It's the chandeleur once again ! How do you eat your pancakes ? With syrup on it ? Or you just have a bit in a bowl on the side for each bite ?

Anyway, syrup or nor, Geraldine and Mona sure love their pancakes !

Bonne chandeleur !!!

Probably Léon's favourite celebration ^^

I don't know if it's a famous feast outside France, but every 2 february, we celebrate the end of winter with a special recipe ! It's also a christian festivity (but to be honest, in my family, it's mostly the occasion to make and eat a ton of crêpes !!! XD). It takes its name from the word "chandelle" when the church decided to appropriate this roman/pagan feast. It's a candle that you were supposed to light in all of your house during the cooking and the night.

There is also a tradition to flip the crêpe in the pan with your right hand, while taking a gold coin in the other hand. If it flip right, it's a sign of good luck for the all year ! But I personnally never succeed to flip a crêpe sooo... Bad luck for me I guess ?... X)

Anyway, I'm just happy to eat all the food I want for the weekend X) What's your favourite flavour ? Mine is the crêpe Suzette ^^

The Feast of Candlemas

Today, we are celebrating the end of the Festive Season with The Feast of Candlemas, a revelry of light in the middle of Winter. In France, where we call it Chandeleur, we flip crêpes --both savoury and sweet-- for the occasion, firmly holding a coin in one hand whilst thrusting the thin pancake in the air and catching it on its other side in the pan (it supposedly brings luck!) The merriment starts right there in the kitchen and continues in the plates as one can fill one's galettes and crêpes with anything one's heart wishes! Here are a few of my favourite, to serve with chilled Cider!

Galettes

Spinach and Muenster Galette

Breakfast Crepe

Spinach and Smoked Salmon Crepes with Horseradish Cream

Scallop and Carrot-Stuffed Buckwheat Crepes

TRADITION | Chandeleur : entre coutumes et croyances ➽ http://bit.ly/Chandeleur-Fete La fête de la Chandeleur, qui aujourd’hui n’est plus chômée en France, a pour objet de rappeler la présentation, au Temple, de l’enfant Jésus né quarante jours plus tôt la nuit de Noël, et la purification de la Sainte-Vierge. Son nom lui vient des cierges bénits qu’on y portait en procession à l’église

Chandeleur Ole Buddy IPA on tap at the brewery location at the Gulfport, MS airport. A 3 of 4. A solid hazy IPA with nice juicy citrus and tropical fruit notes to it in the nose, and a medium body. You're not going to be able to pick this out of a lineup with other solid hazy IPAs, but it's solid.

It's Chandeleur again ! Which side are you in ? Pancakes or Waffles ?

Because, as you maybe know, Mona is Team Pancakes, no doubt on that. Chloe, on the other side, is Team Waffles ! And a good one on that. Similarly to Mona, she sure can make really great waffles. On the other hand, they can't decide which is better. They're desserts rivals in some way ! Now, who'll taste this to know which one is better is still to decide. Geraldine and Camille should be good candidates, but they're not ready for this much culinary delicacy.

Bonne chandeleur à tous !

Fat tuesday, shrove tuesday, chandeleur; eating crepes and pancakes today is said to ensure a year free of financial worry. It won’t make you rich but you won’t miss anything.
