Make it delicious and aromatic dish It’s easy if you know the nuances of its preparation. So, in the process of mixing products, it is best to use not a pan, but a ceramic or glassware, and you need to get rid of lumps using a whisk or mixer.

Sweet lovers often make the mistake of adding too much granulated sugar to the dough. The pancakes end up being dense, their consistency resembles rubber, and hard pancakes are difficult to remove from the pan and are often deformed. It would be optimal to improve the taste by serving honey, jam, condensed milk and other desserts on the table.

Whatever cooking method you choose, always add a little vegetable oil to the dough. Even pancakes made with kefir will become more elastic and will be easier to remove from the pan, which means their impeccable appearance will remain until the dish is served.

An important role in preparing good pancake dough flour plays a role - buy a product of excellent quality, which has a crumbly structure and white color.

To bake thin and airy pancakes, use sifted flour, then the baked goods will turn out unusually tender. To ensure that all components of any type of dough come together, leave the base to sit in a warm place for 20 minutes before baking.

But the number of holes that give the dish its delicacy depends on the quantity chicken eggs in the recipe. The more of them, the more elastic the dough and the lighter, so these pancakes look like lace and are not damaged during the cooking process.

One of the most subtle and fundamental nuances is the temperature of the frying pan. Usually it is heated until smoke forms, then the fire is reduced. Pancakes are baked over medium heat. To use less oil and to make pancakes easier to remove, it is better to use a Teflon-coated frying pan. If the stove does not give optimal temperature or you just can’t get the hang of it, you can buy a pancake maker - the unit allows you to bake up to 6 pancakes at a time, maintains ideal heating, allows you to bake without oil at all and, in general, significantly speeds up and makes cooking easier. Bon appetit!

Video on how to make pancake dough

Properly prepared dough is the basis. It is important to correctly select the main components, calculate the required proportions of ingredients and mix everything in correct order. A visual demonstration of the process of making pancakes is presented in the video, after watching which you will know exactly how to cook pancakes yourself.

With or without filling, or prepare pancakes according to an old Russian recipe - with yeast-free sourdough.

Any business has its own subtleties and tricks. And especially when preparing dough for pancakes. The traditions of preparing dough for pancakes have evolved over centuries, and by following them, you will always be able to bake rosy and fluffy pancakes for the holiday.

All components for the dough should be at room temperature. Place eggs, vegetable or butter, milk (water) on the table in advance to warm them up. And, by the way, the temperature in the kitchen should be quite high - this way the yeast pancakes will ripen faster.

Flour for pancakes (and not only for them) must be sifted. And the point is not in separating unnecessary particles and lumps, but in saturating the flour with air. Much less sifted flour is used, and the pancakes turn out fluffy and tender. You should sift the flour immediately before adding it to the dough.

It is advisable to choose the freshest eggs for pancakes. Ideal option- homemade eggs. It is recommended to grind the yolks with sugar (or beat with a mixer) and add to the dough at the beginning of the kneading, and beat the whites with a pinch of salt or lemon juice and add to the dough after it has risen. Remember that the dough with the whites should be mixed from top to bottom to maintain the foamy structure of the whipped egg white. After adding the proteins, the dough is allowed to rise again and the pancakes begin to be baked.

. It is better to add salt and sugar to the dough in liquid form, dissolving them in a small amount warm water. Coarse domestic salt sometimes contains insoluble particles, so it is advisable to strain the solution through a strainer.

Excess sugar in the dough can cause the pancakes to be tough and burn, and excess salt slows down fermentation and the pancakes can turn out pale.

The sequence of mixing the components also has its own characteristics. First, mix everything liquid ingredients, and then pour them in a thin stream into the sifted flour. If you overdo it with liquid, do not pour flour directly into the bowl with the dough, pour a small amount into a separate bowl, add flour, mix and combine with the rest of the dough.

. Vegetable oil or butter should be added to the prepared dough. And here, more than ever, you need to remember the measure: 2-3 tablespoons will be quite enough. Otherwise, the pancakes may turn out heavy, dense and undercooked.

The kefir (yogurt) dough should not be beaten for too long, as this will make it sticky and the pancakes will be rubbery.

If you are preparing pancake batter with baking powder (or baking powder), then it should be taken 2 times more than soda.

Never quench soda with acid in a spoon before adding it to the dough! The whole point of adding soda is lost, because when extinguished it releases carbon dioxide, which gives the pancakes fluffiness. Soda and acid (citric, acetic or sour milk) should meet in the dough, reunite and thereby give the desired airiness to your pancakes.

. Yeast pancakes They turn out tastier with milk, and more fluffy with water. If you take milk diluted with water, you can reach some kind of consensus. However, this is a matter of taste.

Milk easily absorbs odors. Therefore, it should not be kept near strong-smelling foods ( salted fish, smoked meats, cheese, etc.), otherwise your pancakes will have an unpleasant aftertaste.

Before kneading, pressed yeast should be “knocked”, that is, awakened and allowed to rise a little. To do this, dilute the amount of yeast specified in the recipe into ½-⅓ cup. warm sweetened water, stir and leave in a warm place. The yeast will rise up like a head. The process has begun! All you have to do is knead the dough and let it rise.

. The yeast dough should rise 2-3 times. If the dough does not ferment well, the pancakes will turn out too dense, and if it does not ferment, they will taste pale and sour.

Yeast dough cannot be whipped and mixed as usual unleavened dough for pancakes. Seize the moment when it has completely risen and bake pancakes, scooping the dough on top with a spoon.

If you miss the moment and the dough has fermented, add a little cold water and torment, let it rise again.

If you want to bake buckwheat pancakes, try to find flour made from green, unroasted buckwheat. However, regular buckwheat flour can be used, but it needs to be boiled before mixing it into the dough. Not brewed buckwheat flour makes the dough very heavy, the pancakes can turn out dense and viscous. Brew the amount of buckwheat flour specified in the recipe with the same amount hot water(not boiling water!), stir quickly and let cool to 40°C.

. The first pancake may not be lumpy, but its role is very important: after trying it, you will find out what ingredients are missing for perfect pancakes. You may need to add salt or sugar (diluted in water), or change the consistency by adding flour or liquid.

You need to turn the pancake from one side to the other after holes appear on its surface and the edges are dry.

Before flipping the pancake, run a knife under the edges. The pancake will turn over without any problems, and there will be no pieces of sticky dough left in the pan.

Place the finished pancakes on a plate, brushing each one with melted butter, and cover with a towel to keep them warm. Now you can buy special pancake makers - flat dishes with a high ceramic lid. They hold the temperature well, and the pancakes do not dry out or “soak” in them.

These are the secrets - simple but important. For those who want to bake for real traditional pancakes on sourdough, it should be remembered that 1 cup of mature sourdough is equal to 30 g of pressed yeast. And for baking wheat pancakes quite suitable rye sourdough. But if you don't like the sour taste rye flour, the starter can be overfed. Usually three days are enough. But wheat sourdough ages quickly and tends to deviate towards pathogenic flora, so it needs to be updated more often. Otherwise, the technology for preparing sourdough dough is no different from preparing regular test by leaps and bounds.
