Making pancakes-a recipe and tips for a perfect French pancakes every time


Pancakes are so easy, low-calorie and cheap, and just about everything you so stylish with them, you may be wondering why you should not make them every day of the week.

T he ingredients:

6 oz flour

pint milk

2 eggs

2 tablespoons oil plus a little more for cooking

sugar to taste (optional)

The tools:

Deep frying pan (or crepe pan) If you're lucky enough to have a approx 8 cm

Pallet spatula

Scale/liquid sensor for mixing the batter

Kitchen scales

Stove

Plastic shopping bag or parchment paper to keep it separate from the pancakes in the stack

The method:

1. mix flour, eggs, milk and oil until very smooth and let up 20 or so minutes

2. in the meantime, put the pan on a medium heat. My burners range from 1-6, so I just to him to three on the heat and the warm pan. This is an electric heater so customize it as you on gas

3. Once you're ready to go save the heat the Cook up a notch or two and put a small decline in oil in the Pan

4. pour over a cup of the batter into the Pan and swirl around to a thin layer at the bottom

5. the boil on the one hand, to the top and the bottom is dry is golden brown

6. use your pallet knife the crepe and rotate

7. on the other hand, Cook until golden brown

8. Remove from the pan on a plate and cover with parchment or plastic bag

9. continue cooking the pancakes and them on the sheet with parchment or plastic bag between layering until you all the tips

Science:

What you create is pretty much an omelette with some flower added.

Mix the batter. you do not want all the pieces and the gluten in the flour will activate.This will ensure that the pancakes an elasticity they easy to convert.

Pancakes are referred to as flat. This is the reason why the tips are before you leave the pancakes.It lets the air you into the batter during the mixing of the escape.

Troubleshooting

The problem:My crepe never goes Brown!

The solution:Turn off the heat! make sure that your pan and oil are very hot for adding the batter

The problem:My crepe pan shall comply with the rules laid down

The solution:Turn off the heat! I really do not know why this works, but these first two problems in General.

Also, make sure you are using a good pan. that's very scratched will never be good pancakes to produce because you add too much oil in the Pan must be to them.

The pancakes can also because you sweet pancakes (with sugar in the mash) which stuck to a hot pan will if you don't have enough oil.

If your pan is good enough really isn't much need oil. really need to do a drop

The next step

Pancakes are really the easiest way you can posh of a meal. all you can have on a roll or a roll that you make to a crêpe can come up and people will think that they are a kind of complex French delicacy. ham and cheese, ricotta and spinach, chicken salad, that you name.

They Just roll up, put them in a shallow baking dish, grate on some cheese and bake for about 20 minutes.

Serve with a fresh salad or other vegetables such as asparagus or green beans. Something eat more than lunch are a sauce to pour over them.

Sweet pancakes are served with ice cream, chocolate sauce, applesauce, or just about any sweet thing that you can think of. one of my favorite recipes for pancakes is pancakes frangipane which the frangipane bit far the more difficult part of the operation.

They freeze excellent. If I have a dinner for two with pancakes will I only have two of a head and one for a starter and dessert. the rest of us can go in the freezer for next time. they can weeks in advance, which really helps if you honey is all about in the short term.

And yet, they are as simple as long as you provide the appropriate tools.

These are good for breakfast, brunch, lunch or dinner. you can even pull them out for a late supper, dessert or coffee.

It's almost no matter what you put in them. people are so impressed with your apparently advanced cooking skills which they do not notice that it's what they have on their shrimp salad sandwich yesterday.

Recommendations

A good pan and a good pallet knife/spatula are the secret with no negative pancakes. If you have any of these items are not, I suggest that you make the investment.

You do not need a crepe pan specialist, but a good 8 inch shallow non-stick baking pan is an indispensable tool.

Pancakes are almost impossible with a pallet knife or spatula. I have a degree of success with a regular spatula/egg turner but the thinner the edge, the better.
