Nordic Ware French Crepes & Wraps Pan and Dipping Dish Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This is the best crepe maker I have ever used, I and I have been making crepes for about 25 years! Anyone who creates a mess on the counter using this product needs to work on their technique.
The main secret is to dip the crepe maker uniformly straight into the pan and hold it there for no longer than about a second. Then immediately lift straight up and hold it there for another 1-2 seconds BEFORE turning it over. This will make the batter cook just enough so that it will not run when you turn it back over (no mess).
Another secret is to LIGHTLY oil the pan often. It takes some practice to find the right amount of oil, as too much oil will cause crepes to fall off into the pan and too little will allow the batter to burn.
One last bit of advice: the batter must be exactly the right consistency; not too thick and not too thin. Again, this takes practice. But with all these things in place, you will make beautiful, perfect crepes every time. I hope this helps.
My only (tiny) complaint about this product is that the batter pan should be heavier. When the batter gets very, VERY low, the pan must be held down to the counter so that the final few crepes do not stick to the pan. Other than that, this product is perfect!
***UPDATE***
Just like the other reviewer, my dipping pan also started to peel after about 3 uses. However, I called the manufacturer and they promptly sent a new one. So if that happens, call them and they will take care of you!
***NEW UPDATE 1/14/11***
I am happy to report that after a year my new dipping pan is still perfect - no flaking! I suppose there was a bad batch at one point and that they fixed the issue. Also, don't be afraid to use it with an electric stove. That's what I have and it continues to work great! This is the third crepe maker I have had in 25 years and it is by leaps and bounds my favorite. I continue to give it an enthusiastic thumbs up!
