Galette and Crepes!

Try it out:


Making: 
1. Ham and cheese Galette
2. Crepe with fig syrup 

3 each prepared 

Here's what I have:

100 G buckwheat flour 
1/4 Tsp salt 
1 egg 
300 Grams of whole milk 
2 Tbsp maple syrup + 3 tbsp
30 Grams unsalted butter 

*Ham
*Cheese
*Fig syrup 

Preparation:

A 10 inch ceramic non-stick pan was used. Medium high heat to cook.

Per the directions on the website the dry ingredients were mixed with the egg, 2 tablespoons of maple syrup and half of the milk. This was mixed to a paste before adding the remaining milk and stirred until smooth.

Instead of melting the butter in the pan and pouring it out I took a cold stick of butter and brushed the hot pan with it until coated. I did this between each Galette and Crepe. Any crumbs or overy browned butter were wiped off if necessary.

Galette!
From there using a 1/3 measuring cup I added the batter and swirled around the pan until the bottom was coated.  The galette were allowed to cook for 3 mins before adding topping to one side. The gala twisting fold it in half and then again to make a triangle. Repeat three times. 

Crepe!
Once the galettes were prepared the additional maple syrup was added and blended into the remaining batter.  Once again after brushing the pan with the butter stick 1/3 cup of batter was added and swirled around the pan.  

The Crepe was allowed to cook for 3 mins until cooked through. It was turned once and allowed to cook for 2 minutes.  Fig syrup was spread over the Crepe and then rolled. 


The plates!

Bacon butter!

Making: Today I'll be making bacon butter. Whenever I make bacon I save the grease. Now that I have enough it will be turned into batches of bacon butter.  I used about 2.75 sticks of butter total. Cut into jars then I let them sit until the butter was close to room temperature.  The bacon fat I have collected (Stored in the refrigerator) was heated in bits over a double boiler until liquified but not too hot.  The melted bacon fat was poured over the butter. You can use a strainer to get rid of and chunky bits and then mixed until well incorporated. The smaller jars have just over 3 oz butter. The bigger jar has 4.3 oz butter.  Here are the finished jars. These will be stored in the fridge and used to cook veggies and sear meats. You could also put herbs in the jar for different flavors. - Kris
