Fluffy Japanese pancakes have gained popularity worldwide because of its lightness and fluffiness. This pancake is mainly an egg-based dish. There are a few tips to the fluffiness of souffle pancakes. One is a steady and slow cooking over low heat. Covering the pan also is necessary to keep moisture inside. Another tip is by beating the egg whites properly. Don’t over or under-beat the egg whites. Some go through trial and error when making this process to perfect the pancake, but it’s all worth it.
