Pascade is a thick savory crêpe from Aveyron, in the center of France, traditionally made at Easter... The simple batter cooks up to an astonishing texture, halfway between a crêpe and a soufflé, crisp on the inside and... tender on the inside. Think of it as the French cousin to the dutch baby pancake.
