Why do your crepes have brown spots? Is this an "amerifat improvement?" I don't get it.

Probably because there is a hot fat in the pan when he makes them

I've always found Julia Child's recipe to be pretty serviceable.

I usually add a teaspoon or two of vanilla just to brighten up the flavour a bit.

Some awesome fillings are a wild mushroom duxelles and emmental. Or cajun chicken, salsa and guacamole.

I know what you mean by eggy. For me the issue was always that I didn't mix the flour in slowly enough. You have to avoid clumps of flour as you bring up the consistency.

It's a crêpe.

I found my crepes were eggy and I couldn't figure out why. Eventually, I found that adding water fixed my problem. The crepes came out thinner as well, which is a bonus.

Crepes are the thing I love the most and I think I got them to an almost perfect level.

However the secret is mix 2-3 eggs in a big bowl with a tea spoon of salt and a table spoon of oil.

Then I usually add around 750ml of milk then start stirring. Keep adding a spoon of flour while stirring until you have a creamy but still runny consistency. Literally thats it. I don't know how to describe it, but if you pour some in the pan, it should BARELY fill out 90% of the pan.
Put a few drops of oil every time before putting in the batter. Low-medium heat only for the stove.
When the top part is no longer liquid (visibly getting harder) then its time to flip it. Normally it should be something like 45 seconds first then filp for another 30 seconds.

I've made crepes approx 1000 times in my life.

>trying to make a dish that isn't even french
Crepes were invented thousands of years ago by the Celts, a proud and fiercely independent non-French race of people

The recipe was later culturally appropriated by surrender monkeys
