And while we’re at it, what’s your opinion of pancakes and French toast?
Yes! I can’t wait to get a mouthful!
Back in the early days of WoW, my guild would play that song on Ventrilo during raids as either a celebration or as a hype up. Good times.
Only if they are blue
All very good excuses to ingest maple syrup
This is the answer. They are simply delicious vehicles for butter and maple syrup (none of that fake shit either…).
I mean…
Yes but savory french toast rules all. Red Dog Toast is also very good.
Just started rewatching this show cuz me and my friend were talking about it. Theres an upscaled version this guy’s hosting for free that’s pretty good. Show holds up. Id post link but upscaled invader zim its like result 2 on Google or something.
French toast>waffles>pancakes.
The correct answer. Tho the waffles have to be the good kind not eggo or whatever.
Of course. Made in one of those cast iron flip waffle pans and cooked enough to be a bit crisp instead of soggy.
I love waffles and pancakes, french toast is alright.
Waffles: Not that hard to do right, you just need to separate the eggwhites and whisk them hard before reintegration.
Pancakes: The breakfast workhorse. Great with a fried egg on top. Make it with rendered bacon fat instead of oil and a yoghurt-water mix instead of buttermilk for a richer flavor.
French toast: I don’t know who is out here teaching people this should be a sweet dish and garnishing it with sugar. When made savory, it’s the best of the three and not at all difficult to make if you have a good egg whisk and the right kind of bread. But it should only have enough sugar in it to help the outside caramelize! One tablespoon per three eggs is enough. Make sure you salt the eggsop, too.
Make it with rendered bacon fat instead of oil
now you’re talking
In my humble opinion: Crepes > French Toast > Pancakes > Waffles
Tip for the people who don’t like waffles: go to Belgium and visit a ‘wafelhuis’. Order a Liège or Brussels waffle with a good topping like powdered sugar, whipped cream or chocolate sauce.
Just beware that you go to a proper place and not a tourist scam saloon. If it has stupid toppings like m&m’s or Nutella go to a different place (proper chocolate sauce>>>>Nutella). If it advertises Belgian waffles instead of Liège waffles and/or Brussels waffles go away.
If you ate some Liège and Brussels waffles and still don’t like them, you are a lost cause.I would go Pancake -> French Toast -> Waffles.
All are good but pancakes are the food of the gods.
What about crêpes vs pancakes? Crêpes imho but to each their own!
Oh yeah I would go crepes for sure! I’m from Europe so I was thinking more of the crepe-y kind of pancakes anyway.
I always used to assume crêpes when people said ‘pancake’ but I have since learned of the American pancake and how different it is.
Crêpes are the best. Love a savoury crêpe so much.
They’re pretty good, but the problem I always have with waffles is that the moisture on the underside of a waffle builds up/condenses onto the plate, which creates sogginess. I always prefer my waffles to be very crisp, so this sogginess undermines that and introduces that awkward “crunchy but also ew soft” factor that screws up later waffle sections. I can fix this a little by putting a paper towel under them on the plate, but this feels wasteful and sometimes draws confusion from friends or family who don’t seem to care about this issue.
By this merit, I usually find pancakes preferable since they completely cover the plate under them, leaving no air for moisture to condense from, and they’re porous enough to just absorb any such moisture without a meaningful change in consistency anyway.
Anybody else experience this? Got tips for waffle technique?
I like all of them, I only have them occasionally though. I can’t say there is a better one but of the three I’ve had pancakes more than the other two.
Good versions of all three are delicious! Even average French toast is pretty good, but i can skip average waffles and pancakes.
I’m more of an eggs, potatoes, and bacon/sausage breakfast guy myself. I’ve not been a “cake” for breakfast man, ever. I’ll dabble in a little toasted english with butter, but want the star attractions, and leave the “fill you up with flour and sugar” stuff to others
