HINTS AND TIPS
• The best way to learn how to make crêpes is to make crêpes! If you’ve never made
them before, whip up a batch just to practice.
• Finding the perfect temperature for making crêpes is necessary for success. Start with
heat control knob in the middle or just a little lower and adjust from there. It is
common practice to count the first crêpe or two as a throwaway, so don’t worry if you
need to make a few until you find the correct temperature. In general, lower
temperature is better than higher, which will cook the batter before you have finished
spreading it onto the hotplate.
• Cooking times will vary depending on the foods you are cooking.
• After each crêpe or pancake has been cooked, simply wipe it with a cotton cloth.
Cotton is less abrasive than some kitchen papers.
• Once you’ve tried some of the recipes in this booklet, you may wish to adapt them,
using our suggestions as a guide.
• The product should not be used for cooking or defrosting frozen food.
• The difference between crêpes and galettes, is that crêpes are usually made with plain
flour and served with a sweet filling, while galettes are made with buckwheat flour and
are filled with a savoury filling.
