What is an Omelet Pan?
An omelet pan is somewhat hard to define, since they can come in a variety of widths and materials. Typically, omelet pans are about 6-10 inches (15.24-25.4 cm) and have a long handle that may be coated in plastic or heat resistant materials so you can grab it without having to use an oven mitt. The pan is typically shallow, usually not much more than an inch (2.54 cm) high, and the sides of the pan curve outward, making it fairly easy to slip an omelet out of the pan when it is finished.
