What are the differences between an omelette pan and a skillet?

Size is the major issue, along with the sides of an omlet pan beig a little lower to aide in flipping. Both are nice to have. I love using mine for frying eggs.

An omelette 'skillet' is usually a little deeper to hold all the ingrediants that may be contained. It is also helpful to flip and catch the omelette.

An omelette pan has lower straight sides.

I like a square-shaped griddle for bacon & omelettes.

Non-stick (Teflon) doesn't last forever, heat destroys it.

If somebody else is buying go for the stainless steel.

r u kidding you make omelets in an omelette pan and you make something else in a skillet lol

Generally the omelet pan has a steeper slope in the sides of the pan

omelet pan is generally smaller, say 7' or 8' in diameter, has a more 'bowl' shape to it and yes, non-stick is preferable

they have omelet pans that have two compartments you put your ing. on one side then close it and you can cook it on both sides i prefer pans

korkie

Non stick and it will flip over if you are really good at it
