Pancake Rainbow:
If you add tomato juice or paste to the mixture, we get a red color.
To achieve yellow and orange - finely grate the carrots.
Blue and blue pancakes will provide red cabbage juice.
Greens will also be useful if mixed with spinach puree dough.
For pink, boiled beets are ideal. You can add vanilla sugar to get rid of beetroot flavor.
For whites, you need to use whipped protein.
4
Fry the pancakes on both sides, twist the tubes with your favorite filling and cut into pieces.
This option for serving beetroot pancakes is ideal for a romantic dinner or Valentine's Day.
note
The color of the finished pancakes will depend on the variety and juiciness, for example, beets or carrots used. In any case, natural dyes are safer than powder dyes. Experiment, and your pancakes will not only be delicious, but also beautiful and colorful.
