Basic Crepes #2

2/3       Cup          Milk
3          Tblspns    Oil
1/2       Cup          All-Purpose Flour
1/4       Tspn         Salt

In medium bowl, stir together beaten eggs, milk and 1 Tbsp. oil. Gradually stir in flour and salt;
beat until smooth. Cover and refrigerate at least 1 hour. Lightly brush a six or seven inch crepe
pan or skillet with some of the remaining oil; heat until hot. Stir batter.

Pour about 2 Tbsp. batter into hot pan; tilt quickly so that batter runs to cover the bottom of the
pan thinly but completely. Cook, turning once, until light brown on both sides. Repeat, using all
the batter. Brush pan with oil when necessary. Recipe make about 12 crepes.

NOTES : Tip for better crepes. Batter should be about as thick as heavy cream. The pan should
be quite hot but if oil begins to smotke, lift pan from heat source until it cools slightly. Expect the
first few crepes to stick to the pan. If early crepes come out misshapen, use them for deep-frioed
snacks or noodles.

4         Large     Eggs

1         Cup        Cold Water
4         Tblspns  Butter -- melted
                          Salad Oil

Combine flour, salt and eggs; blend well. Blend in milk, water and butter. Mix well. Refrigerate
batter for at least 2 hours, allowing the flour particles to swell and soften so that the crepes are
light in texture. Brush the bottom of a 6 or 7" crepe pan or heavy skillet lightly with salad oil and
heat pan over medium heat until just hot, not smoking.

Pour scant 1/4 cup of batter in pan and quickly tilt pan in all directions to run batter all over
bottom of pan in a thin film. Cook for about 1 minute. Lift edge of crepe to test for doneness.
The crepe is ready for flipping when it can be shaken loose from the bottom of pan.

Flip the crepe and cook for about 1/2 minute on other side; this is rarely more than a spotty brown
and is used as side on which filling is placed. Crepes can be made in advance and stacked between
layers of waxed paper to prevent them from sticking. Crepes can be frozen; heat them in a covered
dish at 300 degrees to thaw. Yield; about 22 crepes

1      tablespoon    sugar
1      teaspoon       baking soda
1      teaspoon       salt
2      tablespoons  butter

To prepare starter:
Mix together 2 cups flour, 2 cups warm water, and 1 pkg. dry yeast in a bowl. Cover with damp
cloth and let stand in a warm place overnight or for at least 6 hours. (If left in oven, there is not
need to turn on oven; pilot light will provide enough heat or turn electric oven to "warm".)

To prepare Hot Cakes:
Measure 1/2 cup sourdough starter and place in closed... Heat griddle over medium heat. Use 1/4
cup batter for one medium-size hot cake. Pour onto hot griddle. Turn hot cake when top is covered
with bubbles and edges looked cooked. Brown on second side. Serve with honey and melted butter.

Sour Dough Hot Cakes #2

STARTER: Old time recipe.
1/4      package  granular dry yeast
1/4      cup          luke warm water
                           Flour

Dissolve yeast in luke warm water. Put dissolved yeast into a bowl and add enough flour
(3/4 to 1 Cup unsifted) to make a running batter. Place in small crock or in large jar. Do not
cover tightly. Just cover jar with a cloth or place a saucer over the top of the jar. Put in a warm
place to sour. Each day for 5 days, add 1/2 cup luke warm water and enough flour to keep the
batter at the same consistency. You will then have a sour dough starter.

For really good flavor, dough should be properly soured before using. Every time you use some
of the starter again add water and flour. If you use only occasionally, you may store it in the
refrigerator and feed it every week with flour and water. Never put any of the mixed batter into
the starter. Keep it perfectly free from fat, egg or other leavening material.

FOR HOT CAKES: 3 Well beaten eggs 1 Cup milk 2 Cups sour dough mix 1 3/4 Cups sifted
flour 1 Tsp. soda 2 Tsp. baking powder 1/4 Cup sugar Combine all ingredients. Bake on a greased
griddle. These can be made on an ungreased griddle but in that case 1/4 Cup of melted fat must be
added. To make thinner cake add more milk. Bake at 370 degrees.

Mix together all ingredients except the butter and oil. Put half of the butter in half of the oil in a skillet
heated to medium, brown onions and potatoes cut in small dice. Cover for five minutes to help the
potatoes cook, then uncover to make them crunchy. Add remaining butter and oil to another skillet
heated to medium and add the egg mixture. Using a small spatula run around the edges of the skillet,
tipping the skillet so the uncooked egg from the center of the pan can run under the bottom of the cooked
egg. Continue to do this until the egg in the center is still just a little moist, sprinkle sautied onions and
potatoes on the omelet, roll the omelet with three folds as you turn it onto the plate.
