KatmiLacy fermented pancakes
Katmi come from Thrace in southern Bulgaria, where they were once baked on a domed iron pan over the fire and served at fairs and family breakfasts. The batter is lightly fermented with yeast, so the thin pancakes come out full of holes and lacy, crisp at the edge and soft in the middle. They are folded and eaten with honey, jam or crumbled sirene. The common mistake is pouring batter into a pan that isn't hot enough, which gives pale, rubbery pancakes with no lace. Chef's tip: let the batter rest until bubbly, and pour it in a thin spiral from the centre outwards rather than swirling, for proper lacy edges.
