100 ml
water
1 pinch of salt

Preparation:
` Sieve the flour into a bowl, then add all ingredients and combine to form a smooth bat-
ter. Leave to stand for at least 30–60 minutes.
` Then stir the batter once more and check the consistency. The batter should be a slight-

` Grease the cooking plate (1) before preparing each individual crêpe.
` Cook the crêpes at heat level 3–4 as described in "8.2. Making crêpes" on page
17 for approx. 45–60 seconds per side. Reduce the heat level, if necessary, de-
pending on the desired degree of browning.
