As the senior managing director of life sciences at Hercules Capital, Inc., Bryan Jadot manages a team of dynamic professionals. Outside of the office, Bryan Jadot enjoys making breakfast for his family, and one of his go-to dishes is crepes.
The perfect crepe is a thin, airy, yet lightly crisp, pancake. Here are three tips for making perfect crepes every time:
1. Refrigerate the batter for an hour or more. Refrigeration helps relax the gluten and makes crepes light and airy.
2. Ensure even heating. Turn on the heat five or six minutes before pouring batter into the pan. Preheating the pan will help make the crepes perfectly uniform and evenly cooked.
3. Experiment with fillings. While a sweet filling like fruit is ideal for breakfast, a savory filling like sausage or seafood can turn the breakfast item into an easy and delicious lunch or dinner.
