Traditionally cooked in the BRETON way, on a cast iron griddle.
Galettes and Crepes are the French words for "Pancakes," which are often associated with a light snack or Shrove Tuesday celebrations. In fact, the Galette and the Crepe are two quite different recipes from Brittany. Together they make, not a snack, but a wholly satisfying two or three course meal that has now become a great culinary treat.
Galettes
Made with a batter containing ONLY buckwheat flour, sea salt and water. This batter is mixed vigourously like bread dough. The buckwheat gives a highly nutritious, gluten free flour which makes a tasy wheaty Galette, ideal for Galette Savoury Fillings.
Crepes
Made with wheat flour, milk, eggs, sugar and fat. The result is a batter which is very similar to that of the traditional English pancake and is served with Crepe Sweet Fillings.
