"Thin but substantial, these pancakes are delicious for brunch when topped with poached eggs, and/or for lunch or supper when reheated with a sprinkling of Parmesan cheese and served with a few spoonfuls of your favorite pasta sauce. They also work well as an accompaniment to roast meats. They benefit from reheating; somehow they become crisper without drying out."
