Thin Lacy Crepes Made with Boiling Water

These gorgeous crepes won't leave anyone indifferent! I decided to surprise my guests (we have company often, so I get creative just as often) with lacy crepes. I made the first one as a test — figuring if it flopped, I'd just fry up regular ones. But it turned out absolutely beautiful! Pretty, delicious crepes that mesmerize you with their look. I'll be making them again, and I recommend you do too!

  • So, let's get down to some culinary artistry:
    • crack the eggs into a bowl, add the sugar and salt, and whisk together;
    • pour in the vegetable oil and milk, and stir;
    • pour the water into a saucepan, bring it to a boil, then pour it into the bowl while stirring the batter constantly;
    • sift in the flour and blend the batter with a blender (you can use a whisk, but it takes longer);
    • transfer the batter to a piping bag fitted with the finest tip;
    • heat a skillet (ideally a nonstick one) and pipe out the batter into whatever design your heart desires, like an artist on a canvas!;
    • carefully flip the crepe with a wide spatula and cook the other side.
  • And look at this beauty — so tasty and so festive!
