The pancakes will not tear or dry out, they will be thin and delicate.

Many chefs have their own signature secrets for making perfect pancakes.

But some variations have weak points: they tear in the pan, dry out at the edges, and turn out thicker than desired.

Subtleties of cooking

Experienced cooks use one tried and tested recipe for years, which never fails them. Often housewives add 2 eggs, but this is not enough.

In addition, milk must be diluted. Then holes will appear during the cooking process. Milk is mixed with regular or carbonated water.

Ideal proportions

Milk and water are diluted in equal proportions. For 1 liter of liquid, take not 2, but 4 eggs.

For this volume, use 400 g of flour, 40 g of sugar, 4 g of salt and 80 g of butter. As for the last ingredient, you can take vegetable or butter - at the cook's choice.
