Thin English Vegan Pancakes & Storytelling, Part 2 of 2

“Those disciples were very surprised and said, ‘How could Master have saved you? He has been here eating with us the whole time!’ The nearly drowned person said, ‘I almost drowned in the river, but then I saw Master come. He was on the river bank teaching me how to swim and what I should do in order to save myself. He was talking so loudly that I could still hear Him from the river. Then I followed his instructions, so I was able to swim to the riverbank and come back here to see you now.’ The disciples then realized that their Master really had great magical powers and was omnipresent. Whatever a Master does is for the disciples’ sake. Sometimes we see a Master doing something strange or talking nonsense about something. Then, we start wondering if what He said has anything to do with us. We even doubt His actions. We shouldn’t doubt Him at all.” “Only a real living Master can save us. Otherwise, no matter what religion you believe in, there is not much use.”

“You may also add some sesame powder. It’s also OK without it. If you do, two spoons are enough. If you add sesame powder, it will be more nutritious. But it looks a little bit dark. If you use white sesame it will look nicer; like this.” “Without sesame is the simplest, just mix water and flour together. You can even go without vegan yogurt. The vegan yogurt is to make it more soft, more delicious, and more fragrant.”

“We can add lemon and (vegan) sugar later, according to your own taste. You can add fructose or you can add (vegan) sugar. Jam, vegan ham, vegan butter, and preserved bean curd are also good toppings. So you don’t have to add lemon. Some English people add vinegar which is sour Anything is OK, depending on what you like. Savory or sweet, either way is fine. Always remember to put some salt on it, then the taste will be more intense.”
