The first time I tasted Japanese Pancakes was on my trip to Japan last year, and I've been wanting to remake them at home ever since. They're quite similar to American Pancakes in terms of ingredients, but very much different in terms of. I love the way Japanese pancakes taste: light, airy, and oh so delicious. The best part of going to the pancake places, aside from eating the pancakes, is that you get to watch them expertly shape, flip, and plate up serving after serving of fluffy goodness.

Essentially Japanese Pancakes / Soufflé Pancakes are thick, fluffy pancakes. They are almost soufflé-like in consistency thanks to folding egg whites into a batter that is cooked in a round mold. Japanese pancakes taste like a delicious buttermilk pancake, but not as dense. AND they sure do get an A++ in the looks department. Whites can then be very gently folded in after all other ingredients mixed.
