Today is pancake day in France! It is a little bit like the American Groundhog day which is also held on February 2nd. According to french tradition- If February the 2nd is clear, the winter will end soon. If it is overcast there are forty more days of winter to come. Virginie of Ce Que Je Voeu have prepared a very special recipe of “Chandeleur” pancakes just for you!!!
Cook a crêpe on one side.
Loosen the crêpe from the pan with your spatula/pancake turner.
-
Hold the franc/coin in your weakest hand (for example, the left if you are right-handed), when the crêpe is ready to be turned.
-
Attempt single-handedly to flip the crêpe.
-
Enjoy good luck for the rest of the year if the crêpe lands perfectly in the pan. Suffer bad luck if the crêpe does not land well - or try again!
