It's Not Salmon

In response to Wirecutter's post as well as the one I did on IHOP's crap, I give you pancake as they should be.

Tasty, light, fluffy with a bit of texture and a crispy, lacey crust. A smear of butter and a drizzle of maple syrup (the fake stuff not the real) and it's a gift of the gods in the Midwest. And oh, so simple to make.

Readers I present pancakes in all their glory......

In the pan...

 On the plate...

 

 

 

 Only three cakes but stacking up over two inches high!...

Take that Ken!

Pancakes

This just in....IHOP pancakes SUCK! Jesus be with me! My worst efforts at flapjack making is far better that the pile crap I attempted to eat this morning. I was going to fix a great breakfast for my visiting brother and my mom and stepdad. BUT, brother saw an ad for some crepe stack that he thought look WONDERFUL. Of course the local IHOP did not have it. I ordered the buttermilk pancake stack and could only force myself to eat less that half of it before my taste buds revolted. It tasted like flour and water and was mushy to boot. When I looked at the crowd that was stuffing their face with this shit it occurred to me that if I could get some backing funds I could addict a few generation to my breakfast creations. I make some mean pancakes and many folks have urged me get a restaurant after eating some of my cooking. Oh, well. Mark that joint off my list of places to eat. I quit eating their over 20 years ago and now I remember why.
Due to the weather my brother flight has been put off until Monday so maybe I can make something good for him before he returns to Kalifornia.
