About a hundred thousand years ago, people celebrated the arrival of spring, the main symbol of which was the hungry bear awakening after hibernation. This holiday was called Komoeditsa (from the other Slavic coma these are bears). In order to appease the starving bear, people baked pancakes and brought them to its den. This is where the saying came from, which we often use in our lives, “The first pancake is lumpy,” that is, a bear.
Later, the ministers of the church renamed the holiday in Maslenitsa. And the first pancake, commemorated the soul of a deceased person.

We spread it on a plate and, if desired, grease the kefir pancakes with butter. They can be stuffed or simply served with honey, condensed milk or jam. Also, kefir pancakes can be used to make pancake pie, it will turn out very tender.

Thin kefir pancakes, openwork and with holes, is another type of these delicious fried products that is worth exploring. We already cooked and they were also holes, there will be some differences in the recipes, but also a lot of similarities. In one of the past recipes I told you how to cook kefir, and now we will cook so that the same kefir helps us make pancakes thin and perforated, like lace. It's all about the test, I’ll tell you and reveal a few secrets.
First of all, the whole thing, of course, is in kefir itself, which, as a product of fermented milk fermentation, emits carbon dioxide, that is, it simply bubbles. And if you add soda to it, then the process will also intensify. By the way, for pancakes you can and even need to use the kefir that has already stood for a couple of days and its shelf life is nearing the end, but has not yet expired. It is all about fermentation, which increases with time. If you have a package of unfinished kefir stagnated in your refrigerator, then make pancakes from it the best and most delicious way to use it.
Still, good kefir without chemical additives is not worth longer than three days, but it is not always possible to drink. Once I had such a case that I brought kefir from the store, which I bought, forgetting to look at the date of manufacture. It was already coming to an end, and even the bag was slightly pouted. Kefir had not yet managed to deteriorate, but was close to that. So I saved the situation with a whole pile of delicious pancakes for the whole family. And then I bought a new kefir.
Let's see how to cook delicious thin pancakes with kefir.
Such pancakes on kefir with boiling water, are also called choux. True, this is not quite the same as choux pastry, for example, for eclairs. Here the whole brewing is that cool boiling water is added, which helps the flour disperse and dissolve all the ingredients. the dough becomes homogeneous, and the pancakes are then thin and strong. They do not tear and do not crumple.
You will need:
Cooking:
1. If you have cooked pancakes before, then probably remember that the easiest way to start is by stirring the eggs and sugar. Beat them quite a bit, just to mix the sugar, salt and eggs until a homogeneous slightly frothy mass.
2. Then pour the kefir into the egg mass and stir a little with a whisk so that they connect well. Kefir is even a little foamed from active stirring, and this is only at hand.
3. Now it's time to gradually add flour. Do this in parts, each of which is stirred. This will result in less lumps, which are sometimes very difficult to grind in the finished test. It is also good if the flour is sifted through a sieve or a special mug.
4. The dough should be homogeneous and thick enough, like cream or sour cream. Why, you ask, if we cook thin pancakes. I’ll remind you that we have pancakes with kefir and boiling water. We have already poured kefir, and boiling water will bring the dough liquid to the desired one.
5. Boil the water in the kettle, pour it into the mug immediately, do not let it cool. Now add baking soda to the water and stir, so it dissolves well. And after that, boiling water with soda can be poured into the dough and immediately begin to mix it quickly. If you do not hesitate, the dough does not curl and does not cook, everything mixes well until a homogeneous consistency. Add vegetable oil at the end and stir until the oil circles on the surface disappear.
6. After that, our dough will be liquid enough to make the pancakes thin and delicate. Soda and kefir will react and begin to produce bubbles. It's time to start baking pancakes.
Preheat the pan, if there is a cast-iron or special pancake pan, spread a thin layer of oil on it. Despite adding butter to the dough, the very first time you need to smear the pan.
Pour pancakes into the pan with the ladle. Tilt it to make the dough thin and evenly distributed.
7. It is not at all difficult to determine when it is time to turn the pancake. Along the edges it starts to blush and lag behind the pan, and the middle becomes dense, and with holes. Pick up a pancake with a spatula or knife and turn it over. It will be golden and openwork. On the second side, you need to cook a pancake a little less in time, literally a minute or two and it's time to take off.
Each finished pancake can be greased with a piece of butter while it is still hot. Such pancakes are very delicate and smell delicious.

Traditionally, pancake dough is kneaded in milk. However, there is more than one recipe for thin with holes pancakes on kefir: with soda or yeast, milk or fermented baked milk, and even boiling water. The main difference between such products is a slightly sour taste (just a little bit!), Which does not spoil the general impression of kefir pancakes.
If the dough turns out to be too liquid, then it is necessary to mix a little flour. If on the contrary - thick, then you need to dilute it with kefir.
Heat a frying pan, coat with sunflower oil or lard. Fry on both sides until browned. Spread hot pancakes with butter or ghee and stuff.
Sweet products are made a little differently.
Pancakes should be very soft and delicate. They wrap any filling, but it is better in a small amount. After all products are more fragilethan their fresh counterparts, therefore, they may burst in the process.
The dough kneading technique for this variety of products is somewhat different from the traditional method.
After that, fry the pancakes. They definitely will not stick to the pan, and the finished products will be really thin, which is important. To make them sweet, you need to add a few tablespoons of granulated sugar to the dough.
To make pancakes delicate and thin, kefir mix is \u200b\u200bdiluted with boiling water. Well, and, of course, they take all the products in the right amount strictly according to the recipe.
Bake pancakes on one side and the other in a hot frying pan greased with lard until browned.
You can cook openwork pancakes on a fermented milk product without eggs.
After the time has passed, we proceed to baking.
Without eggs, you can also knead choux pastry. At the same time, take a spoonful of sugar with top, 0.4 l of fermented milk product, a little less than a glass of boiling water, 1-2 glasses of flour, half a spoonful of soda and 2-3 tablespoons of sunflower oil. You can take butter to coat finished products, but not necessarily.
If you cook products according to this recipe, then they will be darker in comparison with milk pancakes, and taste more tender, and their holes will be larger.
We use the finished dough for its intended purpose - for baking pancakes.
Delicious pancakes in a shallow hole will turn out if milk is added to the dough.
Pancakes are fried on a calcined pan on both sides until golden. They are smeared with butter while still hot or stuffed with jam.
If you want aromatic pancakes, you can knead the dough with fermented baked milk. Then they will turn out even more tender than dairy. And go well with jam, condensed milk and even ice cream!
