I missed another day, so I used a star from today as I made several:
Once a year, the little village nearby (which is actually part of the town but every now and then they feel quite independent...) holds a little 'pancake festival'. The women there have a very traditional and very secret way of preparing pancakes, and on this one particular day they will stand in a screened kitchen area outside (so no one may spy on their secret methods) and bake hundreds and hundreds of those for visitors. You order your pancake, you get a number, and you wait for about 2 hours... It's madness really! But they are special, no doubt. They don't look like your ordinary pancake at all, and apparently they are deep-fried... But the insides taste like pancake - with lots and lots of eggs. :D
There's no way anyone will ever tell me how they are made. But maybe, one day, I'll find a way to recreate them...
Do they have a special name?
ReplyDeleteThey look very tasty! jummy..
Not that I've heard. Just "Kunitzer Eierkuchen" as Kunitz is the village they come from. This seems to be significant enough for connoisseurs. ;)
DeleteThe did taste really good, though.^^
