How to Store Crepe Batter

A crepe is a versatile dish, as it can be sweet or savory. You can enjoy a flavorful chicken and asparagus crepe for dinner, or perhaps one filled with peaches and whipped cream for dessert. Although it seems complicated, it's actually simple to make crepes at home. Just mix up the crepe batter and store it until you're ready to impress your guests.

Difficulty: Easy

Instructions

1. Make the crepe batter in a batter bowl, or use any bowl with a pouring spout. Cover the bowl with a lid or with plastic wrap secured with a rubber band.

2. Store the batter in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before cooking with it. During this time, the flour absorbs the liquid, and air bubbles escape from the batter.

3. Remove the batter from the refrigerator and stir. If the batter is lumpy, whisk it gently until it's smoother. If it seems too thick, add 1 tbsp. water or milk, and whisk carefully for a few moments before cooking.

4. Keep the leftover batter, covered, in the refrigerator for up to four days.
