Fans of English cuisine will be curious to know that the inhabitants of Foggy Albion eat not only oatmeal or bacon and eggs for breakfast, but also treat themselves to crumpet.
This is a simple pastry for tea, very similar to our yeast pancakes.
Expert of the online publication "BelNovosti" Yulia Arkhipova , a cook and fourth-class baker, told how to cook British crumpet.
You will need:
- milk - 400 ml;
- flour - 300 g;
- yeast (dry) - 1 tbsp;
- powdered sugar - 1 tsp;
- soda - 1/2 tsp;
- salt - 1 tsp;
- vegetable oil - 1 tbsp;
- butter - 1 tsp.
How to cook
1. Add yeast and powdered sugar to warm milk. After complete dissolution, add another 100 ml of warm water and leave the mixture for 15 minutes.
2. Sift flour into a bowl, add soda and salt, pour in milk with yeast and beat.
The mixture should have the consistency of thick cream. If it turns out too thick, you can dilute it with water.
3. Cover the dough with a damp towel and set aside for 45 minutes.
4. Heat a frying pan, pour in vegetable oil and put in one tablespoon of dough at a time to make round pancakes.
Bake for five minutes, then turn over. Serve the crumpets with butter and tea.
