Is there a different schwaebische word for palatschinken? Thin, crepe-like pancakes filled with various types of fillings? My great-grandmother used to make them all the time, filled with cheese, but my grandmother doesn't seem to recognize (or remember) the term "palatschinken." Thanks.John
What we had was pronounced pollachinken..?? don't know the spelling.. My grandmother (Eva KLEIN, b. August 15, 1899 in Timisoara.. came to US/NY in 1909) would sometimes get up early in the morning and make a big bunch of them for breakfast.. We always had them with Grape Jelly.. Thanks for the memories!!

John, In our village they were called "Phannkuche", which literally means - "pancakes" and is clearly derived from the standard German "Pfannkuchen".
