-Did you know that the difference between textured pancakes and perfectly browned pancakes is the fat?
-パンケーキにまだら模様ができるか、きれいに焼き色がつくかの違いは油だ、ご存知でしたか？
If you heat the pan with a little oil -- I've got 1 teaspoon here -- you'll see that even as you push it around, that fat -- it tends to bead up.
フライパンを少しの油で熱すると、ここには小さじ1使っていますが、動かしても油がつぶになって弾くのがわかるはずです。
Let's get some batter in there and see what happens.
生地を入れてみましょう。
These spots right here, they were where the oil was.
ここに見えるまだら模様は、油があった場所です。
And this happens because oil conducts heat more slowly than the metal surface of the pan.
これは、油がフライパンの金属面より熱を伝えるのが遅いために起こります。
If you were to just eat that portion right there, you'd find that it's softer and less flavorful.
この部分だけを食べると、やわらかくて味が薄いと感じるでしょう。
But honestly, this issue is mostly cosmetic.
とはいえ、この問題は見た目が気になる程度です。
Still, if you want picture-perfect pancakes, here's what you need to do.
それでも、見た目も完璧なパンケーキが作りたければ、こうしてください。
You want to wipe out the pan really well so that you can't see the oil anymore.
油が見えなくなるまで、フライパンをしっかり拭き取ってください。
There's still enough left behind to help with release, but the film is really thin and even, so you won't get the spotting.
離しやすくするための油はまだ残っていますが、膜がとても薄く均一なので、まだら模様はできません。
Look at how uniform that is.
どれだけ均一か見てください。
It's like something you'd see on a box of pancake mix or a cooking show.
パンケーキミックスの箱や料理番組で見るような仕上がりです。
Now, on the other hand, if you're looking for pancakes with texture, you're going to want to use a generous amount of butter -- about 1/2 a tablespoon for a 12-inch skillet.
一方、食感のあるパンケーキが欲しいなら、バターをたっぷり使いたいところです。12インチのフライパンなら大さじ1/2ほど。
I want to let this melt and spread it out.
溶かして広げます。
[ Sizzling ] And while it's bubbling and sizzling, I want to add the batter.
[ ジューという音 ] 泡立ってジュージューしているうちに、生地を入れます。
This pancake -- It's gently frying in that butter.
このパンケーキはバターの中でゆっくりと揚げられています。
And what we get is gorgeous browning, this beautiful nutty flavor from the butter.
こうすると、美しい焼き色と、バター由来の香ばしい風味が得られます。
And its edges?
そして、縁は？
They're going to be a little crispy too.
少しカリカリになります。
Next time you make pancakes, remember, for something tender and delicate, use as little oil as possible.
次にパンケーキを作るときは、しっとりと繊細な仕上がりにしたいなら、できるだけ油は少なく。
And if you're after something well-browned and a little crispy, butter that pan generously.
しっかり焼き色がついて少しカリカリにしたいなら、バターをたっぷり塗って。
The choice is yours.
選択はあなた次第です。
