FRENCH CRÊPES FOR FAT TUESDAY 

Mardi Gras

INSTRUCTOR: The French Alliance

For Fat Tuesday French people make crêpes. We will prepare the batter altogether in the shared kitchen, then teach you how to make these very thin pancakes. Crêpe parties are French-speaking countries favorite gatherings as they are so lively! Each crêpe takes 3-4 minutes to cook and people usually eat many, on which they spread jam, honey or Nutella. 

Several burners will be available so each of you can practice “jumping” crepes while holding a coin in their hand. If the crêpe flips and lands flat, it brings good luck and prosperity!

• French Crêpes recipe 

• How to make the batter 

• How to cook thin crêpes

TAKEAWAYS:
