the first pancake
when you make pancakes, the first pancake is always a tricky one — you’re not really sure how hot the griddle is, the look and timing of when to flip is a little hazy, and it always turns out a little over- or under-done.
not today. today i made the perfect first pancake.

Oh, preheating the pan is also good. And you don't have to turn it over when the first bubble bursts. I normally wait until between half and all of them are gone.

The technique that I learned working as a part-time cook back in college is to watch the bubbles that form on the pancake - first they'll form and then when they begin to burst, it's time to flip the pancake.
