PARMESAN CREPES

Steps:

• Use Basic Crepe Recipe below and add the 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese to flour. Basic crepes: Place flour in a medium bowl. Combine milk, margarine, and egg, and add mixture to flour, stirring with a wire whisk until almost smooth. Cover batter, and chill for 1 hour. Coat an 8-inch-crepe pan or non stick skillet with vegetable cooking spray, and place over medium-high heat until hot. Remove pan from heat, and pour a scant 1/4 cup batter into pan; quickly tilt pan in all directions so batter covers pan with a thin film. Cook about 1 minute. Carefully lift edge of crepe with spatula to test for doneness. The crepe is ready to trun when it can be shaken loose from pan and the underside is lightly browned. Turn crepe over, and cook 30 seconds on the other side. Place the crepe on a towel, and allow it to cool. Repeat procedure until all of the batter is used. Stack crepes between single layers of wax paper or paper towels to prevent sticking. Yield: 12 servings.

PARMESAN CREPES

Steps:

• Melt butter. Sift the flour and salt into a bowl and stir in the beaten eggs. Add the milk or broth slowly, whisking it in, then add the butter and Parmesan. The batter should be very smooth and the consistency of cream. Let it stand at least an hour or two before making the crepes.
• To make crepes heat a crepe pan or small frying pan and melt some butter or oil in it. When the pan is almost smoking, pour in 2 to 3 tablespoons of batter at a time, swirling it around to the edges immediately. Cook for about a minute on each side. Grease the pan a bit between each crepe to avoid sticking. Makes 20 to 24 crepes. Serve with savory fillings.
