Mix sugar and a touch o' cinnamon together, plus lemon, now yer talking! You could have them with savory fillings, I love creamed mushrooms or cheese and ham. Scotch pancakes have sugar in the batter.
The pancake should be eaten HOT from the pan, (or kept warm in the oven if making a batch), and then sprinkled with sugar and fresh lemon juice squeezed over (or use 'Jif' lemon juice, which comes in a plastic lemon-shaped bottle). Or, for a change, you can make an Orange sauce, like my wife does sometimes: Orange juice heated in a pan, sugar added to your taste, with cornflour added to thicken it - keep stirring until you get a creamy consistency and then pour/spoon over the sugared pancake, either before or after it has been rolled. Yummy! 😋 P.S. It often helps to make the batter and then put it in the fridge for about an hour. The frying pan should be 'smoking hot', before adding the pancake mix, and either use butter like you did, or you can pour a little oil onto kitchen paper and wipe this round the pan.
Pancake day is the day before lent starts (Shrove Tuesday andAsh Wednesday). Traditionally, it was so you use all the rich and fatty foods up before you give them up for Lent.
Pancakes are nice with corned beef hash. Btw you can buy pancakes already prepared & packed on sale in Sainsbury's, just fry in a little oil or microwave for a few seconds.
In my country ( The Netherlands )we make all kinds of pancakes ( a little thicker then the UK ones and thinner the US ones ), but we eat it with syrup, powdered sugar, cinnamon sugar, apple or we go savoury like with cheese on it, bacon, ham or whatever tickles ur fancy ( and yes we add it to the top while cooking them when it comes to savoury or items like the thin apple slices ). And yes we flip them.
For the Crepes (even us Brits aren't arrogant enough to say they're British, they're totally just French Crepes) you need the pan to be quite hot, the butter should smoke and sizzle so they should cook pretty fast and have more colour, cooking them for a family of 5 I'll use two griddles and make like 20 of them in approx. half an hour, fresh lemon juice is essential to taste how we traditionally enjoy them, but if you go to France they'll have a crepe stall on every street market and their number one topping is Nutella, they love the stuff! Also there used to be a Diner chain in the UK called 'Little Chef' and they were famous for what they called their Jubilee pancakes, which were crepes just folded in half and filled with hot sour cherries in syrup and vanilla ice cream, then dusted with icing sugar (powdered sugar) and they were freaking good, the cherry filling can still be bought in supermarkets here in cans sold as pie filling and is exactly the same as what Little Chef used.
Very unfortunately true. Lemon’s essential, otherwise they’re not comparing it to UK pancakes it’s just a random unflavoured wrap! It’s like making a “lemon drizzle cake” without any lemons!
For toppings on the "British" pancake, it ain't just sugar and lemon. You can put whatever you like on them. My favourite topping is crunchy peanut butter.
@@ianjardine7324 Because all measuring jugs the world over have multiple units on them. It's completely standard for every US measuring jug to have ml alongside fluid ounces, just as it's standard for UK/EU jugs to have fluid ounces on them. Have you ever used one before?!
@@fredkay6743 well not everyone can eat lard and lard along with Ghee are sooooooooo high in fat. Especially saturated fat. Doctors would tell people with high blood pressure, or over weight to stay away from them.
I'm half Scottish with many Scots relatives and family friends (although born in England). I have fond memories of visiting my Aunty Madge who made Scottish pancakes - known as Drop Scones. They were never ever served with maple syrup! The only similarity to American pancakes were that they were thick, but they were also small - the size of a biscuit and served with butter and jam.
My special UK Pancake filling is slices of fresh mango and whipped double (heavy cream for JT and Anna) cream. I add two table spoons of maple syrup to the cream before I whipped it.😊❤😊
I am British and I don't make the thin pancakes and I make a thicker batter we do flip them sometimes but I find a spatula is fine. I also flavour the batter mix with cinnamon and I cook blueberries with a little sugar to use as a topping but that's because we as a family prefer fruit to syrup
When I have pancakes, I'll have either lemon juice with sugar (which is the default topping in the UK), some kind of syrup (usually "golden syrup"), or maybe some kind of chocolate spread (including Nutella).
I always have mine with maple syrup, but as kids we always had a mix of sugar and cinnamon and then lemon juice. Both ways are delicious. Also, I feel sorry how aggressive some of the comments are, I totally appreciate you guys trying to understand our culture, and I understand that you won’t just automatically be experts. Thank you for your videos, and you don’t deserve the horrible comments that some people leave for you.
flipping doesn't mean they turn out crispy, but once they are ready to turn.... they will slide about in the pan..... also lightly sprinkle sugar on then drizzle or pour lemon juice on top, then either stack another on top, repeat.. and place more on top and repeat to how many you want to roll them and eat
Here in the nordics we also make our pancakes thin, we always flip em, and in my experience, the most common "toppings" are either just sugar like you did, or whip cream and either strawberry jam or a jam they sell as made specifically for pancakes that looks like strawberry/raspberry jam but tastes kinda like a mix of both, I could not tell you what is actually in it though!
We don't tend to have them with bacon but you can make savoury ones with cheese in or cheese and small pieces of bacon. There are also recipes for stuffed pancakes, where you make a creamy or tomatoey filling with veg or meat or both, roll that in pancakes (a tiny bit like canelloni I guess?) and then put some sauce and cheese on top and bake them in the oven. This is not super common but it is delicious.
If you did want to try it again, flipped, with lemon juice and the sugar, may I suggest trying a couple of savoury options. There is the Staffordshire oatcake that is best served with (Canadian) bacon and sharp cheddar cheese wrapped up in it. There is also (not British I know) the french galette which is a savoury buckwheat flour pancake which you could also try with the bacon and cheddar cheese filling. Also interesting enough, what we call flapjacks is a more dessert form of your granola bars.
I usually have pancakes with a berry jam. But it is popular ti have Nutella, banana, maple syrup, honey. I flip my pancakes. But I am only half British though. And i do know people have pancakes with bacon in the UK. My grandparents always had that.
You can tell when the pancake is ready to flip when you see holes appearing. Then you flip. Second side usually doesn't take as long. UK pancakes aren't crepes. Crepes are even thinner. Sugar and lemon are delicious. Always eat when hot. You basically hoover them into your mouth!😁
Guys if your doing our England pancakes you definitely need to eat them hot. Also you definitely need lemon juice with the sugar. If you want to get fancy, cook your pancake and spread a thin layer of chocolate spread or slice some thin strawberries and wrap.🤙
Once cooked (both sides) plate up and spread the pancake (s)with either Blackcurrant, Raspberry or Blueberry jam (UK variety and not conserve) thinly over the top, then fold the pancake , must be eaten straight from the pan while still warm (works well on Crumpets for the rest of the year as an alternative to spreading with a quality butter. Anna try tossing a pancake , or better still a Pancake race plenty of clips of both on You Tube.
Hehe, it's Dee-lee-ah! But British pancakes are similar to crepes, just a little thicker, and cooked on both sides. Crepes, because they are so thin, tend to be paper and almost crispy, and are only cooked on one side! British ones aren't crispy, they're soft. Scotch pancakes, from Scotland, are similar to American pancakes, but have a higher ratio of flour, so they kind of have more susbtance than the fluffy Americna ones, and they cook with a slight crust, and have a more caramelised flavour. Some people put scotch pancakes in the toaster!
Those were not pancakes, crepes but not pancakes. I literally buried my grandmother so I could dig her up, play this video and she'd come back to life to complain 😂. That woman was an expert in pancakes and scones amongst many other foods.
If you’re trying to make Scottish pancakes you should try using a cast iron skillet, my gran had a huge pan made by her brother in law who worked in a foundry n it was cast metal, Anna’s is closest to a Scottish pancake and JTs had the right colour but grans pan held the heat even down low
British pancakes are substantially thicker than French crêpes (I have a second home over there - in Brittany), the French version are not pronounce 'craypes' it is 'kreps' (don't pronounce the 's'. the French do flip their pancakes, they just don't toss them, they are popular street food at French markets. They are not called flapjacks, they are pancakes and are the original style described in English cookery books as early as 1439 - 340 years before the USA existed. Pankae Day aka Shrove Tuesday is the Tuesday before lent, not after, they were made to use up the last of the dairy products before Lent in the days before refrigeration. She is pronounce Delia Smith with the accent on the first syllable which is normal in the UK, not the last as in common in the USA.
Dee-Lee-Ah Smith owns (kind of) my local football team, Norwich City, and has a restaurant at the ground. To be honest it’s not amazing but if you visit the UK you’re welcome to visit!
You have to flip our Uk pancakes Also you can’t eat them with out sugar and jug lemon juice if having the sweet option My mum used to do a savoury mince in ours as a main meal then sweet ones I used to love golden syrup in mine as I wasn’t a fan of lemon juice We also use a smaller pan You need sooooo much more sugar on ours Our mix is the same as Yorkshire pudding so it’s versatile
Yes, I flip them and yes, you need something besides the sugar. If you want them sweet and don't have lemon you can use jam or sprinkle a bit of cinnamon but another favourite is Nutella. If you want them savoury a slice of ham and some grated cheese works well. They also need to be eaten warm so either hold them in a low oven while you cook the stack or eat them as they come out of the pan. Oh and I was shouting at the PC when you were holding the pan off the heat to roll the mixture around it. If it's too thick to spread quickly, use the spatula to work it out to the edges. You need that pan to stay HOT.
I would go the American pancakes before the FRENCH crepes. In Australia and Scotland I’ve always had pancakes like you do in the US but always made them from scratch, not with a mix.
If you are thinking about using lemon and sugar. Swap the sugar for Stevia since it’s a natural sweetener, plus it is better for the body over artificial sweeteners. While for oil poured into a pan don’t use rapeseed oil, vegetable oil and palm oil. Rapeseed Oil when used too regularly has some nasty long term effects with one video mentioning it was once used as a lubricant. Instead use butter or if you can bring some butter over from the UK during any holidays give M&S a look since there is a brand called Posh Cow. Now why should you pay the extra price if you want to pique your taste buds. One of the options has maple mixed into it. And in Sainsbury’s there is a butter brand that sells butter which has chilli mixed into it. Lastly if you like honey on top of pancakes M&S sell some good honey in glass jars that range in flavour profiles. Now if the honey is left sealed after opening you can reheat the glass jar to make it runny again. Sure you can reheat honey in plastic bottles, problem with plastic bottled honey is reheating plastic releases forever plastics which when it gets into the body has negative effects. The worse being if a man wants children it can reduce the sperm count. Plus most honey sold at a cheap price and even between £1-£10 should be frowned upon because it isn’t proper honey and it also undercuts the bee keepers who try to sell honey. But since their prices can scare off people. Bee Keepers who can’t shift their honey are being put out of business even though the mass produced honey purchased in large amounts are a mix of syrups and low grade or left over honey. Also if you buy real honey over £15-£20. Not only can it be kept indefinitely, but you can also use it for antibacterial purposes unlike the cheap mass produced honey. Sure real honey can have more sugar. But in the long term your body will appreciate your choice and when it comes to the taste buds. They will become excited. Finally if you love peanut butter on pancakes or spread on the inside of rolled up pancakes. In the UK there is a brand called ManiLife who sells a chocolate spread mixed with deep roast peanut butter. Or if you want to cut the sugar out in Tesco there a Peanut Butter whose only ingredients are Peanuts with the oil coming from peanuts and the brand who makes it is Nuts About Nature. Sure its price tag is higher when compared to the most popular brands or the cheap staff packed with many ingredients that take away the benefits of peanuts as well as too much added sugar. However since it is only 100% peanuts you can use more of it on pancakes, sandwiches or added to baking mixes also you get the benefits and a good dose of fibre, fat and protein. All three are good for the body unlike low fat and high sugar in a range of products with the worse being yoghurts using artificial sweetners. Anyway there is my comment featuring some suggestions and a few rants that I feel are valid in this day and age. Remember better quality products with less sugar and nasty ingredients means you can use more without having to deal with no guilt or long term worries. But if you do use more of a product even it has less sugar when compared with past purchased brands. It should still be used in moderation because too many people who move to another brand could see their sugar intake matching the sugar amount found in brands they use to purchase.
Ok for me and my family when we make pancakes, the ingredients we use are just plain flour (might substitute it with bread flour if we run out of plain flour), eggs, milk, salt & (finally the only ingredient that’s technically special to add to pancakes that we add) black pepper. (Like if you haven’t add black pepper to your pancakes before you should try it’s good 👍)
UK pancakes have to have a bit of salt but then adding lemon juice and sugar creates a great balance. Although American pancakes are also awesome. You can't really compare them. They both awesome in their own right. Uk pancakes are best with a bit of salt and then adding sugar and lemon maybe with some quality ice cream, banana and toffee sauce. American pancakes best with crispy bacon (or a good vegan sub like' this isnt bacon') or a chip shop style sausage and genuine Canadian maple syrup. Either way, in my experience pancakes for breakfast are an American thing and I totally love it. US Pancakes, sourdough with real butter, beans, lavabread, poached egg, avocado, sour cream, chilli flakes, bacon rashers and maple syrup just the best breakfast ive ever had.
Pancake Day - day before Lent - or closest Tuesday. There are lots of pancake traditions, a lot of pancake races ( people race tossing pancakes 🤣) and in Yorkshire everyone goes out to skip 🤣🤣oh and butter and sugar or sugar and lemon juice 🥰 and yes Always flip pancakes.
In the UK on pancake day (Shrove Tuesday,) there are often pancake races, where each contestant is supplied with a pan containing a pancake, and has to run the course of the race flipping their pancake repeatedly as they run - Don't ask me why - I'm as mystified as you probably are!
Pancake a day is Shrove Tuesday! You missed it this year! Lol😢 It’s always 47 days before Easter Sunday so … it moves too! Lent was a time of fasting..so pancakes used up all the fat/eggs/and sugars too. They can be tracked back to at least 1439! When the lemon juice and sugar started I don’t know! Much easier today to eat them hot ..as I make them all, sprinkle with sugar, lemon juice then roll up. Put on individual plates ie for each person add more sugar and fresh lemon juice and pop them in the microwave eat at once with a fork or knife and fork! Enjoy !!!
My family (and everyone I've ever known) only ever used a large frying pan, and you need to fill the base in one go, traditionally with oil sprayed on to the very hot pan, and you definitely want to flip. Delia is a self-made rich middle-class lady who thinks she's posh but she's really just from Norwich. Even Steven Fry (also from Norfolk, the county Norwich is the capital of) makes jokes about Norfolk people having extra fingers...
Pancake Day is otherwise known as Shrove Tuesday. The idea is to use up your remaining eggs and sugar, before you give them up for Lent, starting on Ash Wednesday - the very next day. Traditionally we squeeze lemon juice and sprinkle sugar over them. Pancakes are usually considered a sweet kind of bread in the UK, whereas bacon and sausages are savoury, hence we tend not to mix them. Keep on sucking, JT!

I prefer golden syrup and lemon, adds a slight hint of a burnt caramel flavour.
Brown sugar!
Its the only way 👍🏻

Lemon and sugar is a must and they are always eaten within 5 seconds of coming out of the pan.
Mix sugar and a touch o' cinnamon together, plus lemon, now yer talking!
You could have them with savory fillings, I love creamed mushrooms or cheese and ham.
Scotch pancakes have sugar in the batter.
Yeah, you don't want to let them get cold! Yuk!
@@SandsDolphin Never thought of adding a little cinnamon to the sugar but thanks for the tip. I'll give that a go 😋👌
Exactly this, you got to try a squeeze of orange juice added in too

Homemade pancakes a traditional British thing to have Tuesday 13th February pancake Tuesday the day before Valentine's day
Not correct, pancake day does not have a specific date , so can be from 12th to 23rd of February
We also would have fruit and icecream with pancakes. But mainly we had lemon juice and sugar
Golden syrup we use too some has chocolate spread
We always had butter, sugar and lemon on our pancakes and we only ever had them on Pancake Tuesday.
We have jam or choccy spread on ours
I've never heard anyone only cooking one side, we even have pancake races. It's normally a normal race, but you flip a pancake when running.

And in Sainsbury’s there is a butter brand that sells butter which has chilli mixed into it.
Lastly if you like honey on top of pancakes M&S sell some good honey in glass jars that range in flavour profiles. Now if the honey is left sealed after opening you can reheat the glass jar to make it runny again. Sure you can reheat honey in plastic bottles, problem with plastic bottled honey is reheating plastic releases forever plastics which when it gets into the body has negative effects. The worse being if a man wants children it can reduce the sperm count. Plus most honey sold at a cheap price and even between £1-£10 should be frowned upon because it isn’t proper honey and it also undercuts the bee keepers who try to sell honey. But since their prices can scare off people. Bee Keepers who can’t shift their honey are being put out of business even though the mass produced honey purchased in large amounts are a mix of syrups and low grade or left over honey.
Also if you buy real honey over £15-£20. Not only can it be kept indefinitely, but you can also use it for antibacterial purposes unlike the cheap mass produced honey. Sure real honey can have more sugar. But in the long term your body will appreciate your choice and when it comes to the taste buds. They will become excited. Finally if you love peanut butter on pancakes or spread on the inside of rolled up pancakes. In the UK there is a brand called ManiLife who sells a chocolate spread mixed with deep roast peanut butter. Or if you want to cut the sugar out in Tesco there a Peanut Butter whose only ingredients are Peanuts with the oil coming from peanuts and the brand who makes it is Nuts About Nature.
Sure its price tag is higher when compared to the most popular brands or the cheap staff packed with many ingredients that take away the benefits of peanuts as well as too much added sugar. However since it is only 100% peanuts you can use more of it on pancakes, sandwiches or added to baking mixes also you get the benefits and a good dose of fibre, fat and protein. All three are good for the body unlike low fat and high sugar in a range of products with the worse being yoghurts using artificial sweetners.
Anyway there is my comment featuring some suggestions and a few rants that I feel are valid in this day and age. Remember better quality products with less sugar and nasty ingredients means you can use more without having to deal with no guilt or long term worries. But if you do use more of a product even it has less sugar when compared with past purchased brands. It should still be used in moderation because too many people who move to another brand could see their sugar intake matching the sugar amount found in brands they use to purchase.
Ok for me and my family when we make pancakes, the ingredients we use are just plain flour (might substitute it with bread flour if we run out of plain flour), eggs, milk, salt & (finally the only ingredient that’s technically special to add to pancakes that we add) black pepper. (Like if you haven’t add black pepper to your pancakes before you should try it’s good 👍)
UK pancakes have to have a bit of salt but then adding lemon juice and sugar creates a great balance. Although American pancakes are also awesome. You can't really compare them. They both awesome in their own right. Uk pancakes are best with a bit of salt and then adding sugar and lemon maybe with some quality ice cream, banana and toffee sauce. American pancakes best with crispy bacon (or a good vegan sub like' this isnt bacon') or a chip shop style sausage and genuine Canadian maple syrup. Either way, in my experience pancakes for breakfast are an American thing and I totally love it. US Pancakes, sourdough with real butter, beans, lavabread, poached egg, avocado, sour cream, chilli flakes, bacon rashers and maple syrup just the best breakfast ive ever had.
LOADS OF LEMON JUICE AND LOADS OF SUGAR. NO WAY DID YOU DO THAT PROPERLY AND YES YOU NEED THEM WARM
Your energy is always so good ❤ I make pancakes for my eldest 2-3 times a day, so really no reason to watch this other than I enjoy your vibe 💐
That's like making a pizza without a tomato base!
Lemon juice is a must have!!
Or jam.
Or golden syrup
Pancake Day - day before Lent - or closest Tuesday. There are lots of pancake traditions, a lot of pancake races ( people race tossing pancakes 🤣) and in Yorkshire everyone goes out to skip 🤣🤣oh and butter and sugar or sugar and lemon juice 🥰 and yes Always flip pancakes.
Im from London i put nuttella chocolate spread on pancakes
Pancake day / shrove Tuesday is the day before Ash Wednesday which is the start of lent
I love how you pour milk into a jug that literally has ml measures on it and just use the scale instead
Rolled with fresh fruit and whipped cream in the centre
In the UK on pancake day (Shrove Tuesday,) there are often pancake races, where each contestant is supplied with a pan containing a pancake, and has to run the course of the race flipping their pancake repeatedly as they run - Don't ask me why - I'm as mystified as you probably are!
So I am late to the party. English Pancakes without the "Lemon" is like cooking Barbecue Ribs without the "Barbecue Sauce".
yeah you have to flip them, and I make mine about twice as thick as your uk one, but you need the lemon and it has to be Jif
Yes we flip them in the UK! 💗
We use cod , haddock or place in our chippy's for fish n chips

We eat the English ones hot , flipped, with lemon or orange juiced squeezed over , sugar and rolled up.
I like both
Pancake a day is Shrove Tuesday! You missed it this year! Lol😢 It’s always 47 days before Easter Sunday so … it moves too! Lent was a time of fasting..so pancakes used up all the fat/eggs/and sugars too. They can be tracked back to at least 1439! When the lemon juice and sugar started I don’t know! Much easier today to eat them hot ..as I make them all, sprinkle with sugar, lemon juice then roll up. Put on individual plates ie for each person add more sugar and fresh lemon juice and pop them in the microwave eat at once with a fork or knife and fork! Enjoy !!!
Pancakes are just like kids, the first one always turns out weird 🤣
you have to flip a British Pancake I am sure it is a bylaw somewhere, They even have flipping comations on pancake day.
Flip and must have sugar and lemon juice then rolled.
Yes we flip them! Definitely!
i've never had actual american type pancakes but have had 'scotch' ones which i think are pretty much identical
Dee-Lee-Ah is how to say Her Majesty's name.
16:57 PASS THE PIGS INIT.
Ohhh my I do the pinching technique too 😂
same as yorkshires equal parts milk eggs and flour
Melted butter in the mixture? Where did you get the recipe from? Never done that ever..
one you should have tried is chocolate spread on UK pancakes 🤤
NO point unless you have lemon and if you van imagine saying “i feel ya” its how you pronounce delia
Nutella and banana... beautiful
What next uk bread without flour?. You can't leave lemon juice out lol. Like a scone with jam and cream but leave the jam out.
My family (and everyone I've ever known) only ever used a large frying pan, and you need to fill the base in one go, traditionally with oil sprayed on to the very hot pan, and you definitely want to flip.
Delia is a self-made rich middle-class lady who thinks she's posh but she's really just from Norwich.
Even Steven Fry (also from Norfolk, the county Norwich is the capital of) makes jokes about Norfolk people having extra fingers...
You could also use brown sugar as an alternative for 🇬🇧 version
Yes we flip them and they're served hot with lemon or sugar. Good first attempt 👍
ALWAYS flip them and have hotter oil
At least they weren't begging for UK folks to send them free stuff to make money off.
Unfair comparison without JIF Lemon.
Fresh lemon juice is better.
I also prefer freshly squeezed,, it tastes much nicer than the processed stuff
@@dd-bb .. I agree, but lemons had a very limited shelf life.
@@Ubique2927 french??
@@Ubique2927 time for a trip to Specsavers!
Pancake Day is otherwise known as Shrove Tuesday. The idea is to use up your remaining eggs and sugar, before you give them up for Lent, starting on Ash Wednesday - the very next day. Traditionally we squeeze lemon juice and sprinkle sugar over them. Pancakes are usually considered a sweet kind of bread in the UK, whereas bacon and sausages are savoury, hence we tend not to mix them. Keep on sucking, JT!
Mardi Gras also falls on Shrove Tuesday. When translated means fat Tuesday. Marking the last carnival day before Ash Wednesday.
The moment you said you forgot the LEMON you lost me! do it again and do it properly 🤣
EXACTLY this!
Totally agree, my head spun.
Lemon is more important than the pancake, let's be honest.
I do not have Lemon and Sugar on my pancakes although my mother does, I just go straight for Jam or Nutella
@@glenmartin7978 HERESY! 😁😁😁. That said, my wife does this because she likes it... and to mess with me.
Hungry Jack's Pancake Mix - "Just add oil, egg & milk" - No wonder it's cheap - it's nothing but flour!!
