Mille Crepe

Mille crepe is a french pastry.. Mille is a french word and it means "Thousand".. It's name "Mille" because many layer of crepes~!I just saw this food an anime call "Yumeiro Patissiere"..Of course it is an anime but still..It makes me hungry to see those sweet stuff they made! :D

RECIPE :: 

(according to official "yumeiro patissiere" book that I got from Nikki blog and that is Cookie Dough.. Thanx 4 all ur help! :D)

Please don't declare this recipe is ur own made recipe..Please respect people who give this recipe n share their technic to help us.! do respect them!

Ingredients :

• All purpose flour - 225g
• Granulated sugar- 10g
• Eggs - 3 eggs/(150g)
• Milk - 510 ml/cc
• Butter - 30g
• Salt - 1g
• Vanilla essence -a little

• 2/3 Whipped Cream (click to know the recipe)

Directions :

1. Sift the flower and then mix it with the granulated sugar and salt in a bowl.
2. In another bowl,mix milk and egg together..Mix slowly..Then,slowly put the mixture (a little at one time) from step 1.
3. Mix the melted butter and vanilla essence in and then strain the mixture to rid of any lumps.
4. Spread a little butter (not include ingredient list) into the round frying pan. Ladle a small round circle of batter on to the pan while tilting it around in order to spread the batter evenly. Cook on low medium heat.If the surface of crepe is dry,this is the time to flip the crepe..Careful not to burn it!(Make many layer as possible)
5. Mix the custard creme and whipped cream together until it has a smooth melt-in-your-mouth texture.
6. Spread the cream thinly over the layer.This forms first layer..Repeat the layer to make all the cake.

Yeah..Burn a little.. 

Before eat

I add some strawberry to  not make the crepe
taste sweet... DX

Tips doing mille crepe:
-Don't afraid to flip them! (or not the crepe will create a hole! O_o)
-Make supper thin..It will become cake if make thick
-Prepare the all the ingredient 2 days before make it.
-It's better to store the batter overnite so the crepe will be easier to cut!


Variations of crepes:
-For me,I add some strawberry to prevent the mille crepe to sweet!
(Got idea from nikki blog! Thanx Nikki!)
- The top crêpe has been seen to be used as a decoration by a few that I found.  Some suggest making it extra large just to cover the edges of the other crepes while one even cut it in to slices and used it to decorate it by layering one slice over the other.

- Many of the shops I found seem to experiment with various crepe thickness and color while the finer ones all seemed to have variations emphasizing the thinness of each individual crepe.

- The crepe itself can be flavored with quite a few shops choosing chocolate crepes and a couple even doing green tea flavoring for their crepes which gave an interesting color.

- Thinly sliced fruit can be placed between each crepe with some shops choosing different fruits for every few layers!  I will definitely be experimenting with this!

- Many people brulee the top crepe which works great if you don't mind the risk and have a torch handy.

- If you have a press-toaster, you can "iron" each crepe to give it a very different texture.

- Using tbsp of sugar per an egg, you can use whites to make a merang instead of the whipping cream.
