| I'm using an old BH&G recipe for crepes. They are turning out with a rubbery texture. Does anyone have a good recipe? |
|
Mine is pretty simple - 1 cup flour, 1 cup milk, 2 eggs, 2 Tb melted butter, 1/2 tsp salt.
Two tricks to keep them from getting rubbery: 1) Let the batter rest for about 5 minutes before making the crepes. If the batter is too thick to make a really thin crepe, add a bit more milk. 2) Really hot pan. If they cook slowly, they'll get rubbery. It should basically cook as soon as you swirl it around in the pan. |
| Yes to No. 2 above! |
| Overnight rest if you can to hydrate the flours. Sun some of the white flour for buckwheat |
| My European family swears by adding carbonated water for half the liquid and using clarified butter to grease the pan |
