Pfannkuchen in German became pancake in English around 1430 and bred an English art of pancakery divided by Hannah Glasse into Pancakes, Fine Pancakes, A Second Sort of Fine Pancakes, A Third Sort, A Fourth Sort called A Quire of Paper, and another sort of colored pancakes made green with tansy and pink with beet-root. The German Pancake, however, of Lizzie Kander and Irma Rombauer varied recipe by recipe but was essentially a single large pancake puffed in a hot skillet in the oven.
