    I love these recipe experiments Vaughn does! Definitely gonna try these pancakes next time I'm making some. The only thing I'm missing is a written recipe of Vaughn's version: can it be included? Much easier to follow it written than having to watch the video a few time to get the right amount of everything :)

    Thanks Vaighn and NYT Cooking! You've taken all the guesswork out of making pancakes! Just before you made the final version, I was thinking that the recipe needed vanilla, and then voila! They look really good! Pancakes are always a good idea. Especially for dinner.

    Ive always been told that resting and chilling your batter for 15-30 minutes makes a fluffier pancake, it would have been interesting to see a rested batter pancake vs a non rested batter pancake to see if there's a difference.

    • @lisanstan1
      @lisanstan1 Рік тому +3

      the recipe I use says to let rest after mixing. the batter definitely rises and develops air bubbles making for lighter fluffier pancakes. My waffle recipes calls for the whipped egg whites.

    Thank you Thank you Thank you! I made these tonight for dinner, (Vaughn's version #4) and they are the BEST pancakes I have ever eaten! Go for the buttermilk- whip the egg whites- don't leave out the sugar. You only live once and as long as you don't eat them every day (but you might want to!) You will be FINE! :-)

    I love Vaughn’s series on modifying recipes! His beef stew is one of my mainstays. But. Just white flour??? At the very least, sub 1/3 to 1/2 of the flour with whole grain wheat, or buckwheat, or… sourdough! And yes, yes to buttermilk or other dairy plus beating the egg whites. I’ve been making Mollie Katzen’s Apple Cheese Pancakes (Moosewood Cookbook) for 40 years. They are fantastic - worth the trouble of grating an apple & beating the egg whites. Mollie has many savory pancake recipes as well. Another incredible variation is Lemon Ricotta - heavenly!

    Let’s try Vaughn’s “ultimate”
    2 more options
    (well, 5 if we want to try every combination)
    1. Replace 1/4 C flour with cornstarch.
    2. Let batter rest for 15 minutes or more (or make batter the night before).
    3. Do both
    4. try each option with and without whipping egg whites.
    Without exception diner chefs say that hydrating the flour is their secret to amazing pancakes.
    Cornstarch enhances the contrast between the fluffy interior and the crispy exterior.

  • @stephaniehyatt309
    @stephaniehyatt309 Рік тому

    When I was watching you read the initial comments, my first thought was, "He better whip those egg whites!" I've been doing this for over 20 years and whenever I try another recipe that doesn't whip, I'm mad that I wasted my time and money. I also add vanilla - why wouldn't you? I can't wait to try "your recipe" and compare it to mine. They are so similar, I suspect I will love them. BTW, wild blueberries are essential. Just sayin'...

  • @rockwelaj
    @rockwelaj Рік тому

    I'm going to base my comments on where I am on the video and then edit. At 4:28. I warm my buttermilk for faster absorption and absolutely don't over-mix. That being said, I wait around ten minutes before I actually start putting my pancakes on the griddle. Why? The baking powder. Baking powder loves time, heat and moisture.8:58 wait...who ain't using vanilla?! These aren't southern griddlecakes or southern flapjacks... these are pancakes! 10:10 I absolutely use a mix of buttermilk and regular milk. 1:1 actually. 10:34 Chile, if you don't use a damn fork! At this point, a wisk is negligible and not required. 11:05 so, yes the baking soda absolutely made the buttermilk feel itself along with the moisture to help activate the baking powder. This is why I also add the regular milk to give it some levity. 12:56 baby, that's not custard, it's undercooked. 21:52 white vinegar works better. Whether whole milk or low fat works better in this situation isn't something I've tested. 21:52 I've seen it and...fuck that jazz! Ain't nobody got time for that! 21: 52 though im not mad at the separation and mixing of the eggs and yolks, im not quite convinced it was necessary.

    If you don't want to beat the egg whites, even if you just separate the whites from the yolks and incorporate the whites gently at after everything else has been mixed it will still help achieve a lighter fluffier texture

    • @sfowler1017
      @sfowler1017 Рік тому +1

      Yeah as long as you let it sit until it kind of thickens up (5-10 minutes like he said) it truly is just as good. Bonus: you can use that technique to turn any plant milk into "buttermilk" too!

    A little whisky (or any alcohol) will help just in case you over whisk. Another way to make "every day" pancakes is to make the batter in...gasp, a blender, the way my dad did. The method does not result in fluffy pancakes but thin tender Swedish-like pancakes. And, just one appliance, the blender, from which you pour the batter onto the griddle.

  • @ajl8198

    Could the flatness of the overmixed batter also have just been caused by the batter sitting around for a while (while the original ones were cooking), causing the baking soda/powder to lose some of its initial effervescence?
