Sweet-toothed adults have also given the tasty treat their seal of approval. They’re a perfect yummy on-the-go snack for a lunchbox, for breakfast, to munch on during a round of golf, to wolf down while watching TV or as a quickie dessert. They are phenomenal on their own stuffed with creamy Nutella and for true yummiliciousness, add a topping. Here are some ideas that are sure to get you drooling. Here goes…
Drizzle with Sugar and Lemon
Dorayakis are simple to make, though shaping them into equal sized discs is the tough part; however, after some practice, it will be a piece of cake. After the pancakes have cooled, open the jar of Nutella and spread a generous amount on one pancake slice, then cover with the other slice and pinch the edges of the discs together.
The finished Dorayakis can be stored in an airtight container for several days before eating – if you can wait that long. You could make them at night ready to eat for breakfast the next morning. Drizzling lemon and sugar over the top is a traditional favourite for pancakes on Shrove Tuesday, the day before Ash Wednesday and the start of Lent’s 40 days of fasting. People made pancakes with the leftovers they wouldn’t be eating over the next 40 days. As an alternative, try fresh orange juice and sugar.Healthy Honey
Dorayaki Nutella is a popular and versatile snack that can be eaten at any time of day – not just breakfast. The sweet flavour goes well with a variety of delicious toppings. For a healthy option, try honey. The health benefits of honey have been known for thousands of years.
Here are some of them:- * As a home remedy for ailments from arthritis to athlete’s foot. Its anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties make it a good natural first aid treatment for cuts and burns.
- * For treating sore throats and easing cold symptoms. Did you know that professional singers often use honey to soothe their throats before a performance?
- * Its antioxidant properties make it an immune system booster to help you stay healthy and fight disease.
- * Honey is an energy booster. Its natural sugars prevent tiredness and provide our bodies with strength and energy.
A Quickie Dessert for the Busy Hostess
Did you know that pancakes are prehistoric? Incredible, but researchers believe that our Stone Age ancestors made a pancake by grinding cattails and ferns into a flour, mixed it with water and baked it on a hot rock. The ancient Greeks cooked flat pancake-like loaves and the Romans record a similar dish to a modern pancake in an early cookbook. In England, the first mention of a pancake in a cookery book goes back to the 15th century. Apart from tasting delicious, pancakes are quick to make.
Dorayaki Nutella is a great dessert idea when you have guests and you don’t have much time to slave over a hot rock. Serve them with lashings of whipped cream and fruit piled on the top. Try sliced strawberries, kiwi, bananas, grated pear, fried apple….the list is endless. Or for a hot dessert, heat up your Dorayaki and heap a mixture of raspberries and blueberries on the top. Heat the fruit (fresh or frozen) in a saucepan with sugar and boil for 5 minutes, then simmer for about 10 until it thickens. Yum!The Nectar of Cartoon Characters
According to Japanese legend, the first Dorayaki was created for an injured samurai who was cared for by an elderly couple who used a gong as a pan. The Japanese word for gong is dora and yaki means cooked on dry heat.Dorayakis have been hugely popular in Japan for centuries, but the pancake sandwich only became trendy in Western culture in the last few decades. This is down to the famous manga cartoon character Doraemon.
Dorayakis are the favourite snack of the blue robotic cat, which made his debut in a Japanese children’s magazine in 1969 and spawned an animated series. However, you don’t have to be a robotic cat to enjoy Dorayaki. Nuts and chocolate are an awesome combination making Dorayaki Nutella a hit with kids the world over. They will love them on their own or with mouth-watering toppings such as ice cream, custard, jam, peanut butter, syrup, bananas or their favourite sauce. Dorayaki Nutella is a great alternative to croissants and crepes. Whatever topping you choose, happy eating…For More Posts Go To Main Blog
