Crêpes
In Paris, the street vendor crêpes are about a foot in diameter, a
real meal and a half. Topped with bananas and hazelnut spread,
or simply butter and jam, crêpes are simply delicious.

Ingredients Instructions
2 cups (240g) King Arthur 1 Combine the flour and salt in a mixing bowl. In another,
Unbleached All-Purpose Flour smaller bowl, beat together the milk and eggs.
1/2 to 3/4 teaspoon table 2 Make a well in the flour mixture and pour in about half the
salt, to taste liquid mixture. Blend well, then add the remaining liquid and
1 1/2 cups (340g) milk stir until fairly smooth; a few lumps can remain.
4 large eggs 3 Stir in the butter. Cover and let sit for at least an hour.
4 tablespoons (57g) butter,
4 Heat a pan until it's medium-hot; a 10" skillet works well
melted
here. Use a paper towel to carefully wipe the bottom of the
pan with a bit of butter.
5 Pour a scant 1/3 cup of batter into the bottom of the pan.
Pick the pan up, and tip it in a circle so the batter covers
the bottom of the pan.
6 Cook until the bottom of the crêpe begins to brown and
you can slide a spatula under it. It will hold together quite
well, so you can flip it over pretty easily. Cook briefly on
the other side, just until set, and place on a warm plate.
Cover until the remaining crêpes are cooked.
7 Fill as desired. Crêpes can be folded in quarters to eat on a
plate, or rolled, burrito-style, for a walk-around snack.

enough ahead of time so it can sit at room temperature for
an hour or so. This resting time really changes the nature of
the batter and makes for a much better crêpe.
