http://www.deliaonline.com/recipes/b...on,803,RC.html (ha ha, Lisa was posting the same link whilst I was typing my reply....might as well keep it here though!) and here are some of the ancient English traditions (many of them still take place to this day) regarding Shrove Tuesday/Pancake Day). It also includes a photo and recipe - and they are so simple to make http://www.woodlands-junior.kent.sch...ms/pancakeday/ I'll be having mine with (Jif) lemon and sugar....:thumbup: |
Re: Pancakes anyone?
Just made the Delia pancakes. They came out really nice. For those without scales, the 4 oz. of plain flour equals 1 cup.

American pancakes batter is thicker and the outcome is a little more bready/cakey ... because of yeast I suppose. |

British pancakes are exactly the same thing as what Americans call crepes. I just don't know what a British version of the crepe would be.

Re: Pancakes anyone?
I made some the other day, my Wife said they were crepe, but I thought they were alright!
Anyway I make mine with strawberries that have been warmed in a sugar syrup. Or with Lemon and sugar. |
