I am planning to make the ziploc omlets for a show next week and have a question about cooking them. How many can I fit in the different pans? I have the Roasting Pan and the large stockpot. I made them for my husband and myself the other day and could fit 2 in the family skillet. Can you put them on top of each other, or do I have to keep them in one layer? My host is expecting 10 or more people, and I'd like to make as many as possible at one time. TIA!
 
I fit about 10 in the roasting pan, but check them to make sure they are done. I had to add a few minutes because of the cold ingredients bringing down the temp of the water. By the way, I was born in Denver, PA. My parents owed what is now Deblassis pizza shop (sorry about spelling, I have no clue) and the laundramat behind it.

Small world! I am actually from Mechanicsburg (and my parents are still there), and although my address is Denver, we live in the thriving metropolis of Bowmansville.

Thanks for the omlet advise. I think if I have the roasting pan and large stockpot going I should be able to accomodate all of them.
 
I'm glad to see you two can egg each other on, but Julie, aren't yours going to come out as Denver omlets? :confused:
 
about how long do you cook the omlets for?? And how does this work as a demo??
thanks Heather
 
I did this for a brunch I had at my house. It worked out great and everybody LOVED it. I used the slicer, chopper, etc... for omelet ingredients. Bar pan bacon went with this beautifully.
 

Frequently Asked Questions

How many Ziploc omelets can I make at once using a standard frying pan?

Using a standard frying pan, you can typically make 2 to 3 Ziploc omelets at once, depending on the size of the pan and the size of the omelets you are preparing.

Can I use a large skillet to make more Ziploc omelets at once?

Yes, a large skillet can accommodate more Ziploc omelets. Depending on the size, you may be able to make 4 to 6 omelets at the same time, allowing for a larger batch to be cooked simultaneously.

What about using a griddle for Ziploc omelets?

A griddle is an excellent option for making multiple Ziploc omelets at once. You can typically fit 6 to 8 omelets on a standard-sized griddle, making it ideal for serving larger groups.

Are there any specific pans that work best for making Ziploc omelets?

Non-stick pans or skillets are recommended for making Ziploc omelets, as they help prevent sticking and make flipping easier. A larger non-stick skillet or a griddle will allow you to make more omelets at once.

Can I stack Ziploc omelets in a pan while cooking?

It is not advisable to stack Ziploc omelets in a pan while cooking, as they need space to cook evenly. Instead, cook them in batches to ensure they are properly cooked and maintain their texture.
