My crepe recipe - cook on medium heat pan:

Blend on low: 4 eggs- 3/4 cup whole milk, 1/2 stick of melted butter, and 1/4cup to 1/2 cup plain flower, 1 heaped tbsp of baking powder, 1/2 tsp salt, vanilla optional and to taste

This cracked me up, because I had a fantastic dream the other night where I had a tour through a donut factory. But the best thing I had (in the dream) was something I'd never tried before, never seen, and which I intend to make at the earliest opportunity. It was slightly salty french fries, buttered and coated in sugar and cinnamon, like cinnamon toast. Bang on. Makes a lot of sense too, if you think about it. Definitely would fit in the "dark breakfast" polygon.

[edit] the potato and bacon theory also comes from what ends up deliciously mixed on your plate at the end, which along with syrup and ketchup is also an integral part of any egg/flour/milk breakfast.

Fancy projection math is only for after coffee!

It wasn't just an omelette on top of a waffle (and both of them the size of a medium pizza). As you strayed from the edges toward the center it became difficult to see where the waffle ended and the omelette began.

Such a shame they went out of business.

It is difficult to put milk into food. Why not just drink it? Alternatively, can we drink eggs and flour?

Cheese is another variation for milk. What about grilled cheese and eggs? Or some variation on Mac and Cheese?

You can also consider other dimensions like vegetables and spices. According to this plane, shakshuka is pure egg. Add spices to milk and you have chai. Add eggs to chai and you have cursed eggnog.

Breakfast burritos are also at least as important as quiche (as in, neither are as tasty without addins - just like omelettes).

Also, while I know that omelette is technically the whipping of large amounts of air into what is otherwise scrambled eggs, it feels wrong to me that "omelette" is categorized as "pure egg singularity". Is an omelette worth the time and effort over scrambled eggs if it does not include bits of vegetables, meat, and/or cheese folded inside like a taco?

- 1/4 c. milk

Did the first two cakes without baking powder, turned into something between a crepe and a tortilla. Did the last two cakes with baking powder and they were just a very squishy pancake.

Common for visualizing mixtures of three things!

béchamel (roux + milk) + egg yolks + cheese

I guess the only difficulty there is we English don't eat those for breakfast, and really only make them on one day of the year. Which I missed this year!

Dammit, we're going to be having a belated pancake day here soon...

Also, amazing article, haven't laughed that hard all day!

You can get them e.g. in London UK: https://www.hopperslondon.com/

I've been meaning to go to Sri Lanka..

I'm sure there's a good joke in there involving trans-dimensional vegans, but I'm still on my first cup of coffee.

The closest existing food I know to this are churros, which can be truly excellent when made well. In places like Barcelona, they dip them in chocolate sauce.

I support your experiments in potato-based churro analogs!

My thinking at the moment is that I probably would not. It seems like further research would reveal a whole new region in the upper left, clustering with Dan Bing, of "asian milkless crepes."

[*] of course, here I mean proper omelettes, which are an egg shell around ingredients, not scrambled eggs with ingredients mixed in.

And don’t get me started on breakfast burritos, top 10 food that’s just ridiculous if you’re ordering it after 3pm?
