Instructions

  1. First, combine the flour, eggs, salt and oil in a large bowl so you have plenty of room to whisk and combine these ingredients well. Then add about a quarter of the milk and mix till smooth.
  2. When it is smooth, add the balance of the milk all at once and mix gently until you have achieved a homogenous batter --NO LUMPS (Sans Grumeaux!).
  3. Then let the batter sit at room temperature for at least half an hour -- Now your batter is ready.
  4. Heat your skillet or, if you are lucky enough to have one, your crepe pan, add oil or butter or a combination of both--just enough to give the pan's surface a sheen, and add just enough batter to make a very thin veil across the pan.
  5. Then, using a spatula, carefully turn your crepe once it begins to brown around the edges and cook it on the other side.
  6. When it is lightly browned on both sides, remove it from the pan and lay it on a warm plate.
  7. Repeat the process, stacking your crepes one on top of the other.
