SHROVE TUESDAY
Shrove Tuesday is celebrated the day before Ash Wednesday and is therefore the final day before the commencement of Lent, a Christian festival leading up to Easter Sunday (Easter Day). Shrove Tuesday is the last day before the period which Christians call Lent. It is traditional on this day to eat pancakes, so this day is also called PANCAKE DAY.
Why are Pancakes eaten on Shrove Tuesday?
Lent is a time of abstinence, of giving things up. So Shrove Tuesday is the last chance to indulge yourself, and to use up the foods that aren't allowed in Lent. Pancakes are eaten on this day because they contain fat, butter and eggs which were forbidden during Lent.
What is an English Pancake?
A pancake is a thin, flat cake, made of batter and fried in a pan.
Caster sugar (superfine sugar) is sprinkled over the top and a dash of fresh lemon juice added. The pancake is then rolled. Some people add golden syrup or jam.

PANCAKE RECIPE
Ingredients (to makes about 8 pancakes )
For the pancake mixture:
220g/8oz plain flour, sifted
pinch of salt
2 eggs
1 pint of milk
50g/2oz butter
Method for making the batter
1.Sift the flour and salt into a large mixing bowl with a sieve held high above the bowl so the flour gets a airing.
2.Make a well in the centre of the flour and break the eggs into it.
3.Whisk the eggs making sure any bits of flour from around the edge of the bowl are mixed in with the egg.
4.Gradually add small quantities of the milk, still whisking
5.Continue whisking until the batter is smooth, with the consistency of thin cream.
6.Melt the 50g/2oz of butter in a non-stick frying pan.
7.Spoon 2 tbsp of the melted butter into the batter and whisk it in.
8.Let the pancake mix stand for at least 30 minutes before cooking.
9.Pour any left over butter into a dish. This will be used later to grease the frying pan after each pancake has been made.
10.Make sure the non-stick frying pan is really hot before adding about 2 tbsp of the batter mixture.
11.As soon as the batter hits the hot pan, tip the pan around from side to side to get the base evenly coated with batter.
12.Carefully lift the edge of the cooked pancake with a palette knife to see if it's tinged gold as it should be.
13.Flip the pancake over with a pan slice or palette knife to cook the other side
14.Slide it out of the pan onto a plate.
15.Stack the pancakes as you make them between sheets of greaseproof paper on a plate.
