How do I make pancakes? Specifically chocolate chip pancakes...

>>	Anonymous Mon Sep 17 15:08:57 2018 No.11215921 I assume you add chocolate chips to pancake batter, oil the pan, pour the batter in the pan, flip when one side is a nice light yet semi crispy brown. Repeat that and then you should be good

lol poor guy. Ok, flour, water, baking powder,salt,sugar, milk if you have it. Find a recipe they are all the same pretty much.

pan on stove. heat. knob of butter or oil in the pan. use a ladle, scoop in some batter. this is all at a touch over medium heat. with your spatual check and make sure you're not burning the bottom but when the bubbles on are solid not liquid then flip.

repeat.

Get pancake batter, add water until it flows off a ladle in one stream if you make the batter from scratch put everything through a softer and add buttermilk until you get that consistency. Ladle it on a a flat griddle or non-stick pan with a little butter on medium heat. Sprinkle chocolate chips on the top now, don't go crazy though. Wait until you see bubbles on the top between the chocolate give it 30 seconds then flip it, give it 30 more seconds and put it on the plate and drizzle maple syrup over it with a little more butter. Bone apple teeth.

Thanks. What's the best mix to get? I tried this Swedish Pancake one and it was pretty thin and good, the Cracker Barrell one I tried was really bad. Tasted like cardboard.

I tried making a grilled cheese using the Chef John method and fucked that up too. It was so buttery I about died.

>>	Anonymous Mon Sep 17 15:49:58 2018 No.11216096 >>11216087 Also, use fresh buttermilk. If you use the powder mixed with water, the pancakes turn out crumbly. They still taste good, but they're messy.

You have to learn to judge the thickness of the batter by experience. Generally, these turn out about 3/8"-1/2" thick, I never follow directions for the buttermilk, I add it a little at a time until the batter looks right. A soup ladle or 1 cup measuring cup is just right for pouring it into the pan, and after pouring, I spread it out a little with a spoon.

>>	Anonymous Mon Sep 17 16:13:49 2018 No.11216186 >>11216156 How do you know when it looks right?

>>	Anonymous Mon Sep 17 16:19:11 2018 No.11216209 >>11216186 Experience. you could go watch some people cooking pancakes on youtube and see what the consistency looks like.

>>	Anonymous Mon Sep 17 16:19:25 2018 No.11216210 >>11216186 Based on past experience, scooping up some with a spoon and letting it drop back into the mixing bowl. At a certain consistency, the experienced pancake maker knows that it's just right.

>>	Anonymous Mon Sep 17 23:07:42 2018 No.11217751 >>11215910 Pro tip For fluffy pancakes make sure you mix your wet ingredients separately. Melted butter with egg yolks Buttermilk with egg whites. Once you do that, THEN you can mix those two together and can mix with the dry ingredients.

Pro tip #2

To determine the best surface temperature for cooking pancakes, try the water test. Drip a few drops of water on the surface, it should be just hot enough for the drops to "dance" around and gradually boil off. If they flash boil then you're too hot. If they run without any boiling them you're too cool.

As to when you should flip. If you've got the right surface temp then you should be able to wait until the top (wet) part of the pancake starts showing bubbles.

>>	Anonymous Tue Sep 18 15:38:25 2018 No.11220159 people really use water and that mix thing in first world? i just use milk eggs and flour

>>	Anonymous Tue Sep 18 15:45:20 2018 No.11220185 >>11215910 Use less water next time if you insist of pancake mix.

Anonymous Tue Sep 18 19:12:06 2018 No.11220981

Skip the guesswork and buy some birch bender brand buttermilk complete mix. Mix the batter thin almost 1/2 more water then it calls for, cover the batter for ten minutes and let the leavening agents work. Use Crisco wiped onto the pan you are using. Add chips before the flip. Best I’ve ever had.
