      Good basic crepe recipe. I had to add more liquid to make it easier to twirl around in the pan otherwise the batter was too thick. The taste is very good with the addition of butter instead of vegetable oil. Used to make crepe manicotti with homemade tomato sauce from our garden tomatoes.

      Blueberry-lime sauce good on other things, like ice cream

    Single subject books can be a risk at times, but this one has a reasonable price tag, a lot of engaging, interesting recipes and a lot of useful background information to boot.

      And while this batter is bang up, please be prepared to toss at least one or two of your first crêpes. It's just one of those inevitable things that's bound to happen on the road to great crêpe making
