PANCAKE DAY

few days ago - A****** pancakes & 'good guys' Maple syrup (need to eradicate the A word from language , similar to X)

used to use Aunt Jemima's, but now have a reasonable diy recipe using apple cider vinegar & bicarb instead of buttermilk;

for authenticity, should really have a scoop of beaten butter, like you get in the United Colonies.

Partner went fairly off-piste with ours, she cooked a smoked mackerel and cream cheese mixture and fried bacon bits to go in the batter. I was delegated the job of actually frying them, very satisfying watching my carbon steel pan wipe clean with not one stuck bit on it.



Edit: the bacon made it hard to get a thin and round pancake. I'd like to go again this week for some classic lemon and sugar ideally.

British style pancakes, had three.

One sugar + lemon, the other two sugar and double cream.

To be honest, I often completely forget about pancake day, but the kids have tended to remind me in recent years.
