- Is the goats' cheese too strong?
- If you are new to goats' cheese, choose a fresh, creamy 'chèvre', which has a milder taste than matured varieties.
- What honey should I use?
- More distinct honeys like flower or forest honey suit this dish, but acacia honey is also a great choice for a milder flavour.

Goats' cheese and honey pancakes
One of the oldest rules of gastronomy: opposites attract. The distinct, slightly salty and tart flavour of goats' cheese meets explosively with the floral sweetness of honey. The bitter crunch of toasted walnuts and the resinous scent of rosemary make this dish an elegant, complex taste experience, suitable as a starter or dessert.

Instructions
1
✓
Prepare the pancake batter: mix flour, salt, eggs, and milk, loosen with soda water and oil. Let it rest for 20 minutes.
Tip: Resting is important so the batter doesn't tear and you can cook it thin.
2
✓
While the batter rests, toast the walnuts in a dry frying pan for a few minutes until fragrant. Be careful, they burn quickly!
Tip: Toasting brings out the essential oils in the nut, making the flavour much more intense.
3
✓
Fry the pancakes in the usual way, thinly.
Tip: Aim for thin pancakes so the filling flavour dominates.
4
✓
For the filling, crush the goats' cheese, mix in the toasted walnuts, finely chopped rosemary, and a little pepper.
Tip: The spiciness of the pepper provides an exciting contrast to the sweetness of the honey.
5
✓
Fill the pancakes with the cheese mixture, roll them up or fold into triangles, and place in an ovenproof dish.
Tip: No need to roll tightly; the heat will soften the cheese anyway.
6
✓
Place in an oven preheated to 180°C for 5-8 minutes, just until the cheese warms through and starts to become creamy.
Tip: No need to bake, just warm through.
7
✓
To serve, drizzle generously with honey and sprinkle with a little more rosemary.
Tip: On the warm pancake, the honey becomes liquid and coats every bite.
