Qthe TikTok gives us as many questionable recipes as genius cooking tips. However, the latest trend surrounding TikTok has divided the app’s users.
Creator @archivedchef brought his recipe to social media last June “pancake omelette”, while letting his followers know that we’ve all been making pancakes the wrong way for a long time.
“Did you know you have to mix them like you do eggs?” he asked his audience of 18.7 million followers. “And it’s easier that way. You don’t have to worry about getting in perfect shape.”
The comments “they burned” with more than 12,000 competing views. Critics called the creation “abominations“and “crime against cooking”while others argue that this technique is “genius and very attractive”.
“I would never turn down pancakes like that,” wrote someone in the comments section. However, another added: “It changed my life.”
“I’m Gen X and never needed therapy until I saw this video”another wrote.
What is an omelet from pancakes or scrambled pancakes
Content creators and food producers are passionately producing what is known as “trembling Pancakes”. What are they doing;
Instead of pouring the pancake mix on a round pan or baking sheet and waiting for it to cook and foam before flipping it, they scramble it in the pan like eggs until it forms into different sizes. on pieces.
They are like mini pancakes – many small pieces placed in a bowl and decorated with the toppings of our choice.
After the online frenzy it caused, the TikToker spoke to Fox News about the inspiration behind his idea.
“I thought it was a fun idea for a video because of all the reactions it got, some positive and some not so positive”he said. “The scrambled pancake concept was so innovative that I knew it would be fun to try and fun for my followers to watch.”
However, the concept of scrambled pancakes is not new – or it’s not from Tik Tok.
The New York Port reports that they have been around since the mid-19th century in Austria and are called Kaiserschmarrn (or “imperial mess”). In fact, it is a traditional dessert that is also enjoyed in Germany.
The delicacy is said to have been created by a farmer who made the recipe for the Austrian Emperor Franz Joseph and his wife when they unexpectedly showed up at his door. He didn’t know what to serve, so he deconstructed the pancake and covered it in sugar and jam and it was – obviously – a big hit.
