Re-thinking pancakes, or: OMG BRILLIANT!

Cafe Society

I love to cook. I don’t generally follow recipes; I think I have a muse. I just make it up as I go along, and have a >90% success rate. The food is ugly, but awesome.
My latest?

Asiago pancakes.

Nothing fancy for the mix. I use whatever comes out of the box, occasionally if there’s enough clean counter space (infrequent, at best) I’ll make 'em from scratch.

So: Pancake mix, however it’s acquired
A generous amount of asiago.
Maybe a little rosemary. Maybe not.

That’s it.
Tried it this weekend, and was floored. I’m thinking of making a large (pan-sized) pancake and pot roast to serve over it. I dunno. Call it “Pots and Pans” or something cutsey like that.

Is this something anyone else has heard of or tried? If anyone’s adventurous and trusting and makes them, I’d love to know what they think.

Sorry but I have no idea what you are talking about. Cheese mixed into pancake mix?

Savory pancakes are common. There are tons of recipes online. Same for savory oatmeal, which is the only way we eat it.

I thought this thread was going to be regarding pancakes that are capable of thought.

Sounds like a decent alternative to potato pancakes to me.

Am I the only one who had to Google “Asiago”?

Why stop with cheese? Toss in a little bacon while you’re at it.

You bare-chested nancies missed this discussion, didjya?

Cheese on top of waffle batter and then waffled is quite nice. Learned from my kids. Sharp cheddar does the trick, but I’m sure Asiago would also be perfectly acceptable…

Things that are worse with cheese added:

Hmmmmm. Let me get back to you, OK? :smiley:
