La Paysanne

For people who were up before the bread. Crisp at the corners.

Tante Maëlle's note

How to make it

  1. Pour buckwheat batter and spread it thin.
  2. Cook it crisp and brown on both sides, unless the guest asks otherwise (that is how the notebook recommends it).
  3. Sprinkle the lardons.
  4. Place the mushrooms: usually 4 pieces.
  5. Place the egg: usually 1 piece.
  6. Fold it: Envelope. Four edges swiped toward the centre: a square galette.

Price and cost

It sells for 9,00 €. At the usual helpings it costs about 1,95 € to make (0,40 € of batter and 1,55 € of fillings), before any discount and less for home-grown fillings. Mastery stamps and the market's charm cards raise the price; see mastery.

The notebook page

The page is missing at first. It turns up the first time you serve this crêpe well. Until then the stub reads:

It smells of smoke and of the woods. Lardons, mushrooms and an egg.

It belongs to the set Les Galettes du marché, worth 4 pearls once every crêpe in it has been served really well.

Who loves it
