Pancake batter can also be used to make Yorkshire puddings- the recipe is largely the same although you may wish to add a little salt and pepper. At least, the batter recipe is equal ounces of flour and milk, with half that number in ounces as the number of eggs. So 8oz flour, 8oz whole milk and 4 eggs. 12 oz flour, 12 oz whole milk and 6 eggs, and I think you get the idea. Except, in a muffin tin, put some vegetable oil in the bottoms- enough to cover it. Use beef drippings if you're a purist. Heat at about 450 for at least 15 minutes until very hot, remove from the oven and turn it down to 350. Add enough batter in each cup in the tin to cover the bottom- if it sizzles when you pour it in, you're doing it right. Put back into the oven and bake for 30 minutes or so, until golden brown, puffy and delicious. Don't open the oven during cooking or they will deflate.

The electric tabeltop grittle are a really Dutch thing, and we call it gourmetten. Usually around holidays (e. g. Christmas) we bring those bad boys out, and they usually have little pans with them. It's common to make bite-sized meatballs, fish and other dishes that you can cook yourself It's a lot of fun, especially for kids. Don't be too hungry though because otherwise you will fill up on bread

It took me nearly 40 years to learn how to make the first batch a good run. When I season the pan with butter, wipe most all of it out. I do even more than what you did in the video. Some is still in the warm pan pores that you can't see and they won't stick, but you almost guarantee a nice even brown rather than that bullseye shape when there is a layer of liquid butter.

Not gonna lie i see no problem with using boxed pancake mix to eliminate the measuring of the dry ingredients, and using whatever you want for the wet. If you wanna be lazy and use water, cool. Wanna go traditional and use buttermilk, eggs, etc. great. If you wanna mix it up and use almond milk, some lemon juice to help it rise, maybe some matcha powder then dope.

A door that can be locked and unlocked through wifi? Yeeeaaah, knowing the numerous security holes in wifi from MitM to WPA bypassing I'm gonna have to pass, don't want just anyone in the world with the slight bit of infosec know-how to be able to unlock my door with a bit of tinkering, much less have access to cameras in my house. Remeber, NOTHING is unhackable.

Fool-proof pancake batterOh Adam, you underestimate my ability to screw up pancakes. I can cook just about everything I want but when it comes to pancakes my brain just sort of shorts out. Even when I'm sure I've done everything right and the consistency looks perfect it turns out I put way too little sugar in or something. There's always something wrong.

Adam, you should do some research on Simplisafe. Some terrible stuff has happened at several company sites, and I - personally - wouldn't put any sort of audio/video devices in my house considering some of the controversies that have happened with other home security companies. Also, that door lock has been proven as easily, silently hackable.

Maybe it's weird, but am I the only one who prefers dense pancakes over fluffy pancakes? I always make sure my batter is extra thicc so the size of the pancake is smallish and the texture is crispy on the outside, and dense on the inside. I also add a hint of brown sugar for extra pzazz. Am I weird?

Your pancakes are ugly/not evenly browned in my opinion. I use a new enough non-stick pan that it doesn't need any fat and I cook it on a low-medium temperature. I find that having fat on the pan causes that mottled appearance, at least butter does, perhaps vegetable oil doesn't cause that.

this is the one thing in cooking i actually consider myself an expert at but i watched the video anyway. you're completely right in saying the most difficult part is getting and maintaining the right heat. you're also completely right in saying the second batch always looks better.
