Pancakes with holes

10 servings

90 minutes

Excellent pancakes with holes are obtained in two cases. The first is if you saturate the dough with soda, acid and, as a result, carbon dioxide (see the recipe with kefir above). The second is if you add fresh yeast to them. We have cooked this recipe many times , and each time the holes turned out outstanding. This particular recipe was given to us by the chef of the Ruski restaurant Alexander Volkov-Medvedev - his interesting story is attached to the recipe.
