Pro Tips

– Use a non-stick pan.
– The temperature of the pan is very important
– The pan cannot be super hot when you put the batter and neither it can be too cold.
– Splash some water to cool it down if it’s too hot and ensure the temperature is a bit mild
– When spreading the batter go inside out and avoid re-doing a spot.
–  Even when cooking the crepe, do it on a high medium to low temperature and it will give it a dry and chewy texture.
