Sourdough Starter Pancakes: A Culinary Fusion of Tradition and Taste
Pancakes with sourdough starter are a unique and flavorful variation of the classic breakfast staple. Instead of using commercial baking powder or baking soda as leavening agents, these pancakes rely on the natural fermentation process of a sourdough starter, resulting in a tangy, slightly sour flavor and a light, airy texture. One notable example is the Dutch pannenkoeken, a thin, crepe-like pancake made with sourdough starter, which has been enjoyed in the Netherlands for centuries.
