I have my mom's cast iron crepe pan which she probably got in 1947 when she married. She just tilted the pan to spread the batter. Our Saturday night supper was crepes sprinkled with cinnamon sugar or spread with jam and rolled. I also love savory crepes - chicken curry or chicken & mushroom. Yum. Wouldn't complain about an ice cream crepe either!

[@nomadmarauder-dw9re]

Lodge round griddle is a crepe pan. Go ahead, diss Lodge as hillbilly crap. It's a crepe pan.

[@cheryl5994]

@@nomadmarauder-dw9re NOBODY IS DISSIN’ ANYTHING, CHILL ✌🏼😊

[@GRANDIPRTradeMarkAcceleartor]

I prefer cast iron pans for my various cooking 🤩

[@mattsinvegas]

Great video as always! One tip: You’re putting too much butter on the pan. Cut it by half and the crepes will be much more uniform and smoother. (I’ve been making crepes for 20 plus years😃)

[@sahej6939]

How do we do the burning orange 🍊 peel?

[@scoop2591]

THX! :)

[@kimberlypatterson3568]

I use a seasoned cast iron tortilla warming skillet. Using a shallow ladle I pool the batter in the middle of the pan then pick up the pan and roll in a circular motion to spread the batter. Works perfectly every time! No special spatula needed, just a wider width. I also butter the pan prior to battering pan and butter the top of each crépe.

[@lapismosi8065]

You could use a bit more practice perhaps🤔

[@shanemorgan-qk5tw]

Awesome prep, crepes are lovely with tangerine or orange and vanilla ice cream on the side.

[@charlottec7158]

Growing up, I always made crepes in a regular frying pan and they came out pretty good that way. But I finally asked my parents for a pro-crepe pan when I turned 21 and they got me the exact same one that you use in this video!! It makes making really good crepes sooooo much easier, I love my crepe pan.

[@tinamarietimney7978]

His Demonstration's make it so easy to follow👍

[@romainsz4663]

Love your cooking videos! But the rozell (the wood stick) is supposed to be used on edge free crêpe machines. On regular pan, and a crepe pan is a regular pan, you should use you wrist so make the batter go to the edge! Love from France!

[@JustAnotherBuckyLover]

I was going to say, that's how I always made crepes, just swirl the batter around, it gets much more even.

[@carolynbeaugrand6789]

John, I'm a new fan of yours. My husband's family is French and we make crepes every New Year's Eve. I used to make Crepes Suzette long time ago and it was always quite a presentation to see the flames. I need to do that again. Never used the orange zest, but I will now! Thank you, Carolyn

[@mysa.relind977]

I love how you realistically cook no fancy techniques no show off just regular cooking like the rest of us Love love love ❤

[@rosanehitchcock6470]

I made your recipe yesterday!!! It’s was just WONDERFUL 🥰 You are the best. Thank you 🙏

[@Kate-te7fm]

It's like you read my mind! My mother requested crepes for Mothers Day this year. This recipe looks delicious, thanks for the excellent timing!

[@aeonflux_504]

Crepes Suzette! i have tried them once and loved them! I'm so happy that you're showing us how to make them, John! I'm ready to take notes.

[@PreppyKitchen]

Thank you!!! I love orange everything so these were a must make for the channel!

[@tsrindahl]

It’s been my Christmas morning tradition for several years to make crepes Suzette and watch Trading Places (which has a scene with crepes Suzette being made) and this year I used your recipe. The crepes were fantastic and it was the best orange sauce I have ever made, thanks!

[@mezmez1899]

Hi John. Just made your crepe recipe minus the “suzette” Grated lemon rind into crepe mix to have with lemon n sugar rolled up with Nutella spread on top. Your an amazing teacher and human being!

[@tinamarietimney7978]

Very comfortable while listening! Told history yet not boring! Learned ✌️👍😉Thank You Tina, from S.E. Ga.

[@adedow1333]

Thanks for the lunch inspiration! I make my crepes in a regular frying pan. I don't have a non-stick, so I make do. Just a little sliver of butter in the corner of the an where I pour the batter and then I swirl the an around to even out the batter into a perfectly even crepe. Yes, this took loads of practice.

[@priyankakaw]

Hi John, i love to watch your recipe. And the way you explain it. Amazing...and I uad made many receipt that turned out fabulous. Thank you 😊

[@mommakittyhiking]

I've been cooking crepes for 29 years and I still have bad crepe days! haha In my early 20's I would host "crepe feeds" where people would bring their favorite filling and I would make hundreds of crepes. The blender in the fridge overnight does make them easier to make the next day. I'm a fan of a ladle and a quick swirl of the pan.

[@JustAnotherBuckyLover]

Oh my god. I wish someone would do that for me. Just an endless supply of fresh crepes that I can just drown in sugar and lemon juice. Yum!

[@Bariom_dome]

I found John's channel during the initial lockdown stage. Loved it ever since

[@wallihaley5194]

Same!

[@CookinwithHilda]

This is one recipe that I really want to master. You make it look super easy! I think everything looks better when you make it!! 😌

Oh this looks and sounds absolutely delicious! Perfect breakfast/lunch/dinner for spring! Thank you for such a great video! *New fan alert* I’m new to your channel and so far I’m impressed with everything I’ve seen!!

[@terry94131]

Another delightful outing! I haven't made crepes in a while, but when I do I use my ancient cast iron pan which holds the heat quite well.

[@editpatino114]

I can totally relate to your mom. I am Mexican too and try cooking something new every week. Sometimes it works sometimes it's a fail but I love it.

[@davemcbroom695]

This was a classic French culinary recipe, and you nailed it.

[@shelbymatthews5538]

Your videos bring me so much joy. You are so wholesome. Downside is that they make me hungry!!!!!!

[@phoenix2.020]

Yum. That looks great John! I remember having crepes and ice cream when I once went to Canada. These look amazing. Have to try them! 😋😋😊

Hope you enjoy! They are an amazing treat 💖

[@berniecelee5062]

Yummmm 😋😋😋 You had me at make ahead !! Always looking for something I could start it the day before to shorten my time. Definitely going to make on the long weekend. Thanks 🙏🏻 thanks 🙏🏻

[@anitangugi]

Whether its pancakes or crepes, I found swirling the pan in a circular motion is such a great hack to get even layers.😊

[@strawberry1025]

Thank you as always John for giving measurements in metric. My Irish brain cannot compute cups. 😊

[@wholeNwon]

My mother used to make them for us as a special treat and always used a large frying pan (seasoned carbon steel) but she used less butter. I made them the same way until I was given an electric French crepe griddle and that has its advantages, esp. in temp. regulation. Mom rolled her crepes. I fold them in half, place them in the sauce and then fold again to complete the process to collect more sauce inside. Our table server used to do both folds in the sauce, used less zest and less sugar...actually just rubbed sugar cubes on the oranges.

[@richardallen3810]

Absolutely incredible. I’ve made blintzes before using my crepe pan and the spreader. This recipe looks wonderful and I must give it a try.

[@wallihaley5194]

Yeah, blintzes!!

LOVE this Video... it brings a tear to my eye... I am also an Actress, and the first line I ever said in my 6th grade play was, "We must make Crepes Suzette"... (not knowing what they are... haha) I came on line today because as you mentioned (dinner party) ... I am in the midst of moving back to Albuquerque, New Mexico (US) to RE-Open my Acting Studio (I am supposed to be RETIRED.... Ba-hum-bug... I'm only 68 I'm not dead... and I miss teaching ACTING Students) This time, I will be incorporating teaching Acting for Mystery Dinner Theatre, so the students can seriously experience REAL LIVE Acting... I guess I will be the one to LIGHT the Crepes Suzettes at the table.. (my insurance just went up)!!! LOL Thank YOU so much for such an enjoyable video... as always ... You are the master... "Bravo Darling... Bravo"

If I am cooking watching your videos then I don't have any doubts I mean even if the ingredients is something I don't know and have no idea how it tastes I still doesn't mind it and would be like "it's John's recipe so..... It will work out anyway, why bother looking it up" 😅😅

I love crepes, many years ago when I was a student, I worked in a french cafe and made gazillions of crepes, for me your batter needed to be a touch looser. Great video as always though, now you've got me craving crepes xx

[@Ravenna17]

Hey John, I have 2 requests: 1. Do you think you can record some videos on decorating cakes? I’m still in the process of learning how to pipe buttercream designs, like borders and flowers, and chocolate ganache. I struggle with the correct techniques and the consistency of the buttercream or whipped cream. 2. Do you know about other types of buttercream frosting? Like German, Korean, Ermine, and Russian? These are lesser known so I thought you would be interested if you didn’t know about them and maybe want to give your opinions on them and possible recipes. Love the content, and I love you 😘

[@bwowzah]

Another very nice video!

[@A5M5-hm9lk]

Love your channel John! Thank you! Curious… why no swirling of the batter in the pan?

[@Vibha0710]

I love crepes. One tip…to avoid butter to burn, use ghee instead which is in fact burnt butter itself

[@traceykent8864]

I don’t have one of those wood sticks but I use a normal frying pan and just tilt it 360 degrees so any excess batter runs to the edge and it is round in shape. As long as you don’t put too much batter in it will be nice and thin if you do this quickly after putting the batter in the hot pan. Also adding fresh peeled slices of orange a few minutes before the sauce finishes cooking makes it a little bit nicer.

[@juliebaker6969]

I know how hard it is to get the temperature right for low temp cooking on a gas stove. No matter HOW far down you turn the flame, it still boils, or burns what's in the pan. I found a simmer plate online that goes between the pan and the burner, that lowers the temperature enough to simmer properly, and reduce or dry out foods without burning them. It works great, and is especially good for simmering soups, stews, bone broth etc, and for making reductions.

[@alicekhotin4835]

Hello. The crapes ( “blini”) is traditional in russian, ukranian , belorussian kitchen, but with cottage cheese, sour cream or jam.

[@aminarochdi4055]

If you use a non-stick pan you dont have to brush it with butter each time. And it overall gives you better looking crepes. Also remove the pan from the heat, pour your crepe mixture into the pan and swirl the pan until it covers all the surface. Giving you nice and uniform crepes.

[@wholeNwon]

That's how my Mother used to do it. I do, too, when I don't feel like bothering with the electric crepe griddle.

[@aminarochdi4055]

@@wholeNwon that's the way it's supposed to be done! The bubbling butter kind of stops the batter from spreading out by cooking the edges way too soon. But i get that they'll taste delightful is cooked in butter

[@wholeNwon]

@@aminarochdi4055 I didn't think about the mechanism but that makes sense. Done as you and I do it, the crepes are also beautifully thin. In fact, I place a premium on the thin structure and often sacrifice shape, but, as John says, once they're folded, it really makes little difference.
