Crepes au Mille Trous (Thin Semolina Crepes)

Recipe by Faiza Cooking

A quick, fool‑proof French‑style thin crepe made with extra‑fine semolina that puffs up with tiny holes – the "mille trous" effect. The batter is cooked on a cold pan and the pan is briefly rinsed with cold water between each crepe for perfect texture.

Critical Success Points

Safety Warnings

  • Handle the hot skillet with a pot holder.
