used to it was never a problem. In fact, as kids we used to fight over who got the tip,( it was the equivalent of the wishbone). If you don't like the look of it whole, then you can cut it up into two or three sections before cooking. I use a pressure cooker. This way it not only cooks faster, you don't have to look at it while it's cooking. After cooking, let it cool completely, you can even refrigerate it to chill even more. Once it's cool, the skin will peel off like a banana skin. This too need not go to waste as my dogs love it. Once peeled, it looks like any other form of beef. Place it in a bowl and cover with the strained cooking liquid to keep it from drying out. You can slice it up immediately or as you need it. Makes excellent sandwiches or you can reheat it and serve as you would a pot roast.

I love almost burned bacon because of the crispiness and saltiness. It also goes soooo well with over-easy eggs and buttered toast. It's so perfect!

I love bacon because I can have it the first thing in the morning, at lunch on a BLT and at dinner in a salad or in one of my wife's delicious creations.

I love bacon because it is the most tasty food on the planet. I can put it in almost anything and enjoy :) The last time I found it for an unbeatable price I bought 50lbs worth LOL.

I love bacon because there is nothing else like it, but it has to be very crispy.

let's be serious .... it's the fat content. Any food that is virtually 100% fat is going to test awesome and it does

It's unapologetically sexy when it beckons you from the dimly lit kitchen in the evening... and just as sexy the next morning. I never regret waking up to bacon.
