    I love the idea of a big savory dinner pancake. This recipe was delicious, but deceptively light-seeming. I could make do with half a pancake for dinner, but my husband would need more. I'd only make it for brunch if I had some light eaters over or had a lot of other brunch offerings on hand. The flowers were pretty, but it was time-consuming to remove the stamen from each one. And Speck's instructions say to put them on the pancake with "stems facing inward," but I'd interpret the accompanying photo as stems facing outwards (which would have worked better). The balsamic vinegar at the end was perfect, would try reduced balsamic vinegar. The variations she includes would be a lot easier (and quicker) than the flowers. This would be an EXCELLENT appetizer!
