Scallion pancake.Waffle batter may be made ahead and refrigerated for later use. Store in an airtight container within the fridge for as much as 5 days. Earlier than using, stir effectively. Some discoloration and graying can happen. Stirring will cause this discoloration to go away. Many scallion pancakes recipes I've read use sesame oil to create the layer. Chinese street vendors and restaurants rarely do this because it's very pricey and the result not as delicious as using animal fat. Such an EASY snack or appetizer.
