Wholemeal eggless crepes. The easiest way for deliscious and healthy crepes

Wholemeal eggless crepes with home-made strawberry jam
Traditionaly we make crepes with white flour, eggs and milk. But there is easier and more healthy way to cook crepes: without eggs and with more nutrients. And it's still really yummy ! Don't think that healthy food is not tasty and tasty food is always unhealthy!

Ingredients:

Wholemeal flor, potato starch, milk, sugar if needed, oil to fry

Extra: jam, butter, honey, sugar, fruits, nuts....






Directions:
  • In a bowl mix the flour and starch (use 60% of flour and 40% of starch) add sugar if you like more sweet.
  • Gradually add milk. Mix proper until smooth
  • Fry on a hot frying pan as simple crepes. 
  • Keep hot. Serve with jam, fruits, honey or with whatever you like 
 Crepes are more dark because of flour and starch keeps the shape replacing the eggs.

Marigold- Swiss vegetable bouillon powder


Finely, something about the food. I like cooking very mutch, so I am looking and I am trying all the time  the different brands and  components for the cuisine. Healthy food is very important for the body and mind. The more it's fresh and natural the more prana is inside and the more we are strong.

Few days ago I found a great replacement for the typical bouillon powder for my cuisine- Swiss vegetable bouillon. I tasted it and I can tell, yes there is the difference!  It’s more gentle,  less salty and there is no typical umami taste that comes from gluten.
Marigold Health Foods is the British company that distributes vegetarian foods : bouillon, braised tofu, bouillon miso*.

What ccomponents are in this bouillon? There are:  
  • sea salt, 
  • hydrolised vegetable protein, 
  • potato starch, 
  • palm oil, 
  • vegetables 8 % (celery, onions, carrots, leeks) ,
  •  lactose, 
  • spices (turmeric, white pepper, garlic, mace, nutmeg),
  •  parsley,
  •  lovage.    
  Not bad , I think.

The standard bouillon powder contains simple salt, only 4,3 % of vegetables (onion, carrot and parsley) and of course  there is yeast and gluten (the taste of which can be addictive).

How to use it? As you like, for the soup, souse, vegetable or just as a hot drink.
There is one disadvanatages- it's more expensive than simple bouillon. We can by it in different online shopps with ecological foods, in Poland in "Alma", in France in the "comptoire Irlandais" and in the other eco-shops.

So wish you a nice day and deliscious and healthy meals!

Bon appétit!
