  • The recipe for these pancakes is very easy to pull off. In old Russia, pancakes like these were made with soured milk (prostokvasha). Kefir pancakes come out thin and lacy. Mix room-temperature kefir with the granulated sugar, eggs, and salt. In a separate bowl, sift together the flour and starch. Then add the flour mixture to the kefir mixture in batches, stirring until you have a smooth, lump-free batter. At the end, add the baking soda dissolved in a splash of boiling water. Finally, stir a little vegetable oil into the batter — it helps the pancakes release easily from the pan and lets you skip greasing it between pancakes. The batter should be thin enough to make delicate pancakes; if it's too thick, loosen it with a bit more kefir. Cook the pancakes in a hot pan on both sides until golden brown. Serve them folded into quarters or rolled into tubes. Kefir pancakes are my kids' favorite treat!
