  • The quality of basic ingredients, such as eggs, potatoes, and virgin olive oil, is valued, as they are fundamental to the final taste of the omelet.
  • The cooking technique, including the doneness of the potatoes and onion (if used), as well as the egg's juiciness, are important factors for a flavorful omelet.
