Almost everyone has his/her own crepes recipe, this is mine. It has the advantage to be neutral and gives good results.
Recipe for about 15 crepes:
250g strong flour
4 whole eggs, beaten
1 pinch of salt
60g butter
50cl milk or 25cl water and 25cl water
30g caster sugar+alcohol if making sweet ones
Progression
1) Heat up the butter in a pot until golden brown and pass it through a fine sieve.
2) In a large bowl, put your flour and salt. Then, mix in the beaten eggs and when done start incorporating the milk. Finish by adding on the butter.
3) Cover your batter with a clean cloth and allow to rest for at least 2 hours.
4) Right before cooking your crepes, give your batter a good stir. Some pastry chefs like to add in a stiff egg white.
