Well, next Tuesday, Feb 16, is called Shrove Tuesday or pancake Tuesday. It's the day just before Ash Wednesday, when, traditionally, fasting begins and you have to give up eating altogether or at least certain things. So in the past people used to cook pancakes to avoid throwing away eggs and milk. If you want to enjoy Shrove Tuesday and cook some delicious pancakes, follow this easy recipe.
If you want to know a bit more about this tradition and how it's celebrated in England, you can watch this video of a pancake race in London.
Happy Carnival!!!
