To broil steaks, follow the manufacturer's instructions. A 3/4-inch steak will take six to 10 minutes to broil, while a 1-inch steak will take twelve to seventeen minutes. Using an instant-read thermometer will help you determine when your steak is done. Your preference will determine whether you prefer your steak medium or well-done. You should cook either type of meat for 6-10 minutes.
Start with room temperature steaks to cook them well. To prepare your broiler for broiling, heat it to 550°F. Season the steak with 1/4 teaspoon dry mayonnaise, half a teaspoon garlic powder, one teaspoon of seasoning salt. Add a few grinds coarsely-ground black Pepper if you wish. Place the steaks 8-10 inches away from the heat source. After the steaks have been cooked through, turn them upside down.
If you want your steaks to have a great crust, you can sear them first on the stovetop. For this step, you can use a cast or regular skillet. Make sure that the skillet is preheated so that it's ready to place the steaks on it. Sprinkle half of the salt and pepper evenly on the steak. Then, sprinkle the rest of the salt over it. Next, transfer the skillet onto the broiler. Cook the meat for an additional minute.
Before broiling steaks, be sure they are at room temp. You can risk them seizing, which could affect the tenderness of your steaks. Raw meat shouldn't be kept in the fridge for longer than two hours as it can harbor harmful bacteria growth. To avoid this, remove the steak from your refrigerator at least 30 min before cooking. When the steak is done, cover it with a towel and let it rest for five more minutes.
Your steak should be cooked to 145 degrees Fahrenheit before it is roasted. USDA recommends medium rare steaks at 160 degrees F. You can do this by placing the steak on the oven's top rack. Then move the steak onto the stovetop. Finally, place the steak under the broiler. At 125 degrees, a steak is considered done. It can be undercooked if it remains in the broiler. Let it rest for 10 minutes before cutting.
A juicy steak can be cooked in the oven for about three to four minutes on each side. Next, transfer the steak to a rack. Let it rest on the rack for 10 minutes. The steak should be served at room temperature. It should be tender to the touch, and a crust has formed on it. You should cook the steak to medium rare at 125 degrees or medium rare at 135 degrees. Allow the steak to rest for 15 minutes before you serve it.

How to make an omelet that is perfect
Omelets are my favorite breakfast dish. How can you make them perfectly? There are many recipes and methods I tried, but none worked. So today, I want to share some tips and tricks with you so you can make your own delicious and fluffy omelets every morning.
When making omelets, it is important to be aware that eggs can be temperamental. They must be fresh, preferably from the organic market, and be kept cold until cooking. You must keep them cool enough to allow the whites to form properly and the yolks to become too runny if they're not kept at the right temperature. Your omelets will look strangely colored if this happens. If you intend to cook your eggs immediately, it's best to use room-temperature egg.
You can also separate the egg before you add it to the pan. You don't want any white to get mixed up with the yolk because this could cause the omelet to curdle.
The egg can burn if it is placed directly on the stovetop. Instead, microwave the egg for 10 seconds before adding it to the pan. The microwave heat cooks the eggs just right without overcooking them.
Next, let's discuss mixing the eggs. Mix eggs well together. To do this, grab the bowl of the mixer and turn it upside down. Next, shake the bowl vigorously. The egg will be thoroughly mixed in the bowl as the air is whipped.
Now comes the fun part: adding the milk to your mixture. Mix half of the milk with the eggs. Then fold the eggs in half into the remaining milk. If you still see streaks of eggs, don't worry. These streaks will disappear once the omelet has been turned over.
After you have done folding the eggs, heat the pan on medium heat. The oil will start to smoke. Once the oil begins to heat, add 1/4 cup butter and swirl the pan to coat it. Open the lid and sprinkle salt on the pan. An additional pinch of salt will prevent the omelet form sticking to your pan.
Cover the pan once the omelet is formed and allow it to cool completely. Flip the omelet with a spatula, or flip it upside down. Cook the other half for another minute. Take the omelet out of the pan and immediately serve.
This recipe is best made with whole milk. However, it can also be used with skimmed milk.
