my dad‘s british so i know what im talkin about
1. set pan to medium-low heat
2. butter the pan quite generously but not too much so they don’t crisp
3. put crumpet down on to pan (hole side down)
4. cook until golden brown; flip em
5. add more butter, cook the flat side just until they are heated throughout
(bonus tip: when first adding the crumpets to the pan butter up both sides first before cooking the hole side)
6. add jam or like nutella or just ur fav spread (also salt if ur naughty like me)
maybe the most stereotypical rec i will ever make but you don’t understand how perfect crumpets are. they hold the butter and marmite perfectly. they are a creation of god
It doesn't matter where— coffee shop, bar, laundromat, indian restaurant… nothing more powerful than familiarity & friendship with the folks who keep your life going
