Today, I\u2019m taking a dish they cooked quite often in my childhood kitchen for a much-needed new spin.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">On the menu: an omelette roll stuffed with salted smoked herring, grated cheese, sour cream and <a href=\"http:\/\/tchakayiti.com\/home\/brighten-shallots\/\">pickled shallots<\/a>. My take on the Haitian <em>zeu ak arans\u00f2<\/em>, herring omelette.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">This omelette\u00a0 <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">became<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\"> the bane of my existence.<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">I could not stand that dish as a child. The mere mention of those two words together <em>zeu<\/em> and <em>arans\u00f2<\/em> made me want to flee the house.\u00a0 I never liked eggs. In fact, I despise them. And something about its association with herring just didn\u2019t sit right with my senses. I simply couldn\u2019t stand its putrid smell. At least that\u2019s how my senses perceived the aromas that spread throughout the house as they prepared it.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">If memory serves me right, my dad often used my mother\u2019s <a href=\"http:\/\/tchakayiti.com\/home\/herring-chiquetaille-hareng\/\">chiquetaille de hareng<\/a> as his base. He would cook the egg in the oily mixture along with bits and pieces of the fish. That concoction simply didn\u2019t make sense to me. I never quite understood how he could stomach it. Without ever eating a bite, I myself could not stomach it.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">Yet, I could not refrain from wanting to try to adapt that recipe to my taste.<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">After rejecting this breakfast for years, I had to give it a new twist. I opted for an omelette roll because presentation-wise it made more sense. After all, like most people, I eat with my eyes first. To convince myself to try this omelet, my plating had to look amazing.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"3815\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/tchakayiti.com\/home\/smoked-herring-omelette-roll\/smoked-herring-omelette-roll-haiti-rouleau-omelette-hareng-saur-tchakayiti\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/tchakayiti.com\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/smoked-herring-omelette-roll-haiti-rouleau-omelette-hareng-saur-tchakayiti.jpg?fit=1200%2C1800&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1200,1800\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;All rights reserved.

I spread sharp grated cheddar cheese, uncooked salted smoked herring, pickled shallots and sour cream atop the cooked omelet before rolling it. These last ingredients, of course, have nothing to do with the traditional preparation method. The<a href=\"http:\/\/tchakayiti.com\/home\/brighten-shallots\/\"> pickled shallots<\/a> joined the party because I have grown fond of them these past two years. As for the cheese and sour cream, well, that mixture just makes everything better, wouldn\u2019t you agree? <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">My taste buds definitely did. <\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">The few bites I took almost made me want to make peace with eggs. <\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">Unfortunately, though no foul aromas emanated from that omelette roll, my stomach, as per usual, churned after a few bites. Something about eggy textures never sits right with me. Those dishes always seem to want to come back up. I can only eat eggs if and when they\u2019re buried in a dish that alters the texture.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 300;\">That said, I know those of you whose stomachs handle eggs well will enjoy this recipe. I can vouch for that. I do appreciate the taste of a good omelet. I just need to refrain from eating too much of it.<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>This article contains affiliate links.

Today, I\u2019m taking a dish they cooked quite often in my childhood kitchen for a much-needed new spin. On the menu: an omelette roll stuffed with salted smoked herring, grated cheese, sour cream and pickled shallots. My take on the Haitian zeu ak arans\u00f2, herring omelette. This omelette\u00a0 became the bane of my existence. I could not stand that dish as a child. The mere mention of those two words together zeu and arans\u00f2 made me want to flee the house.\u00a0 I never liked eggs. In fact, I despise them. And something about its association with herring just didn\u2019t sit right with my senses. I simply couldn\u2019t stand its putrid smell. At least that\u2019s how my senses perceived the aromas that spread throughout the house as they prepared it.\u00a0 If memory serves me right, my dad often used my mother\u2019s chiquetaille de hareng as his base. He would cook the egg in the oily mixture along with bits and pieces of the fish. That concoction simply didn\u2019t make sense to me. I never quite understood how he could stomach it. Without ever eating a bite, I myself could not stomach it. Yet, I could not refrain from wanting to try to adapt that recipe to my taste. \u00a0After rejecting this breakfast for years, I had to give it a new twist. I opted for an omelette roll because presentation-wise it made more sense. After all, like most people, I eat with my eyes first. To convince myself to try this omelet, my plating had to look amazing. The roll batter consists of a mixture of eggs, cream, salt, pepper, cayenne and freshly chopped curly parsley, which I cooked on one side in a non-stick copper pan, without any excess oil. I spread sharp grated cheddar cheese, uncooked salted smoked herring, pickled shallots and sour cream atop the cooked omelet before rolling it. These last ingredients, of course, have nothing to do with the traditional preparation method. The pickled shallots joined the party because I have grown fond of them these past two years. As for the cheese and sour cream, well, that mixture just makes everything better, wouldn\u2019t you agree? My taste buds definitely did. The few bites I took almost made me want to make peace with eggs. Unfortunately, though no foul aromas emanated from that omelette roll, my stomach, as per usual, churned after a few bites. Something about eggy textures never sits right with me. Those dishes always seem to want to come back up. I can only eat eggs if and when they\u2019re buried in a dish that alters the texture. That said, I know those of you whose stomachs handle eggs well will enjoy this recipe. I can vouch for that. I do appreciate the taste of a good omelet. I just need to refrain from eating too much of it. This article contains affiliate links. This means that I will earn a commission if you click through and make a purchase.
