Omelette de la mère Poulard
Omelette de la mère Poulard is a renowned French omelette that originated from the Mont Saint-Michel in Normandy, France. This dish is famously associated with Annette Poulard, also known as "La Mère Poulard," who created the recipe in the late 19th century.
History
The omelette was created by Annette Poulard in 1888 when she and her husband, Victor Poulard, opened an inn on Mont Saint-Michel. The inn quickly became famous for its unique and fluffy omelette, which was served to pilgrims and tourists visiting the island. The recipe has been passed down through generations and remains a popular dish at the inn, now a historic restaurant.
Preparation
The preparation of the Omelette de la mère Poulard is distinctive due to its simplicity and technique. The key ingredients include fresh eggs, butter, and a pinch of salt. The eggs are beaten vigorously to incorporate air, which gives the omelette its characteristic light and fluffy texture. The mixture is then cooked over an open flame in a copper pan, which helps to achieve a perfect balance of a creamy interior and a slightly crispy exterior.
Cultural Significance
The Omelette de la mère Poulard is not just a dish but a symbol of the culinary heritage of Normandy. It represents the traditional French approach to cooking, emphasizing quality ingredients and meticulous technique. The dish has become a culinary icon, attracting food enthusiasts from around the world to Mont Saint-Michel.
Restaurant
The original restaurant, La Mère Poulard, still operates on Mont Saint-Michel and continues to serve the famous omelette. The restaurant has maintained its historic charm and remains a popular destination for both tourists and culinary aficionados.
