childhood taste memory


Last week, Val and I were doing our usual mall walk. As we were passing by an open kitchen she decided to indulged her sweet tooth with a peach crepe. 
I love crepe, more of the savoury crepe not so much of dessert crepe. Val ordered a peach crepe and she let me tried. The taste was very familiar. My mom used to made us for breakfast! I was surprised to discover my mom was feeding us the same thing 2 decades ago... she probably didn't know the it has a fancy French name called crêpe. We don't have maple syrup back then. Mom topped it with condensed milk...mmm...mmm... it has been a long times. I would still eat it with condensed milk today. It smells and taste divine. 
I will never spent RM24 for a piece of crepe. It is very easy to make, no fancy tools, all you need is a pan, some flours, milk, butter and an egg. And you can top with anything you like, whip cream, fruits of your choice, syrup or condensed milk. 
This weekend I whipped up a gluten free peach crepe for BB. This is the very first time he tried crepe. He told me, "Mama, 你真棒!"
Happiness x2!
