Today is Shrove Tuesday and that means its pancakes for tea!
Of course it also means that it will be the start of Lent tomorrow. You can read all about customs and traditions surrounding Shrove Tuesday and find recipes at the link here.
What do you like on your pancakes? Some choose lemon or orange, and some like something a bit more sickly like Lyles Golden Syrup. When i was little my dad used to make blackberry vinegar and we used to have that, i wonder what happened to the recipe for that.
Whatever you choose to have with your pancakes, i hope you enjoy them
Yummy, pancakes!! I love drizzling syrup on them, but I have to be in a real "sweet tooth" mood for that, otherwise just a good squeeze of lemon and a little sugar
ReplyDeletehad forgotten off to make sure there are enough eggs left
ReplyDeleteI like pure maple syrup and butter. Not alot of syrup though, it is too sweet.

We have golden syrup and strawberry sauce, but may have to go and get some oranges
