Thin whey pancakes with holes
The pancakes made with whey turn out thin with holes all over the surface of the circle. The lacy structure is formed due to the vigorous reaction between soda and the acidic environment of hot whey. Cooking these pancakes is not difficult; they come off the skillet easily and do not tear.
Preparation time: 60 minutes.
Ingredients
Show ingredients
- whey - 1 l;
- eggs - 2 pcs;
- flour (wheat) - 300 g;
- starch - 35 g;
- baking soda - 1/2 tsp;
- fine salt - 1/2 tsp;
- white sugar - 20 g;
- neutral oil - 60 ml.
Preparation
- Prepare the list of ingredients. It is advisable to sift the flour beforehand. Any starch will do - both corn and potato.
- Pour the sugar, salt, and starch into the flour. Mix them together.
- Heat half of the whey, that is, 500 milliliters, in a saucepan until very hot, but do not boil.
- In a deep bowl, combine the eggs with the remaining 500 milliliters of whey.
- Whisk them together and gradually start adding the flour, achieving a homogeneous not too thick batter.
- Add the baking soda to the saucepan with hot whey. A vigorous reaction will start with a large amount of foam being produced.
- Begin to pour this hissing mixture into the batter while continuously mixing it.
- Now, the last ingredient remains to be added - the vegetable oil, which will not only improve the texture of the pancakes but also prevent them from sticking to the surface of the skillet.
- The resulting batter is immediately ready to use; it does not need to be steeped. Therefore, quickly heat a non-stick skillet and with a ladle pour the first thin circle of pancake batter onto it. It will immediately be covered with a huge number of small bubbles, becoming lacy.
- As soon as the edges of the pancake are browned, gently lift it with a spatula and flip it to the other side. Fry the second side less - literally for 15-20 seconds.
- Stack the finished pancakes on top of each other.
The uses for such preparations are immense. Thin whey pancakes with holes can be eaten simply with sour cream or jam. They can also be filled with meat or mushroom fillings, then fried on all sides and served with some sauce or apricot jam. Try it, it's very tasty!
