Ova spongia ex lacte
(Pancakes with Milk)

Origin: Roman      Period: Traditional

Original Recipe

Ova spongia ex lacte (from Apicius' De Re Coquinaria)

Ova spongia ex lacte: ova quattuor, lactis heminam, olei unciam in se dissolvis, ita ut unum corpus facias. in patellam subtilem adicies olei modicum, facies ut bulliat, et adicies impensam quam parasti. una parte cum fuerit coctum, in disco vertes, melle perfundis, piper adspargis et inferes.

Translation

Four eggs in half a pint of milk and an ounce of oil well beaten, to make a fluffy mixture; in a pan put a little oil, and carefully add the egg preparation, without letting it boil however. Place it in the oven to let it rise and when one side is done, turn it out into a service platter fold it pour over honey, sprinkle with pepper and serve.

A great recipe for those on a gluten free died as these pancakes require no flour as they're essentially sweet omelettes.

Ingredients

600ml milk
8 eggs
100ml olive oil (grapeseed would provide a better flavour, however)
Honey
Freshly-ground black pepper


Method:

Form the pancake mix by beating together the eggs, milk and oil into a smooth paste. Heat a pan, add a knob of butter and pour in enough of the mix until you can cover the entire base of the pan. Fry for about 20s on each side and serve drizzled with honey and a twist of black pepper.
