Happy Pancake Day! The Tuesday in the seventh week before Easter, pancake day (or Shrove Tuesday) is the day before Lent - traditionally a 40 day fast. Pancakes found their way into Shrove Tuesday as they were a useful way to use up food before the fast...
Now that we've got the facts out the way, let's focus on the pancakes. The classic ingrediants for pancakes are: 100g plain flour - A pinch of salt - 1 large egg - 300ml milk - a topping of your choice.
I decided to do a bit of pancake based musical "research". Coming in at roughly 20 minutes (enough time to whip up a batch of tasty circular treats), I present to you: Pancakes for your sound system. Ska, hip hop, reggae, dub and a well known party jam. I went for banana as my topping, feel free to add your musical toppings in the comments below.
