I think this is a holiday that America has made its own, instead of eating pancakes we just throw beads to get women to expose themselves, I guess that would be pancakes of sorts
As far as Pancake recipies, This is the last batch I made using Alton Brown's Recipe:
Dry mix:
2 Cups AP flour
1/2 t. Baking Soda
1 t. Baking powder
1 t. Salt
2 t. Sugar
Wet:
2 Eggs seperated
2 Cups Buttermilk
4 T. melted butter
Whisk together the egg whites and the buttermilk in a small bowl. In another bowl, whisk the egg yolks with the melted butter.
Combine the buttermilk mixture with the egg yolk mixture in a large mixing bowl and whisk together until thoroughly combined. Pour the liquid ingredients on top of the pancake mix. Using a whisk, mix the batter just enough to bring it together. Don't try to work all the lumps out.
Check to see that the griddle is hot by placing a few drops of water onto to the griddle. The griddle is ready if the water dances across the surface.
Lightly butter the griddle. Wipe off thoroughly with a paper towel. (No butter should be visible.)
Gently ladle the pancake batter onto the griddle and sprinkle on fruit if desired. When bubbles begin to set around the edges of the pancake and the griddle-side of the cake is golden, gently flip the pancakes. Continue to cook 2 to 3 minutes or until the pancake is set.
