La Rouge-Gorge
Roll it while it is hot or it cracks. So will you.
How to make it
- Pour wheat batter and spread it thin.
- Cook it golden on both sides, unless the guest asks otherwise (that is how the notebook recommends it).
- Smear the raspberry jam.
- Fold it: Roll. One long swipe across.
Price and cost
It sells for 4,00 €. At the usual helpings it costs about 0,70 € to make (0,40 € of batter and 0,30 € of fillings), before any discount and less for home-grown fillings. Mastery stamps and the market's charm cards raise the price; see mastery.
The notebook page
The page is in the notebook from the very first day.
It belongs to the set Les Classiques, worth 2 pearls once every crêpe in it has been served really well.
Who loves it
How guests ask for it
"The red jam, rolled tight, cooked properly crisp so it survives the cobblestones on Rue Pavée."
— Théo (crisp and brown)
"The red jam one. Rolled, because triangles are for babies. Golden, NOT brown. I will check."
— Capucine
"Alizarin crimson on raw canvas. Keep the canvas pale, please. Then roll it like a poster tube."
— Soline (pale and soft)
"Raspberry jam, rolled like my late husband's newspaper. Golden, not anaemic."
