  8. Step 8:

    Step 8.

    And only now, sift Soda over the dough. Carefully but quickly mix it into the dough. / Bubbles immediately begin to appear - this kefir extinguishes soda, the dough becomes airy, porous, light./ If additives are introduced / raisins, vanilla .../, then do it now.

    Step 11.

    Pour 3 tablespoons of vegetable oil into a well-warmed frying pan and warm it up, reduce the heat to moderate - medium.

Here are some secrets:

* FLUFFY pancakes are obtained only from thick dough!
* Kefir is better to take sour / 3-day /.
* Take eggs and dairy products at room temperature.
* The dough must be infused to be saturated with oxygen and become lighter.
* You don't need to add a lot of sugar to the dough, otherwise the bottom will start to burn, and the middle will remain raw.
* Knead the dough in one direction - it will turn out smoother and glossy.
* To make the pancakes round, you need to lower the dough from the sharp edge of the spoon, and the oval - from the side of the spoon.
* Do not introduce a lot of additives so that the dough can rise.
* The bottom of the pan should be thick.
* Fry only in preheated oil, on medium or moderate-medium heat, so that the bottom is not too fried, and the middle has time to bake.
* Pour oil so that the entire bottom is covered.
The golden mean is important here :
if there is not enough oil, the pancakes will be dry and they will not have enough strength to rise,
if a lot - pancakes will be greasy.
* Portions of dough - no more than a tablespoon, otherwise it will be difficult to fry.
* Flour must be sifted.
* Introduce flour in small portions, for better mixing and to stop in time and not to shift it.
* Always pour a lot of flour, its ratio to kefir is almost 1:1

And then you will succeed!

Be prepared for the fact that you may need more or less flour than indicated in the recipe. Focus not on the amount of flour, but on the desired consistency of the dough. To avoid mistakes, read about flour and its properties!

Use oil with a high smoking temperature for frying! Any oils are useful only until a certain temperature is reached - the point of smoking, at which the oil begins to burn and toxic substances, including carcinogens, are formed in it.
Unrefined oils, with rare exceptions, have a low smoking point. There are a lot of unfiltered organic particles in them, which quickly begin to burn.
Refined oils are more resistant to heating, and their smoking point is higher. If you are going to cook food in the oven, on a frying pan or grill, make sure that you use oil with a high smoking point. The most common of the oils with a high smoking point: refined varieties of sunflower, olive and grape.
