Various countries have different method of preparing pancake, Interestingly, in Britain they celebrate pancake day each year. do you know the history behind the pancake fixed day? it is usually celebrated the tuesday before ash-wednesday, this is the day were by christians clear up all the fatty things they have in their fridge in preparation for the lenten season which starts the next day. Next year the 17th of February 2015 would be the next pancake day :).
