Many people have encountered the problem when stuffed pancakes start to tear during cooking.
There are a few tricks you can try to avoid this problem.
Expert of the online publication "BelNovosti" Yulia Arkhipova , a cook and fourth-class baker, told how to act in such a situation.
The right dough
The base of the pancakes should be thin and elastic so that it envelops the filling well and does not tear during frying.
For this, it is recommended to use a dough recipe that contains sufficient amounts of liquid and fatty ingredients such as milk and eggs.
The dough must be well mixed and brought to a uniform consistency to avoid the formation of lumps that can lead to rupture.
Optimal frying pan temperature
One of the key points when frying pancakes is the correct temperature of the pan.
It should be hot enough to ensure that the dough sticks well to the bottom of the pan and that a crust forms quickly. However, it is not recommended to overheat the pan to avoid charring the edges of the pancakes.
Applying the filling
When it comes to adding toppings, it's important not to overdo it.
It is important to use a moderate amount of filling and distribute it evenly over the surface of the pancake, leaving a small edge around the perimeter. This will help to avoid overfilling and tearing of the pancakes when rolling them.
Twisting technique
Proper rolling technique is key to creating perfect filled crepes.
The filling must be carefully spread over the surface of the pancake and then carefully rolled into a roll. In doing so, pay special attention to the edges. The movements must be smooth, and force must not be used.
