Pancake Day, the best Pancake Recipe in the world


Believe me, this is the best Pancake recipe ever,

2 eggs
11/4 cups milk
2 cups unbleached white bread flour
1 tsp Salt
1 tbsp Caster Sugar
1 tbsp Butter (melted)
1 tsp easy blend dried yeast

If you have a breadmaker throw all the ingredients in except one of the egg whites and set to dough, you don`t have to mix it for long bascially until everythings blended together.
If you don`t have a breadmaker I guess you can just whisk everything to the point where you have a totally un-lumpy mixture.
When you are happy with the mixture fold in the remaining egg white and and then fry in a saucepan with virgin olive oil and have them as thin or as thick as you want.

Have them with Maple Syrup, Golden Syrup, Treacle, Honey or whatever takes your fancy.

Souper

Two of the finest soups I have ever had, can not claim them as my own unfortunately
You can not go wrong with these two and they are so easy to make.

Taste Buds Dying

I read somewhere that if you keep eating the same bland food over and over that your taste buds begin to lose their ability to recognise different flavours, also that if you are depressed or stressed you can not taste things properly.
Well I must be in that category because I am beginning to be totally and utterly bored with food, don't get me wrong I eat like a horse and seriously believe the four greatest words invented are "All you can Eat", its just that I'm not getting the enjoyment out of my meals that I should be, so this year I`m looking to reverse that trend and find food, meals and recipes that take my fancy.
Of course I don`t have an endless supply of money and I don't have 12 hours a day to make 5 course meals but i`m definitely on the lookout for food I can enjoy and maybe if its a little bit unusual the better, so keep a lookout on this Blog and I will be showcasing my favourite recipes and meals.
