Why pancakes break - common mistakes and what to do about it
Pancakes can tear and stick to the pan, but it is better to avoid these adventures.
On the eve of Maslenitsa this moment is most relevant.
Expert of the online publication "BelNovosti" Yulia Arkhipova - a cook, fourth-category baker told why pancakes break and how to correct the error.
Pancakes are breaking: mistakes
1. First, you need to think about whether everything is right with the dough. The first thing you need to pay attention to is the consistency of the dough.
Most often, pancakes made from liquid dough break. You can adjust this by adding the required amount of flour and mixing everything with a whisk or blender.
The ideal dough should resemble liquid sour cream.
2. The next reason is the lack of eggs. Without eggs, the dough is not elastic.
Therefore, you need to add chicken eggs or use products that can replace them.
3. Another common mistake is using cold milk. Good dough and delicious pancakes are obtained if you mix them with warm milk or kefir.
4. Also, pancakes may break if you add a lot of butter or sugar to the dough.
5. Another problem may be the quality of the flour – low gluten content, long storage, etc.
Everything can be fixed if the reason is in the recipe.
But if the frying pan has outlived its usefulness and pancakes stick to it, then it is unlikely that anything will help except another frying pan.
