Hi, Ah, makes sense.
My problem with flipping pancakes (if I don't go with the clamshell recommendation which you smartly pointed out) is that they keep sliding off my spatula -- I'm not sure if that's the right word. I'm talking about the wide, thin, and usually metal thing you use for flipping stuff. I would think using something like a fork to keep the pancake in place would help, but I'm not sure if the pancake would break since one side is still very soft. How do you manage to do this? Am I getting it wrong or using the wrong equipment? Thanks! On 7/23/2016 9:40 PM, Nicole Massey via Cookinginthedark wrote:
The name of the pan is a griddle. When making pancakes I go for "hot cake" sized, around 2.5-3 inches in diameter, and I don't overfill the griddle so I have room to turn them over without landing on another one of them. This depends on your griddle -- if you have a larger one, like my two burner Circulon model, you can do this with the six inch "pancake" size too. Anything bigger than that, which are sometimes called "flapjacks" or griddle cakes, will probably require pan flipping, and I don't know many blind folks who want to try to flip pancakes by launching them into the air. Note that these are much easier for us to do with a clamshell grill that has removable plates and one of them is a set of flat plates -- in that case it's pretty much like cooking a waffle -- pour the batter on the surface, close it, and time it . -----Original Message----- From: Parham Doustdar via Cookinginthedark [mailto:cookinginthedark@acbradio.org] Sent: Saturday, July 23, 2016 11:57 AM To: [cookinginthedark@acbradio.org] <cookinginthedark@acbradio.org> Cc: Parham Doustdar <parha...@gmail.com> Subject: [CnD] Question: how do you cook and flip pancakes? Hi all, I’m curious to know how you make pancakes. I would really appreciate it if you go more into the process of flipping it on the wide, flat pans made for cooking pancakes.
