CLASSIC FRENCH CREPES BEURRE-SUCRE (BUTTER AND SUGAR)
This is the classic French dessert or snack crepe. Sure, you can fill dessert crepes with all sorts of jams and mousses, but, simple as this is, it's simply delicious. You can get these at crepe stands on Paris street corners. (Preparation time I've listed does not include cooking the crepes).

Steps:
- Amounts can be adjusted according to personal taste and the size of your crepes.
- Cut the butter into little pieces.
- Put 1-2 little pieces of butter into a skillet and put the crepe on top of them.
- Scatter the rest of the little pieces of butter over the top of the crepe.
- Let them melt a little.
- Sprinkle the sugar over the melty butter.
- After a few seconds, the sugar will be starting to melt into the butter a little bit but will still be somewhat granular.
- Fold the left third of the crepe over the middle, then fold the right third over that, and let the folded crepe heat in the pan for a few more seconds.
- Remove the crepe from the pan and eat it hot-- the sugar should be mostly melted into the butter, with a hint of pleasantly grainy sugariness at moments.

Steps:
- In a big bowl, mix the flour, salt, and 1 3/4 cups milk, in that order. Whisk vigorously by hand until it is the consistency of heavy cream. Break eggs and fold them in with a whisk. Add the remaining 1 3/4 cups of the milk to the melted butter and pour into the mixture. Continue mixing the batter until it becomes shiny and smooth. Finally sieve the batter to get rid of any lumps. Leave to rest for 2 to 3 hours.
- Dip a piece of kitchen paper in vegetable oil and grease a small frying pan. Ladle a spoonful of batter into the pan. With a flick of the wrist swivel the pan in order to get a nice even covering all over. A good crepe should be paper- thin. Cook on a high heat and flip it over when you see the edge turning golden brown. Remove crepes from pan and keep aside in a warm place.
- Fold the crepes in 4 and put them into a deep frying pan. Spoon in enough orange butter to barely cover them and, on a high heat, reduce the liquid, turning the crepes over to make sure that they absorb the orange butter.
- To serve, place the crepes on a dessert plate. Spoon the orange butter over them and garnish with a sprinkling of the zest.
- Melt the butter in a big saucepan on a high heat. Add the sugar and cook for about 10 minutes until it caramelizes. It should be a golden color.
- Combine the lemon with the orange juice and pour it in when the caramel is bubbling. Be careful not to burn the butter or yourself. Add Grand Marnier and continue whisking as the mixture curdles a little and let it cook for 10 minutes to reduce. Finally mix with an electric hand-mixer to ensure that the butter is fully integrated.
- Peel the zest from the oranges and cut it very thinly. Blanch in boiling water 3 times and drain it to remove the bitterness. Put the zests in a saucepan with the syrup. Simmer over low heat for 20 minutes.

CREPES FINES SUCREES
Steps:
- Place the ingredients in the blender jar in the order in which they are listed. Cover and blend at top speed for 1 minute. If bits of flour adhere to sides of jar, dislodge with a rubber scraper and blend 3 seconds more. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hour or overnight.
- Brush the skillet lightly with oil. Set over moderately high heat until the pan is just beginning to smoke.
- Immediately remove from heat and, holding handle of pan in your right hand, pour with your left hand a scant 1/4 cup of batter into the middle of the pan. Quickly tilt the pan in all directions to run the batter all over the bottom of the pan in a thin film. (Pour any batter that does not adhere back into your bowl; judge the amount of your next crêpe accordingly.) This whole operation takes but 2 or 3 seconds.
- Return the pan to heat for 60 to 80 seconds. Then jerk and toss the pan sharply back and forth and up and down to loosen the crêpe. Lift its edges with a spatula and if the under side is a nice light brown, the crêpe is ready for turning.
- Turn the crêpe by using 2 spatulas; or grasp the edges nearest you in your fingers and sweep it up toward you and over again into the pan in a reverse circle; or toss it over by a flip of the pan.
- Brown lightly for about 1/2 minute on the other side. This second side is rarely more than a spotty brown, and is always kept as the underneath or nonpublic aspect of the crêpe. As they are done, slide the crêpes onto a rack and let cool several minutes before stacking on a plate. Grease the skillet again, heat to just smoking, and proceed with the rest of the crêpes. Crêpea may be kept warm by covering them with a dish and setting them over simmering water or in a slow oven. Or they may be made several hours in advance and reheated when needed. Crêpea freeze perfectly.)
- As soon as you are used to the procedure, you can keep 2 pans going at once, and make 24 crêpea in less than half an hour.

FRENCH CREPES SUZETTE
This delicious and impressive French dessert was actually an accident. Created out of a mistake made by a fourteen year-old assistant waiter Henri Carpentier (1880-1961) in 1895 at the Maitre at Monte Carlo's Café de Paris. He was preparing a dessert for the Prince of Wales, the future King Edward VII (1841-1910) of England. Preparing the meal, the chafing dish of cordials caught fire. No time to start over, he tasted the dish and found the flavor delightful --- the flame was just the thing to bring all the flavors perfectly together ... the Prince and guests were impressed and Henri named the dish after the Princess. Times do not reflect time to make vanilla sugar or orange & lemon zests. (note: vanilla sugar may also be purchased)

Steps:
- (Optional orange & lemon zests for sauce)At least a day or two before making Crepes suzette, slice a thin piece form the outer rind of an orange, large enough to cover the ball of your thumb, and a smaller piece of lemon rind. Cut both into thin strips, add to 2 tablespoons of vanilla sugar, cover and put away until the sugar absorbs the flavoring oils.
- To make the vanilla sugar:.
- In a glass container, place the sugar and the vanilla bean, cover the container tightly. Set mixture aside (the sugar will be sufficiently scented with vanilla to be used in a week or so). Vanilla sugar will keep indefinitely in an airtight container at room temperature (do not need refrigerate). Replenish sugar as it is used. The vanilla bean is good as long as it is fragrant.
- To make the crepes:.
- Stir the eggs, flour, milk, salt, and water to the consistency of olive oil, or until it will pour back silently and smoothly from a foot or more above the mixing bowl (batter which should have the consistency of light cream, just thick enough to coat a wooden spoon). NOTE: A blender or food processor may also be used for the mixing.
- Heat in a frying pan or crepe pan with 2 tablespoons of butter.
- Pour in enough batter to cover the bottom of the pan. Move the pan to spread the batter thinly, and keep it moving.
- After one minute, turn the pancake upside down, then turn it again, until it is nicely browned.
- Fold the crepe in half, and fold again to form a triangle.
- Proceed to make the remaining crepes, adding butter to the pan only if the crepes begin to stick.
- To make the sauce, melt the butter in a large frying pan.
- When it begins to bubble, pour in 3 ounces of the blended liqueurs.
- When the mixture is warm, carefully flame the liqueurs.
- When the fire goes out, add the vanilla sugar mixture (sugar, lemon, and orange peel).
- Plunge the folded crepes/pancakes into the warm sauce.
- Turn them, and add the remaining 2 ounces of blended liqueurs.
- When the fire dies down again, they are ready to serve.
- Garnish with thin strips of orange zest.
- Serve three crepes per portion. Spoon a little of the remaining sauce over each serving.
