In Ireland it’s called Máirt Inide, in the UK we call it pancake day, in the USA it’s known as fat Tuesday or Mardi Gras. Shrove Tuesday celebrates the start of the Christian festival of lent, where traditionaly you feast on pancakes with whatever you are giving up for lent which starts the next day on Ash Wednesday. You then do not eat this one ingredient again until easter, when the resurrection of Christ happens.
I enjoy eating my pancakes plain. I do not add anything
Also thank you for your answer Virginia
You are welcome Ben. Stay blessed
Ok, nothing wrong with that, some people like them that way I suppose, not for me, very dry, but each to their own
