ZWT 6. These pancakes are delicious. I just tried them this morning. I heated the juice of half an orange in the microwave and put the raisins in the hot juice to plump up. If you don’t have cake flour or pastry flour on hand, use all purpose white flour, but use 2 tbsp less flour.
Forget the Sacher Torte! This is, imho, the best desert made in Austria. My friends and I were just finishing lunch at a heuriger in Grunzig when we saw enormous platters of this being served to another table. We had to find out what it was and order it ourselves. It may well have been the culinary highlight of our trip (that, and the one perfectly-prepared Wienerschnitzel, something that is not often done right, even in Austria). Spear a piece of the hot pancake, dip it into the plum compote and, yes, that is a smile on your face!
