"Extremely light and airy omelet made exclusively with egg whites beaten to stiff peaks with cornstarch and salt. Gently cooked in a covered non-stick skillet, it acquires a golden base and fluffy center that melts in the mouth."
- Beating the egg whites into firm peaks creates a structural network of air that inflates in the heat of the skillet. - A teaspoon of cornstarch stabilizes the air bubbles and prevents the foam from deflating when cooling. - Cooking over minimum heat with a tight-fitting lid allows the steam to cook the top without burning the base of the omelet.
<p>In a clean, dry bowl, separate the egg whites from the yolks, ensuring there are no traces of yolk. This step is crucial for the success of the soufflé, as fat prevents proper beating. The secret of this recipe is the cleanliness and precision in handling the eggs, ensuring maximum aeration of the whites.</p>
<p>Start beating the egg whites at medium speed with an electric mixer, using a wire whisk. When they start to foam, add the salt and cornstarch gradually. Continue beating until you get soft, shiny peaks that form a gentle curve at the tip of the whisk, indicating the ideal texture.</p>
<p>Heat a 20-22 cm non-stick skillet over low to medium heat, essential for controlled cooking. Add the extra virgin olive oil or butter, spreading evenly over the entire surface. The temperature should be moderate to cook the omelet slowly and evenly, without burning the bottom.</p>
<p>Carefully pour the beaten egg whites into the hot skillet, leveling gently with a silicone spatula to create an even layer. Let it cook undisturbed for approximately 3-5 minutes, or until the bottom is lightly golden and the edges of the omelet begin to set. Patience here is key.</p>
<p>Reduce the heat to minimum, ensuring delicate and uniform cooking. Cover the skillet with a tight-fitting lid or aluminum foil. Let cook for another 4-6 minutes, or until the top is completely firm and cooked. The omelet should have risen considerably, displaying its soufflé texture.</p>
<p>Turn off the heat immediately after cooking is complete. With a wide spatula, slide the omelet onto a preheated plate, folding it delicately in half, if you prefer a classic presentation. Serve immediately, as it tends to wilt slightly after leaving the heat. The professional technique is speed.</p>

This preparation must be served immediately after coming out of the pan, as the soufflé loses air and volume gradually as it cools. Do not store in the refrigerator or reheat leftovers, as the texture will become watery and wilted.
Freezing this egg white soufflé omelet is not possible under any circumstances. The cooked and aerated egg white gel undergoes extreme syneresis, releasing all the water and losing consistency and shape if frozen.
