NOTES:

* A make-it-yourself mix for buttermilk pancakes —
This recipe comes from the “More Make-a-mix Cookery”
cookbook put out by HP Books. The premise of this
book and its predecessor, Make-a-mix Cookery is that
you can save time and money by making your own mixes
for every stage of dinner planning. It seems to work.
Yield: 10 cups of mix of mix.

* Use the mix within 6 months of when you make it.

* The pancakes made from this mix aren’t as sweet as
those made from Aunt Jemima mix, but they are good.
You can always add sugar, of course.

* Although we haven’t tried this (yet), you could
probably vary the recipe by using a different type of
flour to make, for example, your own buckwheat
pancakes.

* If you can’t find buttermilk powder in your local
grocery store, try a bulk food store.

: Difficulty: easy.
: Time: 5 minutes to make the mix if you have the
ingredients. : Precision: measure the ingredients.

NOTES: The first time I made this next one, I thought I might get some flak
from my teenaged boys. I was very surprised to get their thumbs up. All you
really need to complete the meal is some good french bread. Throw in a wedge
of ripened brie, and it is a meal fit for company. Pour everyone a glass of
good red wine and c’est magnifique!
