In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour and the eggs. Gradually add in the milk and water, stirring to combine. Add the salt and butter; beat until smooth.

dumb ass recipe, how am i supposed to stir a cup of flour into one egg....

I'm going to melt some butter and put in milk and water and wisk that, then add the flour. stupid ass recipe.

>>5260107
why wouldnt you just make half the quantity if you only have 1 egg

its not going to come out right

>>5260107

alright this recipe is all wrong fuck this stupid recipe.

This is what's happening:

> Combine 2/3 cup water with 2/3 cup milk (wasn't sour, wasn't even opened so thats good)...

> melt half a stick of butter
> but butter into the water/milk,
> stir it up
> one egg in there,
> stir it up
> tablespoon of sugar
> teaspoon of salt
> half teaspoon of baking soda/powder

now wisk that shit until it looks like this.

here, forgot pic. you have to wisk it until it drips like honey... in long thin strands. Its gotta be liquidy, and syrupy at the same time. you should only be able to do HALF of a figure 8 if you try to move the wisk while its dripping.

Sorry for shit camera quality.

cause its basically flour and water are the main ingredients. the egg is just there to emulsifiy.

At this point I am going to let it rest in the fridge for 1 hour. The secret to good crepes is to give it time to make all the gluten and little air bubbles from the baking soda.

After an hour I will stir it up with the wisk again.

Does anybody care how this turns out?

I'm bored, was going to make crepes earlier, but feel too sick. I'll stick around if you're going to post still.

it only takes a few seconds and the leaving in the fridge part isn't necessary.

I always say i only do shows for one person. As long as I get one laugh or one reply I'm in it all the way.

Anyway, so I guess 10 minutes more and I'll warm up the pan.

>>5260245
I'll reply as the ball rolls then. Are you going to make them presentable with the works, or plain ol' crepes?

>>5260263

They're going to be gorgeous regardless of the presentation, but i was thinking of just making nutella crapes.

alright let's do this.

I preheated my well seasoned pan to medium-high and I re-wisked the batter. it now has a bunch of bubbles in it.

now lets pour it on the pan and spread it slowly around until it makes an even layer

>>5260296

wow, /ck/ I think you are good luck. Tradition dictates that the first crepe would be the worst one out of the bunch, but this... is an amazing little pancake here.

I found some salmon cream cheese and now I think I will try to make these a little more presentable to give back, as karma dictates.

This crepe with the salmon creme chese was unbelievable

Looking good. Never had a savory crepe, but that sounds like a mouthgasm begging to happen.

They do taste great with a light layer of sour cream and maple syrup eaten rolled up.

In England these are pancakes

This recipe is really good. I'm going to save this for myself. I improvised, but it turned out perfect. These don't have a savory or sweet taste... they taste like maybe a little less sweet then croissant. So you can add ham or chese to croissant, its okay. or you can add something sweet. It works with either flavor.

Anyway, this is the second crepe... I'm going to make one with salmon creme cheese, one with nutella... and I don't know what to do with the third one. Maybe steak and cheese.

>>5260321
I thought that they were known the world over as thin French pancakes?

well, the salmon one with a little bit of mexican onions and cilantro is delicious.

Although I got that nutella crepe too close to the fishy one.

But what do we do with the third one?? Any suggestions?

>>5260365
Lemon juice and caster sugar.

>>5260378

really? i've never tried it that way... but i dont have fresh lemons, all i have is that disgusting bottled lemon juice.

>>5260382
>never tried it that way
That's a classic combination, pity that you have no fresh stuff.
Spinach, mushroom and fried chorizo is another way I like.

>>5260409

weird that i never tried it. my basic thing is like sour creme and preserves or ground beef and onions.

liver and onions in crepes is good too.

>>5260365
