Yes, it's almost that time of year again, where frying pans across the world play host to the magical concotion of flour, eggs, and milk, which oftentimes ends up on the ceiling/floor, that make up the trusty pancake; but once that disc of deliciousness hits a plate, it becomes a veritable edible canvas. The artist may brush it with lemon juice and a dusting of sugar for a classic cake, or they may go one (or a good few) better and serve you up a dish that is as much a feast for your eyes as your stomach!

So, denizens of Dakka; Humans; Orcs; Orks; and Cannerus; pray tell us, how do you prepare your perfect pancake?

I honestly, hate pancakes. The wife and kids love em, I always say no thanks and make some eggs and toast or something with bacon in, on, around, near it

Maybe it's something about Orks, they just don't like pancakes...

It can't be anything else, because all humans like pancakes.

Although you have given me an idea for a bacon pancake...

I very rarely make and eat pancakes, they are not one of my favourite foods, but maple syrup is (you know the real stuff 100%).

So when I make pancakes, its something like flour, egg, milk with some vinegar to make it curdle, salt. whatever else goes in there, I'd have to look at the recipe.

Then a Tablespoon full of batter goes on a skillet, and it makes a fluffy pancake about 4" diameter.

And then they make a decent Maple Syrup delivery system.

I could be wrong but I think our friends over the pond make their pancakes different to our British thin, flimsy 'pile loads of sweet crap in then roll it up' style of pancakes.
But i digress, I make mine the standard way but always have a healthy, un-healthy selection of fillers, especially peanutbutter or ice-cream. I never forget the old classics, jam, sugar and lemon juice though!!

They do, ours are more like Crepes. Still, bloody delicious, though.

I rarely eats pancake. but my fav ones for St. Valentine's day is the white choco flavor.
the best drink should be Al Capone's Moonshine =^.^=

So what? six nations starts on the 4th!

RBS 6 Nations is the most import event of this month, too true. Go Wales!!!!!!

6 nations is the unimportant sporting event.

Who wants to see their team get flogged by the All-blacks yet again?

I gave up watching it about 12 years ago.

Go the pancakes. Then I can give up religion for lent.
