"Crêpes" are anything but basic. They are buttery, creamy and it's an art to make them according to the one and only Chef Paul Bocuse.

Ingredients
 

  • 3 1/2 Tbsp (50 g) butter (Melted)
  • 2 cups (250 g) all-purpose flour
  • 1 Tbsp (12 g) sugar
  • 1/8 tsp (0.75 g) salt
  • 3 eggs
  • 2 1/8 cups (500 g) milk
  • 1 Tbsp (15 g) Dark Rum (Optional)

Instructions
 

CRÊPES PREPARATION

  • Place butter in a small sauce pan and heat on low until melted. Set aside.
  • In a mixing bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, sugar and salt. Make a well and add the eggs. Gently start mixing inwards going outwards with your mini whisk. Add the milk, a splash at a time while continuing mixing. Finally, add the cooled melted butter and mix until it is all incorporated. OPTIONAL: I like to add a Tablespoon of Dark Rum as well.

REST

  • Let your batter rest covered with a plastic wrap at room temperature for about an hour.

COOK!

  • Heat your Pancake pan on Medium 5 minutes prior starting making your "Crêpes" and slightly oil the surface with a kitchen towel.
  • Pour one large scoop of batter in your pan, spreading it over with your spatula.
  • Once one side is cooked, flip it over. Cook it for a few seconds more. Then, serve. Enjoy & Bon Appétit!
