How does Waffle House make their omlets so fluffy?!
Waffle House, like just about every other restaurant which sells eggs by volume, adds A LITTLE BIT of baking powder to the whole eggs.
No one uses milk, half and half or any other dairy product or substitute.
This is not done for at least two reasons:
1] The additional cost of the milk or dairy product.
2] The additional time it takes to thoroughly incorporate [mix or blend] the products together.
A BIG contributing factor is the fact eggs are self-rising.
As far as what one of the other folks answered about salmonella and the eggs on a shelf: perish that thought. 95+% of the restaurants KNOW: THE FASTEST way to get fined and/or open the door for more citations or even be shut down is to have a big container of raw eggs in the open, warm kitchen air for an extended period of time.
The health inspectors walk around with those little digital instant-read thermometers AND HOPE AND PRAY restaurants will make their jobs much easier by doing inattentive things like that.
Thanks for asking your Q! I enjoyed taking the time to answer it!
