When I first put up the recipe for pancakes, I talked about how they were the first thing I ever cooked by myself. What I didn’t mention was how many might have been sacrificed in the flipping process. Some of that was because I was very young and didn’t quite get what to do, and some of that was because I was scared about messing up when I flipped. My mom taught me how to do it and after a few tries I mastered it.

As I cannot be in the kitchen with each of you personally, here is a quick instructional video on how to flip pancakes.

The number one tip, DO NOT BE NERVOUS. The worst that will happen is your pancake doesn’t look great. Who cares? It is really about the taste.
