01 March 2022, is celebrated as national pancake day.

PANCAKE:

Pancake is a kind of hot flat cake, served with a variety of toppings and flavors. Mostly pancake is a breakfast menu but it is a personal choice. Pancakes are generally served with maple syrup on top along with fresh fruits and nuts. Honey is also considered a good substitute for maple syrup. It can be both sweet and savory. Potato pancakes are another form of hotcake.

BRIEF HISTORY:

In the 6th century BC, Ancient Greece and Romans invented pancakes. And became more famous when a poet described warm cake in his writing later in the 11th century.

REASON BEHIND PANCAKE DAY:

Traditionally pancakes are eaten 47 days before Easter and are also known as Shrove Tuesday. Shrove Tuesday is like a national pancake carnival for Christians that celebrate worldwide. The reason to celebrate is to use fatty and dairy products before “lengthen”. This time indicates that we approach summer very soon.
