Steps:
- Make crêpes:
- Sift flour, sugar, and salt. Add eggs, one at a time, and mix until no lumps remain (you may use an electric mixer at slow speed). Mix in lemon rind or vanilla, cognac, and melted butter. Slowly add milk and mix until batter is consistency of thin cream. Let it stand an hour or two before making crêpes.
- Heat a crêpe pan (either 6-inch or 10-inch, according to desired size of crêpes) and rub it with butter. For each crêpe, pour a little batter into the pan, tilting about to let it run over the bottom in a fairly thin layer. When lightly browned on the bottom, turn carefully and brown other side. As each crêpe is cooked, remove it to a hot platter and keep warm. Re-butter pan as needed.
- Make filling:
- Sprinkle washed, hulled, and sliced strawberries with sugar to taste and add sherry. Let stand to mellow. Heap each crêpe with sliced strawberries, roll up and arrange in a buttered chafing dish and heat over hot water. Melt currant jelly and pour over crêpes. Add and ignite cognac. Serve with plain or whipped cream.
Tips:
- Use ripe, fresh strawberries: This will ensure the best flavor and texture in your crepes.
- Make sure your crepe batter is thin and smooth: This will help the crepes cook evenly and prevent them from becoming thick and rubbery.
- Cook the crepes over medium heat: This will help prevent them from burning and ensure that they are cooked through.
- Flip the crepes carefully: Use a spatula to gently loosen the edges of the crepe before flipping it over. This will help prevent the crepe from tearing.
- Fill the crepes with your favorite fillings: Classic fillings include whipped cream, Nutella, and fruit. You can also get creative and try different savory fillings, such as cheese, ham, and eggs.
Conclusion:
Strawberry crepes are a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. With a little practice, you can easily make perfect crepes at home. So next time you're in the mood for something special, give strawberry crepes a try!
