-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1 1/2 cups fine semolina -- (8 1/2 oz)
1/4 cup all-purpose flour -- (1 oz)
1 teaspoon active dry yeast
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
4 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
melted butter -- for serving
honey -- for serving
Unlike French crepes, these chewy, yeasted crepes are cooked only on
one side until bubbles set on the surface, giving them the mottled
appearance from which they take their name. Chef Kamel Saci serves
these crepes spread out on a platter with bowls of warm butter and
honey for drizzling.
Makes 10 crepes
Active: 50 min
Total: 3 hr
In a blender, combine the semolina with the flour, yeast, salt, and 1
3/4C warm water and blend on the lowest speed for 6 min (the longest
blending time allows the semolina to become finely ground so it
thickens the crepe batter). Add the baking powder and continue
blending for 4 min more. Pour the crepe batter into a med bowl, cover
with a kitchen towel,and let stand at room temp until foamy, about 2 hrs.
Heat the oven to 180F and line a baking sheet with a towel. Heat an
8" nonstick skillet over med for 2 min. Whisk the crepe batter to
ensure it is well mixed and pour 1/3C of the batter into the skillet.
Cook the crepe, undisturbed, until holes set on the surface and the
crepe has no more wet spots, 3-4 min. Transfer the crepe to a baking
sheet and keep warm in the oven while you cook more crepes with the
remaining batter. When ready to serve, arrange the crepes on a
serving platter and serve hot, drizzled with melted butter and warmed honey.
