NEW WORLD record for panc kes has been set up in Holland in a low-loading semi-trailer hauled by a DAF 2800 tractor owned by the haulage firm of De prieban. In producing a pancake 481 metres in diameter, Jan Enthis, of North Holland, wrested the record from England by 16cm.
The giant frying pan with 12 aurners beneath it has a hinged lid so that the pancake can be tossed. The semi-trailer outfit, four metres wide, is in popular demand as an outdoor kitchen, for the pancakes are being mopped up.
Those with weak stomachs should not read on. The ingredients consist of 1.5 litres of cooking oil, 31.8kg of flour, 53 litres of milk, 106 eggs, 320g of salt, fruit cocktail, sugar, treacle, jam and — yuk to end all yuks — fried bacon.
