Ficelle Picarde

This savory stuffed crepes recipe from Helene ofMasala Herbinterprets the French dish, locally known asFicelle Picarde. While it enjoys popularity in the Picardy region of France, globally, not so much. And that is, well, unfortunate.

So, this is Helene’s delicious attempt at bringing this dish to international consciousness. She makes a tempting proposal—a delicate crepe with ham and mushroom filling, then covered with a velvety bechamel sauce (the original is cream).

Smoked Salmon Crepes

These crepes from Sarah of Champagne Tastes are soft, buttery, and slightly crispy around the edges. But combined with a lox spread, a combination of salmon (cold smoked), capers, and prepared horseradish, it becomes an unforgettable food experience.

Each bite is filled with turkey, mozzarella, pesto, tomatoes, and roasted red peppers. So, instead of making an old drab turkey club with uninspired ingredients, make this delightful lunch instead.

Mushroom And Spinach Crepes

These soft and elegant crepes with spinach and mushroom filling from Kankana ofPlayful Cookingare suitable for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. Now, we’ve seen mushroom and spinach crepes before, but we like this one because the filling is so buttery, saucy, and flavorful with oregano and chili flakes.

Banh Xeo (Sizzling Saigon Crepes)

How about pork and shrimp-filled Vietnamese crepes from Bee, the creative mind behind Rasa Malaysia? The crepe itself is made with rice instead of wheat flour. Also, the recipe doesn’t call for eggs. So expect a crepe with a slightly crispier texture.

And that filling, what with pork shoulder, shrimp, sliced onions, mushrooms, red chiles, and bean sprouts, is to live for.

But we’re really excited about thenuoc cham, an irresistible sauce made with fish sauce, chilies, sugar, garlic, and lime juice. Like hot sauce in the USA, in Vietnam, they put it on everything.

Chicken Asparagus Crepes

Kate ofBabaganoshhas a penchant for turning classically sweet dishes like pancakes and honey cornbread into savory meals. Such is the case with this scrumptious chicken crepe recipe.

So naturally, you start with a buttery crepe (she even provides an alternative softer buttermilk crepe recipe) that you fill with satisfying, just salty enough shredded chicken, ricotta, and parmesan filling, finally, you top it with asparagus.

Beetroot Crepes

These crepes from Adina ofWhere Is My Spoonare bright pink thanks to beetroot. They make an excellent breakfast for Valentine’s, Sweetest Day, or even Christmas. However, the savory filling with crème fraiche, cream cheese, horseradish, and dill makes us smile.
