No one seemed to care that N.Y. Times columnist and heath guru Jane Brody pooh-poohed evidence to not wash chickens, but several people wrote to say, what is that recipe for buckwheat pancakes? This is a modified version of a recipe in a book – those paper-based things that used to exist – by Jane Brody. The family likes it (that’s my Benjamin Button-like mom, who seems to look younger as she gets older, along with 20-year-old daughter, Braunwynn, and the other usual suspects). 1 cup buttermilk (which is so bloody expensive in Australia I just add lime juice to lite milk) I egg 1 tbsp vanilla oil, if you want honey, if you want 2 cups buckwheat flour 1 tbsp baking powder 1 tsp baking soda dash of salt Garnish with fruit (they liked the mango) and maple syrup (from Canada, eh? Thanks mom).
