Egg Threads-Lightly
beat egg, and a pinch of salt. Slightly oil a skillet and heat. Add the
egg and tip the pan so it spreads thinly and evenly. Cook over low heat
until egg sets up but is not dry. The edges of the egg should turn slightly
brown. Flip over onto a plate, let cool. Cut into short narrow strips
about 1/8 inch wide, 2-3 inches long.
