    FIRST ROUND-THE-WORLD AIRPLANE FLIGHT DEPARTS: The US Army Air Service launches the first aerial circumnavigation of the globe, using a
    specially modified torpedo bomber and relay teams of pilots. Several
    countries had vied to be the first to accomplish the feat, but 175 days
    and 27,553 miles later, the US team will fly into the history books.

    Title: "All-Around-The-World" Custard Pancakes
    Categories: Breads
    Yield: 4 servings

    3 lg Eggs; yolks/whites separated
    1/8 ts Salt
    1/4 c Sugar
    1 c Milk
    3/4 c A-P flour
    3 tb Butter; melted
    1/2 ts Vanilla extract

    MMMMM-------------------------TO SERVE-------------------------------
    Jam; opt
    Powdered sugar: opt
    Butter; opt

    Separate the yolks and the whites into two medium bowls,
    being careful not to drop any yolk into the egg whites.

    Whisk together egg yolks, salt, and sugar until lightly
    thickened - about 45 seconds.

    Add half the milk and flour and stir until batter is
    smooth. Repeat with the remaining flour and milk, this
    time also adding the butter and vanilla. Stir just until
    it is mixed through.

    Using a handheld mixer, beat egg whites until they
    quadruple in size and form soft peaks. For me, this took
    about four minutes.

    Using a rubber spatula, very gently fold egg whites into
    batter. You want to be gentle and avoid stirring or
    mixing too much. Fold until just incorporated, the
    batter will still be lumpy.

    Set a nonstick pan over low to medium-low heat. Heat pan
    for 2-3 minutes until a drop of water skids across the
    pan before evaporating. Do NOT add any butter or oil to
    pan - it's not needed and might overcook the pancakes.

    Using a tablespoon, drop heaping spoons of batter into
    the pan. Cook until the pancakes rise, and then flip
    over using a rubber spatula and continue cooking.

    Depending on your stove, you may need to adjust the
    heat. You want them to cook low and slow, so the custard
    in the middle sets, without the bottoms of the pancake
    getting too dark.
