Buckwheat crepe recipe

While my Breton grandmother from Finistère made us eat savory pancakes in wheat pancakes… My husband far prefers buckwheat pancakes made with delicious buckwheat flour. And yes, at her place, we didn’t eat it, it was reserved for the poor. It is true that she lived on a dirt floor and that she started working at the age of 14, if that is what you call being rich …

Buckwheat flour, this flour so dear to our hearts that allows me to make my grandmother’s recipes such as kig ha farz, for example.

Today as we are approaching the hour of candlelight, by the way, the day of my daughter’s birth. And yes, even in these hours my love for food resurfaces … Today I am sharing with you a recipe for a savory buckwheat pancake.
