FABPOW (http://www.pencilandspoon.com/search/label/FAB%20POW),where have you been?! The last one was so long ago; I’ve been neglectful. Notthat I haven’t tried. I have tried. Most weekends I’ve tried. I just haven’t succeeded.I’ve had some good matches but good isn’t good enough. A FABPOW is better thanthat.


Andthis one is seriously good. It’s also in time to celebrate Pancake Day.


Myversion is a classic pancake recipe (http://www.bbc.co.uk/food/recipes/basicpancakeswithsuga_66226) (English-style, not thick American-style) with a slosh of stout in the mix and a handful of blueberries in the pan, then covered in maple syrup on the plate. The beer on the side was Dogfish Head's Palo Santo Marron (http://www.dogfish.com/brews-spirits/the-brews/year-round-brews/palo-santo-marron.htm). The bottle was almostthree years old but it still had loads going on: cocoa, vanilla, berries, abrandy-like booziness. Just imagine those flavours with the burst of sharpsweetness from the blueberries and the maple syrup. Perfect. Any big, rich stout will be brilliant.


HappyPancake Day!
