Crepes: Sweet and Savory

Light and delicate, sweet or savory, crepes are realizing a renaissance and gaining renewed appreciation as an impressive, yet deceptively easy entree or dessert presentation.

 

IN THIS ISSUE, we're joining the crepe revival by delving into the basics of making crepes, then enjoying them folded in a sweet citrusy crepe, a savory seafood crepe, then stacked in a very remarkable Gateau de Crepes. Crepes beg for improvisation and we get you started with some inspirational ideas.
