Uncle Giuseppe’s Star Omelette is one of my daughter’s favorite dishes, so it can’t be missed on my blog. It’s a simple dish, but really very tasty, try it and let me know if you liked it.
The bitter herb, whose scientific name is Tanacetum balsamita, perhaps better known as Herb of St. Peter, has slightly elongated and wide leaves, with serrated edges, a faint mint/lemon scent, and a slightly bitter taste. In this omelette I’ve used only two leaves, but if you like its flavor, you can add a few more, without overdoing it, otherwise it might be too bitter.
