Pancakes and Waffles: Cook's Illustrated Is The Answer
As mentioned previously, we eat a lot of pancakes and waffles. However, the mixes we have tried just weren't doing it for us. So, I finally dragged out my stack of Cook's Illustrated magazines and found recipes for both buttermilk pancakes and waffles. In the past, my attempts at homemade pancakes have sucked. The reason appears to be that making good buttermilk pancakes isn't easy. Apparently, they cooked over a thousand pancakes to come up with the right recipe. And it is indeed the right recipe. I'm quite pleased (and will be happy to make a copy for anyone who cares).
