What is the story about?
Pancakes are a beloved dish enjoyed across the globe, with each culture adding its unique twist to this simple yet versatile food. In the United States and Canada, pancakes are
typically served for breakfast, often stacked and topped with maple syrup, butter, and sometimes fruit or chocolate chips. These pancakes are made from a thick batter containing eggs, flour, milk, and a leavening agent like baking powder. In contrast, French crêpes are thin and can be served sweet or savory, often filled with ingredients like cheese, ham, or fruit. In Mexico, pancakes are known as 'hotcakes' and are usually thicker. British pancakes are traditionally eaten on Shrove Tuesday, also known as Pancake Day, as a way to use up rich foods before Lent. Scottish pancakes, or drop scones, are smaller and made by dropping batter onto a griddle. Each variation reflects the local ingredients and culinary traditions, making pancakes a truly global dish.
