Welcome to National Pancake Day!
Typically pancake day is held on Mardi Gras, which in the pancake world is known as Shrove Tuesday. Historically this day’s purpose was to use up whatever dairy you had in your possession before lent.
The origins of the pancake are hard to chase, but I did find that the birth of the cake-from-a-pan can be traced back to a culinary manuscript from 1430. I also stumbled on the fact that people around the world put the weirdest crap on their pancakes.

Here’s a brief tour around the world… via a magic flying pancake obviously. The United Kingdom uses toppings such as lemon juice and sugar, golden syrup, or wrapped around various meat stuffings. India’s version of the pancake uses fermented rice batter, split skinned urad bean blended with water.
The Chinese use fillings such as ground peanut with sugar, cheese, kaya (egg and coconut milk custard), butter and added condiments that include but not limited to sweetened coconut, egg or domesticated animals… kidding.
