These pancakes get their light texture from a batter made with club soda. Pressing hard on them when frying makes them crisp.

Sauce:
Step 1
Whisk ginger, soy sauce, vinegar, chili oil, and sugar in a small bowl until sugar is dissolved. Set sauce aside.
Pancakes and assembly:
Step 2
Whisk flour, cornstarch, salt, and sugar in a large bowl. Whisk club soda, soy sauce, and sesame oil in a medium bowl to combine, then pour into dry ingredients and whisk until smooth (be careful not to overmix; it’s okay if there are a few small lumps). Fold in scallions.
Step 3
Heat 1 Tbsp. oil in a medium nonstick skillet over medium-high. Pour ¼ cup batter into skillet. Cook, moving pan around on the burner for even cooking, until bottom of pancake is set and golden, about 2 minutes. Flip and cook, pressing down on pancake to create direct contact with pan, until other side is golden, about 1 minute. Continue cooking, turning often to keep scallions from burning, until golden brown and crisp and cooked through, about 5 minutes longer. Transfer pancake to a wire rack. Repeat process with remaining batter and remaining 3 Tbsp. oil 3 more times to make a total of 4 pancakes.
Step 4
Cut each pancake into wedges if desired and serve with reserved sauce on the side for dipping.

Back to TopThese were thick, doughy slabs. They exemplified pancakes' worst attributes, with no redeeming factors. Keep googling, folks. There must be dozens of better recipes out there.

The sauce is fantastic but the pancakes were dense, even with the club soda. Saving for the sauce recipe.

I've made this often and it's easy and excellent. I've used sparkling water when I can't get club soda. Great recipe.

I don't have club (or any) soda but would like to try the recipe. Why is it included and what could be used instead? baking soda? On a similar topic, this happens frequently with recipes I've seen listed by Epi and other recipe sites. I usually just ignore or substitute where I can, but its ridiculous under current circumstances--hard enough to get the basics.

These tasted really good, especially with the sauce. The pancakes however, did not crisp up much and they remained a little doughy in the middle. This sauce though tasted amazing, I added ketchup instead of sugar for more depth and it took away some saltiness since I did not have any low sodium soy sauce. Overall I liked them, but next time I would definitely make them thinner or use a really hot, different pan (or something) to really get a crisp and crunch.
