Lemon and sugar is a must and they are always eaten within 5 seconds of coming out of the pan.
Mix sugar and a touch o' cinnamon together, plus lemon, now yer talking!
You could have them with savory fillings, I love creamed mushrooms or cheese and ham.
Scotch pancakes have sugar in the batter.
Yeah, you don't want to let them get cold! Yuk!
@@SandsDolphin Never thought of adding a little cinnamon to the sugar but thanks for the tip. I'll give that a go 😋👌
Exactly this, you got to try a squeeze of orange juice added in too
Lemon juice and sugar!!!!
I prefer golden syrup and lemon, adds a slight hint of a burnt caramel flavour.
Brown sugar!
Its the only way 👍🏻
@@Rachel_M_ .. Also great. But traditional demands sugar.
and butter
The moment you said you forgot the LEMON you lost me! do it again and do it properly 🤣
EXACTLY this!
Totally agree, my head spun.
Lemon is more important than the pancake, let's be honest.
I do not have Lemon and Sugar on my pancakes although my mother does, I just go straight for Jam or Nutella
@@glenmartin7978 HERESY! 😁😁😁. That said, my wife does this because she likes it... and to mess with me.
My Uk pancake basic rules. Always flip. Lemon and sugar or don't even bother. Always eaten hot, straight out of the pan.
Also, they keep mentioning the word “CRISPY” which has me quite concerned for the next batch! To A&JT - crispy is not a thing with these pancakes, they’re also usually served drenched in lemon/syrup etc anyway! Just look for that golden colour, don’t try to create something “crispy”!
Or NUTELLA
Unfair comparison without JIF Lemon.
Fresh lemon juice is better.
I also prefer freshly squeezed,, it tastes much nicer than the processed stuff
@@dd-bb .. I agree, but lemons had a very limited shelf life.

UK pancakes have to be hot not cold. You definitely have to flip it and some people like myself like it with ice cream in the middle but nothing beats the good old sugar and lemon. ❤ The cooking
The sweet and sharp mix beautifully
Pancake Day is otherwise known as Shrove Tuesday. The idea is to use up your remaining eggs and sugar, before you give them up for Lent, starting on Ash Wednesday - the very next day. Traditionally we squeeze lemon juice and sprinkle sugar over them. Pancakes are usually considered a sweet kind of bread in the UK, whereas bacon and sausages are savoury, hence we tend not to mix them. Keep on sucking, JT!
Mardi Gras also falls on Shrove Tuesday. When translated means fat Tuesday. Marking the last carnival day before Ash Wednesday.
In the UK there used to be a TV advert. "Dont forget the pancakes on Jiff Lemon day". (jiff is a brand of lemon juice in a bottle) You have to use generous amounts of both sugar and lemon for the perfect pancake. Rolled and piping hot.
Always cook both sides for the British ones. I have never had them done on one side. In general most British people have them as a dessert not for breakfast or with bacon.
Needs to be cooked on both for French too.
As a kid i had them for lunch or snacks on pancake day, no other day would my mum make me pancakes. When i started making my own pancakes they were somewhere inbetween an English and an American pancake, and i just had them plain.
@@RoxanneLavender They’re quite hard to get thin when you’re first starting to learn. I destroyed quite a few in my day. We actually had some yesterday though tbh. My husband is French so we have a proper crepe pan for them. 🥰
I have Pancakes like Thin French crepe style and have them both Savory with cheese and sausage etc and then Sweet after
You definitely need sugar and lemon juice to get the full experience 🇬🇧👍👍
The pancake should be eaten HOT from the pan, (or kept warm in the oven if making a batch), and then sprinkled with sugar and fresh lemon juice squeezed over (or use 'Jif' lemon juice, which comes in a plastic lemon-shaped bottle).
Or, for a change, you can make an Orange sauce, like my wife does sometimes: Orange juice heated in a pan, sugar added to your taste, with cornflour added to thicken it - keep stirring until you get a creamy consistency and then pour/spoon over the sugared pancake, either before or after it has been rolled. Yummy! 😋
P.S. It often helps to make the batter and then put it in the fridge for about an hour. The frying pan should be 'smoking hot', before adding the pancake mix, and either use butter like you did, or you can pour a little oil onto kitchen paper and wipe this round the pan.
My pancake recipe is the same as my Yorkshire Pud recipe.
Equal amounts by volume of flour, eggs, milk, and optional pinch of salt. Whisk together the eggs and flour until all lumps are gone, then whisk in the milk. Ideally, leave to rest at room temperature for about 30 minutes before using.
While I do occasionally enjoy the traditional sugar, lemon, cinnamon option, I would definitely recommend trying it stuffed.
For a savoury option like cheese, bacon, and mushroom or chicken and sweetcorn in a white sauce, lay a stripe of filling across each pancake, and roll into a tube around the filling, line the tubes up in an oven safe dish sprinkle with grated cheese and bake until warmed through.
For a sweet option, spread Nutella on the pancake, followed by sliced banana, and either roll up into tubes, or fold in half, and then in half again to create a triangular pocket full of delicious.
If you aint using lemon juice, enough. I will wait for the re-upload 👍
Very unfortunately true. Lemon’s essential, otherwise they’re not comparing it to UK pancakes it’s just a random unflavoured wrap! It’s like making a “lemon drizzle cake” without any lemons!
Same here. No lemon - I'm out!
🤦♂️ no lemon…. Fail
@@dd-bb EPIC fail JT...😒
Where abouts in England are you from? If you get caught putting Lemon on your pancakes where I'm from, you'd get called a Tory.
Make a large jug of batter in the morning
Breakfast - Use a third for pancakes
Lunch - Use a third for toad in the hole
Dinner - Use a third for batter for your fish and chips
British engineering at its finest
I like a toad in the hole for breakfast if I have a big day ahead of me. sometimes with other items from the Hot Breakfast Menu added to it 😋
@@Rachel_M_ hopefully not an euphemism 😎
@@YourBeingParanoid me? 😳.....never..... 🙄..... Perish the thought... 😏
@@Rachel_M_ well we all like a good toad in the hole, we can at least agree on that. Its all about the quality of the sausage in my experience 😎
@@YourBeingParanoid but where would that sausage be if it wasn't lovingly enveloped in soft, warm and slightly salted cushion of Yorkshire pudding? 😏
Lemon juice and sugar and then roll it up... heaven
I LOVE the chemistry between the 2 of you! It is so wholesome to watch you working together!
If you've ever heard of 'Shrove Tuesday'... that's 'Pancake Tuesday.' + Heat your pans fully before putting something in, you want it sizzling instantly as soon as it hits the pan. Would also help when you're rubbing the butter on the pan if the pan's hot enough to actually melt some butter off.
A good way to test that a pan is heated is to put a drop of water in and see if the water droplets dance about
Pancake day is the day before lent starts (Shrove Tuesday andAsh Wednesday). Traditionally, it was so you use all the rich and fatty foods up before you give them up for Lent.
Mardi Gras
Ohh So like fat Tuesday
That UK recipe was super complicated. The one I've always used is really easy: 1 (UK) cup of flour, 1 pinch of salt, 1 egg, and 1 cup of milk. Beat with electric beater for 1 minute. Rest for half an hour in the fridge before making the pancakes in the pan.
Don't even need to measure, just go by the look of it. Should use at least 2 or 3 eggs though, otherwise what's the point.
And if you want to make "American" style, separate the egg whites and whisk separately until stiff peaks, mix your other ingredients (yolk, flour, salt, milk) and then fold in the egg whites. The batter will be super light but not runny like crepe mix.
When I cook pancakes, as soon as you have poured the 2nd pancake batter into the pan you give the hot 1st pancake a good dredge of sugar and then make sure that you add lemon juice to the sugar so no dry sugar remains and then roll up straight away and keep warm (maybe a plate over a pan of simmering water). Pancakes must be eaten hot (at least warm).
The really big difference between English pancakes and US pancakes is the use of a leavening agent, eg bicarbonate of soda (scotch pancakes, also called drop scones, have a leavening). The leavening gives the pancakes a tangy taste on the lips and at the back of the throat. The fluffier the pancake the likelihood of more tang.
Ok, you're comparing US to British pancakes and you forgot the lemon??? Poor effort. Probably the best accompaniment as far as I'm concerned.
JIF
It's literally the 1 ingredient the country agrees on......they need to make more pancakes and try them properly! 😆
Without a doubt!
@@Kazza_8240no lemon no
You would think they would research before they film this stuff. Rubbish American ingredients,wrong pan and missing the extras.
Pronounced Deelia, one of the original basic cooking teachers on tv. Lemon is a must.
You should try them with fruit in the middle and while they are still warm.
With yogurt is good, especially if you roll them like Swiss rolls. Hot or cold is also good.
Deal ya
The original TV Celebrity chef was Mrs F. Craddock (no I'm not putting her full first name).
@@stuartfaulds1580 What's wrong with Phyllis?
Pancake Day is the day before Lent (Shrove Tuesday, the day before Ash Wednesday). It is a Christian tradition; a feast day before the start of Lent.
We don't eat only pancakes on that occasion, but we would make and eat a few pancakes after dinner. We are talking maybe 2-3 each, not a plateful.
Other than that, we don't normally eat pancakes. Note to Americans, if you eat pancakes only once a year, they become more of a treat.
Future UK pancake making tips: 1. leave the batter for half hour before using, 2. Heat the pan before using. 3. Use a whole ladle of batter.
Lard should also be used to cook with, none of this oil or butter business
@@fredkay6743 well not everyone can eat lard and lard along with Ghee are sooooooooo high in fat. Especially saturated fat. Doctors would tell people with high blood pressure, or over weight to stay away from them.
@@EmilyCheetham You only need a small amount and why are you using ghee with it?
@@fredkay6743 I’m not but Iv seen people do it.
Delia, (pronounced Dee-lee-a) is a hero for basic British cookery. Lots of people will have their own recipes, but for a solid foundation of British cookery, she is spot on.
British pancakes are a basic recipe, basically the same as Yorkshire puddings, so are a blank slate to be made sweet or savoury depending on what you do with them.
delia doesnt cook british cuisine, delia IS british cuisine, her recipes are more british than tea
@@bigfrankfraser1391 you're absolutely right. The fact that even now most TV chefs use her recipe for bread sauce at Christmas tells you all you need to know. Her influence still looms large and she should be the go to for anyone wanting to learn how the basics
... who owns a football team.
lets not forget she's just as formidable on the football pitch as she is in the kitchen!!
I think we are on our 3rd Delia cook book - same one each time. Reason, after about 4-6 years of use the pages get stuck together so a new book is required. Go too recipe book for just about anything British in the kitchen.
@@stevenbeech7310 Yeah I would suggest to anyone wanting to cook to use her recipes. Can tailor them for preference later if wanted, but for an easy to follow solid result, Delia all the way.
I like that she does not mess around with her food. There's no twist, no secret knowledge, just a basic and easy to follow recipe for good results.
Did bro really just use scales to weigh out ml, using a measuring jug with ml on it 😂😂😂
It's an American jug why would it have millimetres on it?
It was gifted to them from the UK in a PO box opening video
@@ianjardine7324 Because all measuring jugs the world over have multiple units on them. It's completely standard for every US measuring jug to have ml alongside fluid ounces, just as it's standard for UK/EU jugs to have fluid ounces on them. Have you ever used one before?!
Millilitres weigh the same as grams for water and milk is pretty close. I always weugh
😂❤
American style pancakes used to be called FlapJacks, you could get them served with syrup and ice cream in Little Chef road side cafe's. Lovely, Mmmmm. Then somebody made grain bars and called them FlapJacks, I have no idea why. Not so Mmmmm!
Who else NEEDS to cook Anna and JT the British classics….
Pancakes with enough sugar AND lemon
Full English
Sunday roast
Toad in the hole
Scones
We don't call them American pancakes I'm used to calling them scotch pancakes or drop scones. Although i always preferred English pancakes with classic lemon and sugar.
They call them "American" pancakes because like everything else there, they think they invented them😂
Finally - someone who knows what a drop scone is !
Sunday evenings used to be eating drop scones from a pile wrapped in a tea-towel watching the borrowers/ chronicles of narnia etc. Good memories.
@@lucylindsay3442 we'd make sultana and lemon ones mmm
The smaller thicker ones are the original English pancakes, which are called dropped scones, or as most people now call them scotch pancakes.
You have to have lemon juice! It's like having fish and chips without vinegar. Always flip it!
Don't like lemon and can't stand vinegar either horrible taste and worse still smell anyone in a restaurant using vinegar I tell them think about us autistic with sensory issues
@@mpol701 You should never have english pancakes or fish and chips then. You should stay away from restaurants if it cause you distress as you can't stop other people enjoying their food the way they like it because of your autistic issues
@@mpol701 🤦♂
@@mpol701 Don't impose your disabilities on other people.
Always flip, eat straight away with either lemon syrup or maple syrup. Flour, 2 eggs, milk. Sugar in the batter for sweet, salt for savoury batter. 😊
British Pancakes were traditionally used as a starter for a roast dinner with gravy and onion rather than a desert. A basic pancake is just flour, an egg and some milk.
You mean Yorkshire puddings yes I know they are the same ingredients but are very different
Your thinking of yorkshire pudding which is the same batter but cooked in the oven in a deep pan, see also Toad in the hole
Nope! Yorkshire puddings and pancakes are very different! When I was little we had pancakes with stew on them.
@@Psylaine64 I'm really not getting the two confused! Maybe it's a northern thing to have pancakes with gravy!
@@Louise-je6dc are you British ? Do you know what a Yorkshire pudding is ? Yorkshire pudding was originally made to fill people up before a roast dinner . So they would need less of the more expensive items . You are either trolling or haven’t got a clue I have never heard of anyone having pancakes with gravy as a starter or with stew.
My mum would make pancakes when we didn't have any other food in the house and she couldn't afford to go shopping. And also in pancake day.
Pancake day is the start of Lent - you use up ingredients so you're not tempted during lent.
Also, if you think lemon and sugar is weird you're missing out.
It's Deeelia. 😉
I like to make a big thing of my pancakes!
I stack them flat (never rolled!) with Golden Syrup between each one, then while the very last one's cooking, I add golden syrup, sliced banana, vanilla ice cream, and a crumbled-up Flake chocolate bar, then put the last pancake on the stack, straight from the pan, so it melts the chocolate & ice cream!!! 😋😋😋
Warning!
This is NOT a 'healthy' way to eat pancakes, but if you're only doing it once a year, on Pancake Day, you may as well go over the top!! 🤣
There is a healthy way to eat pancakes?
@@EwanMarshall
Well, there's 'healthi-ER'!! 🤣🤣🤣
In my country ( The Netherlands )we make all kinds of pancakes ( a little thicker then the UK ones and thinner the US ones ), but we eat it with syrup, powdered sugar, cinnamon sugar, apple or we go savoury like with cheese on it, bacon, ham or whatever tickles ur fancy ( and yes we add it to the top while cooking them when it comes to savoury or items like the thin apple slices ).
And yes we flip them.
Some fun facts about pancakes include:
The most expensive pancake in the world costs $200 due to ingredients like 23-carat gold leaf and Madagascan vanilla
You can order Blodplätter in Sweden, which are pancakes made with pork blood
The world’s largest pancakes weighed almost 7,000 pounds
Australia, Ireland, and the UK celebrate Pancake Day as Shrove Tuesday
Pearl Milling Company was the first pancake mix in 1890
The highest pancake toss is 31 feet, one inch
The lemon is the best part, having the sweet of sugar and sour of lemon so you cannot compare, sprinkle sugar then fold the pancake a couple of times with lemon on top layer, eat with a knife and fork.
I also like lime juice on them and sometime real maple syrup.
You were a bit mean with the sugar. For that size pancake use about a dessert spoon of granulated sugar spread all over the pancake for a bit of crunch. Bear in mind that once you’ve squirted lemon juice over them as well some of the sugar will dissolve. You will not enjoy a mouthful of sharp lemon juice without something sweet to offset it. You might need a couple of goes to get the balance right for your taste buds. Always roll them up to serve and eat with a knife and fork. Good first attempt though, guys. 👏👏
That book of Delia’s went into every University student’s bags when it first came out. She’s brilliant at straightforward British cooking. She is (was?) also the Chairman of Norwich City Football Club (The Canaries) and the TV cameras soon find her in the crowd yelling her team on. 😊
Sugar and lemon on a hot flipped pancake then roll it up cut in half and eat hot.
We have shake up bottles too, but we don't need to measure the water as such, we just fill it up to the line on the bottle.
UK Pancakes should always be eaten hot, and definitely flipped, and served as a dessert not breakfast. Delia (Dee, Lee, er) over complicated the recipe too. but failed to mention you should coat the pan with oil and wait until the oil is red hot, tip out excess oil for the next one, and quickly add your batter.
In our house we tip from the pan on to a plate of sugar (granulated), to coat one side, thinly spread butter on the otherside.
we all like different fillings, either, as is or a sprinkle of lemon juice, or Nutella, or Strawberry Jam (Jelly, Preserve) and roll and transfer it to another plate to be eated immediately. It is also good to add a scoop of icecream too.
Danish dad pancakes:
2 eggs
1 pinch salt
1 fistful cane sugar
1 litre whole milk
add flour until desired texture
(add vanilla or poppy seeds and lemon juice for some variety)
Cook with butter on hot (3/4 heat on my stove) pan, and serve with blueberry jam
It's true we don't have bacon and syrup to together with our pancakes. We have suger with lemon or syrup or honey on its own. Or chocolate spread.
Next time try it with lemon juice and sugar.
I flip mine.
Jt and Anna, you always make my smile when I watch your videos
You can get it from cafes here
Hot pan, flip, place on plate, lemon first, sugar second, roll up, eat while still hot. What you made would be thrown back at granny.
The thick, fluffy American pancakes are what we call scotch pancakes. We can buy them ready made plain, with blueberries or my favourite lemon and sultana. Warm them in the toaster and then top with a little butter.
Pancakes use the same batter as Yorkshire puds so main and dessert.
Our pancakes need to be a bit thicker than a crepe and crispy at the edges. Cook on both sides. We have pancake tossing competitions whilst running.
Definitely serve hot with lots of lemon juice and a generous amount of caster sugar. Roll and eat with utensils.
Another way you can serve British pancakes is spread a few of them with cream cheese and wilted chopped spinach, roll them up and line them up in a rectangular oven dish. Put tomato pasta sauce over them and sprinkle grated cheese over them. Into the oven until heated through and the cheese had melted and browned. Delicious.
a flapjack in the UK is more like a cereal bar made with oats.
"LOOOOK ATTT MAAA FAAAACE"
That killed me! 😂😂😂😂
It's right up there with "A LITTLE 2 FINGER ACTION" and "IM A SUCKING MASTER!"
Pancakes are nice with corned beef hash. Btw you can buy pancakes already prepared & packed on sale in Sainsbury's, just fry in a little oil or microwave for a few seconds.
I've never known anyone not to flip pancakes. Including in France, though to be fair when I had pancakes there we were at a hotel as a school group. Growing up my mum would make 2/3 types of pancakes. There was the big pancakes, which would be the crepe type ones. We would have sugar, cinnamon and lemon juice on and be rolled. There there were small pancakes, which were thicker but smaller (maybe a few inches across)and generally had jam on them. With the small pancakes there was also the possiblility of mixing in banana into the mix to make banana pancakes. I was basically taught the difference between the mix for big pancakes, small pancakes and yorkshire pudding was the amount of milk added, other than that they were all just flour, egg and milk. Oh, also I've had pancakes as a dessert in a thai restaurant where it was a pancake wrapped around scoops of ice cream with various fruits on top I think (it has been a while since I had it).
Pancake Day is at the start of Lent. Shrove Tuesdsy.
Flapjacks are a different thing, made of oats and honey.
Pan cake day is the day BEFORE lent it symbolises the day Jesus had his last meal before fasting for lent.
For toppings on the "British" pancake, it ain't just sugar and lemon. You can put whatever you like on them. My favourite topping is crunchy peanut butter.
Longtime viewer from the UK, first time commenter love watching you guys, keep up the good work you make my day 😊
Nobody here eats pancakes for breakfast. They are a tea time treat. They are not dupposed to bd crispy. They are not supposed to be crepes!
I have them for breakfast occasionally with slices of banana and strawberry
From Germany .... We (wife and I) make the batter as in the English rezept but as thick as the US batter, so a bit more flour. Using a bit smaller pan than your's... put oil in the pan and heat up (test by dripping a drop of batter in the see if it's hot enough, it should instantly fry) pour in a ladle full and with the ladle spread it around. Then comes the best part, add slices of banana or apple. When the edges are going brown flip over but not for to long. We generally use sugar/honey/lemon/nutella and sometimes peanut butter on top.
Ooh. I need to try this. 😊
You need to find a Scotch Pancake recipie and compare that to the ready mix, because that is what American "pancake mix" intended to re-create. It includes sugar and is about 1:1 dry and wet ingredients.
English pancakes useually have a 1:2 or even a 1:3 dry to wet ratio. And you are right, they are esentially the same recipe as crepes just made thicker and flipped.
Bacon and pancakes works really well! When I make (Dutch) pancakes, I always add bacon and slices of cheese right after putting the batter in the pan. It's amazing, especially with Dutch syrup. Perfect combination of savory and sweet ❤
You should try the pancsakes hot. Even the American coaster-like pancakes would be nicer hot.
I like both, but I call the American style pancakes by their proper name. Scotch pankakes
scotch pancakes, drop scones, griddle cakes, America pancakes, whatever people call them they're actually British and became a staple in America after Eisenhower stole the recipe from the Queen 😉......
In 1959, Queen Elizabeth II treated then-President Dwight Eisenhower and his wife Mamie to her drop scones, a sweet also known as scotch pancakes, during their stay at Balmoral. The first couple were such fans of the griddle cakes that the Queen sent them her personal recipe, following their return to the States.
And that is how America got the recipe for the pancakes they enjoy every day..
also know as drop scones
American pancakes are Scottish pancakes / drop scones
@@fcnelson978 "Scotch pancakes" was more common where I grew up. I do know them as drop scones too, just not my default...
Either way, not American 😂
Always thought they were too lazyy to use the 'Scotch' before pancake.
They were called flobbies in our house 😂
In the 🇬🇧 we have American style pancakes which are called Drop Scones (Another name is Scotch Pancakes)they are cooked on a metal griddle and usually eaten cold with butter and you can add a jam of your choice (Americans call it Jelly)❤🎉🥳
Uk Pancakes/Yorkshire puddings (same recipe): 1 cup of plain flour, 1 cup of milk, 1 egg, pinch of salt.
Scotch pancakes vs English pancakes.
Incomplete English pancakes 😂. No lemon used with the sugar.
Are scotch pancakes made with whisky? Or did you mean Scots pancakes? 🤬🤣🤣
Scotch pancakes or the real name dropped scones are English and go back a long way.
@@tamus41 No booze in them, it's just the name. Like scotch eggs.
@@tamus41 No, definitely Scotch pancakes.
The UK pancake mixture is the same as Yorkshire pudding mixture.
If I'm going for a quick pancake I will do crepes. My basic go to has been (yes im british) 1/2 pint milk (half fat or full fat) 4oz plain flour and two eggs (med or large). Mix the milk and eggs first in a jug then add the flour (I do it all in 1 jug so I can also pour it from that) a hand blender is best to avoid lumps. Let sit for atleast 10mins then stir again before pouring it in the saucepan (I get 4 good size crepes from that amount, or do a ladle of batter). I also use a tablespoon of olive oil instead of butter in the pan (butter can burn easier) over med/low heat and yes flip when the top starts to look nearly set, or do the shake test as when its cooked enough to flip it'll loosen from the pan but it only needs a little time on 2nd side. And absolutely lemon juice (plenty) and a good teaspoon of white sugar is classic.
Here in Norway we have bacon bits in the batter. We make them thin (sort of) and we fill the whole pan with the batter. When they are done we sprinkle sugar on them (a lot more sugar then what you guy's used) and then we roll them and eat them with knife and fork.And we have soup on the side.Usually something called kjøttsuppe or ertesuppe. Meat soup/pea soup. Love from Norway ♥🇧🇻
Guys if your doing our England pancakes you definitely need to eat them hot. Also you definitely need lemon juice with the sugar. If you want to get fancy, cook your pancake and spread a thin layer of chocolate spread or slice some thin strawberries and wrap.🤙
Nutella & banana
I always have mine with maple syrup, but as kids we always had a mix of sugar and cinnamon and then lemon juice. Both ways are delicious. Also, I feel sorry how aggressive some of the comments are, I totally appreciate you guys trying to understand our culture, and I understand that you won’t just automatically be experts. Thank you for your videos, and you don’t deserve the horrible comments that some people leave for you.
This!!!!
Best thing about the UK ones is once you get your own ingredients/fillings of choice on there, you can roll it up like a wrap/burrito.
The 3-2-1 Batter Recipe - Ingredients for roughly 8 pancakes
300ml of Milk
2 medium eggs
100g of plain flour
Pancake day was on the 13th of February this year
The flipping comes from when one woman years ago was late for church and was making pancakes so she ran to church with a pancake in a pan and tossed it as they ran. Pancake day is the start of lent because you are supposed to fast and so they had to use up eggs flour etc so there wasn’t tasty things in the house.
I remember school sports days had pancake toss races for the parents.
That sounds like an urban legend lol....the pancake wouldn't cook if she was running outside with it, the pan woukd cool down.....or am I just really overthinking a joke? 😅
Pancake day is Shrove Tuesday which is 4th March, This is the beginning of Lent on the run up to Easter
You do the shake n Vac and put the freshness back , lol 🤣🤣
They are not flapjacks, they're completely different.
Flapjacks are a nickname for pancakes in the US.
@@marydavis5234I’ve heard that, but in the UK a flapjack is a sweet oat bar.
Toss it with that much butter in the pan and you'll have buttered walls and ceiling. Tilt or shake the pan to spread the batter to get it thinner. Should have waited till you have a lemon to squeeze.
"I'm the Pancake Person" ! 😂😂😂. Love from Birmingham, UK. 🇬🇧💕
I always used to think that Pancake Day was exactly 40 days before Easter, but apparently it's 40 days EXCLUDING the Sundays! (So, that's actually 46 days in all!)
Crepe is just the French word for pancake😉
Not. In England crepes are pronounced as craps as in they are shit. Not the same as British pancakes.
@@JazHazCrepes are pronounced as crepes in England. You're definitely not English or even British.
Its like the scene from Uncle Buck cooking breakfast lol
I was screaming at the screen ‘you need lemon juice!!!’ 😂😂 some use orange too and taste best once it hot outta the pan 🌸🇬🇧
Anna and JT are such a great couple, love their videos and wish them all the best in their lives.
Pancakes can be used for sweet or savoury dishes as its the same mix (and pretty much the same mix as Yorkshire puddings) so we make a lot of batter (and it can be refrigerated). We have pancakes with stew / mince meat and onions as well as dessert (sugar and lemon is my favourite as well as Nutella and Biscoff spread). They have to be cooked until brown to ensure they are crispy (hot pan with butter to start is a must) and eaten hot!
oh and the correct pronunciation is De-Lee-Ah lol
@markchappell3063.
I am in my fifth decade and I have *never* heard of having a pancake with stew?! I thought you were going to say the mix could maybe make dumplings which of course goes with stew but pancakes??
I can't be the only one who has never heard of this? 😊 ✌
@@ChorltonandtheWheelies I'm 45 and always had this when we didn't have dumplings. Nice and crispy and in the bottom with stew on the top....mmmm and loads of Hendersons as I'm a Sheffielder!!
They are English pancakes which are not eaten/served UK wide. In Scotland we serve ones that are similar to the US version.
Love these cooking videos ❤
I usually have a little bit of sugar and lemon on my pancakes but also add a bit of golden syrup. I can’t stand maple syrup and yes you do need to flip them & eat them whilst hot 🥞
Toppings for UK pancakes - sugar and butter, sugar and fresh lemon juice, sugar and fresh orange juice, strawberry jam or your favourite jam, Tate & Lyle Golden Syrup, ice-cream and cherries, etc. Also UK pancakes are always cooked in butter, served hot and are generally rolled - filling spread on one side of the pancake, then rolled up
lemon is mandatory guys, although savoury pancakes fill them full of mince or cheese and ham...utterly divine
Pancake day is Shrove Tuesday.
_The date varies from year to year and falls between February 3 and March 9. The specific custom of British Christians eating pancakes on Shrove Tuesday dates back to the 16th century, and it involves Christians repenting of their sins in preparation to begin the season of Lent in the Christian liturgical calendar_
In Spanish, MARDI GRAS (Fat Tuesday)
I'm a Northerner, Pancakes when I was growing up, was Lyles Golden Syrup, (We always called it treacle) or Sugar or Squeezed fresh orange juice, and when I left home, I realised Minced beef was really good too.
Il existe une recette de crêpes anglaises très simple. Prenez une tasse, remplissez-la de farine et videz-la dans un bol, utilisez la même tasse et remplissez-la de lait et videz-la dans le bol, cassez 1 ou 2 œufs dans le bol, ajoutez du sel et mélangez bien.
Hi. From 1999 to 2004 I worked for my employer in Amsterdam. Pancake restaurants exist everywhere. Pannenkoeken, in Dutch, are more like crepes than the usual US version. The flavours/fillings offered are either savoury or sweet. The savoury ones cover the whole gambit from curries to meats and pastes. The sweet again follow the range with plenty of sugar and fruits etc. on the street they sell Poffertjes. A mini pancake about the size and shape of a golf ball. Always sold hot and generally with hot butter and powdered sugar. You buy them in a small tray of approx. half a dozen with a cocktail stick to eat them with. They are marvellous.
The most famous pancake house in Amsterdam is on an old and restored carousel.
We bought a poffertjes pan when over in Netherlands in the 80's, made about 24 at a time, bit time consuming tho. Well worth the wait.

My special UK Pancake filling is slices of fresh mango and whipped double (heavy cream for JT and Anna) cream. I add two table spoons of maple syrup to the cream before I whipped it.😊❤😊
The face sized pancake comparison had us laughing. On our honeymoon we were in Mass and I had a pancake stake for breakfast. There were 3 that we called face-pancakes because of their size. I managed 1 ½ before tapping out 😂
My son was born on shrove Tuesday 'pancake day ' ..the British pancakes need lemon juice ..but saying that you can use any filling you like ..Nutella ...American pancakes are more like large pikelets which is a different thicker batter recipe
Guys UK pancakes are great. My family made then on Shrove Tuesday. The day before Ash Wednesday. In our family you put a ladle full drop it into the middle of the pan, then roll the pan around too spread the mix. We also sprinkle Nutmeg on. Cook one side, then flip it. When it’s done sprinkle sugar and squeeze lemon 🍋 on it. That’s it. ❤️💕❤️💕
Bloody Nora you 2. 😂 it dee lee ah!
As kids…we had them with sugar and lemon fresh squeezed…or sugar and orange squeezed…or sometimes with jam spread over😊
