Comments on: crespelle con funghi – pancakes with mushrooms! http://italianfoodies.ie/2008/11/30/crespelle-con-funghi-pancakes-with-mushrooms/ a blog about an Irish-Italian family living in Limerick! Tue, 20 Dec 2011 18:34:40 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.com/ By: Fixup http://italianfoodies.ie/2008/11/30/crespelle-con-funghi-pancakes-with-mushrooms/#comment-335 Thu, 05 Mar 2009 08:43:36 +0000 http://italianfoodies.wordpress.com/?p=406#comment-335 I used something between 180 and 200 when I made it on Sunday. Oven temperature’s probably not that critical for this recipe… It’s not gonna explode and kill thousands of people if it’s a few degrees too high or low :)

My guests loved it by the way. I used mascarpone instead of ricotta, ’cause the supermarket stopped selling ricotta; half an onion instead of shallots, and parsley instead of basil.

I was a bit stressed when I was cooking, because I had more guests than I expected. So I drank red wine. And lots of it. The whole bottle was gone in about an hour. Oops.

Even though all the recipes are really easy to follow from the instructions alone I always find myself comparing the photos to make sure I’m doing it right. There is nothing like a good visual comparison. Plus, they are great photos so why not upload them. I say keep it up :-)

I love blogs with lots of food photos so I’ll stick with it for the moment. Good idea about photomontage if I knew how:)

Although the site wouldn’t look as aesthetically pleasing without the photos, I don’t think many people actually need so many photos to follow the recipes.

In this particular recipe for example, I think you could get away with using just half of the photos that you’ve chosen.

To save time, you could make a quick photomontage of the step by step process, plus a photo of the final dish, so you’d only have to upload two photos.

I don’t know the “cup” measurements. To be honest I haven’t a clue how to convert but I’ll try and find out. Glad you like the blog:)

Jodie – great to hear about the lasagna, I love that recipe. I decided to put the step by step photos in as I like when I read other blogs that do it. You feel more involved? I think it may be easier to follow if you are a bit nervous about cooking new things.

Daily spud – enjoying your blog, I must add a link. Great to see more Irish food blogs.

Mary T – what are we like??:) Send your other half out to me and I’ll change him:)

Ronan – thanks for the feedback, I’ll keep it up so(for the moment) :)

Rach – thanks a mil, I still can’t believe you didn’t eat mushrooms all that time. You can make up for it now I suppose:)

Manuel – it wasn’t far off that here, I took a photo of the mess but decided against it, I have an image to upkeep:)

Con – thanks for the feedback. Too many isn’t right either.

Kats – baby Ethan will be fed well:)

Meg – welcome to blog world:) I must pop over and say ciao! Hope you enjoy them if you make them.

I just started a blog myself (and I am nowhere near with my photography). I have few recipes that I taken step by step pictures but I still haven’t had a chance to post them, editing pictures takes time, also…

But about this recipe – looks amazing, I am a mushroom lover, and love crepes! So definitely will be making those ;)

These look absolutely divine and the fact that all the ingredients are favourites of mine I’m sure these will become my new “fave food”.
FYI: When I lived in London I used to go to a little cafe just off Carnaby Street that served ONLY these savoury italian pancakes. I was in Heaven :-)
Unfortunately, it is now home to a Starbucks…….typical!!!

These are divine altogether and the photos are gorgeous Lorraine!

Thanks for all the work.

Ronan

I’ve since become addicted, we’ve had them for breakfast twice and for lunch once since then! My favourite filling is sauteed bacon and leek (although i can’t convert my other half from jif lemon and caster sugar!)

As for all the step by step photos, for me, the first pic and either of the last two would be enough – just my opinion of course. I made your lasagna for my family recently and it was yummy! No photos, it went too fast! I will definately make it again. Jodie

I think it makes it easier to follow along. Especially love the ones of your bambina!
