❓ Frequently Asked Questions

Q1: Can I use other veggies instead of cabbage?
A: Yes! Zucchini, spinach, or broccoli work, but make sure to drain excess water.

Q2: What if I don’t have starch?
A: Substitute with a bit of whole wheat flour or oats, or skip it (but the pancake may be softer).

Q3: How to store leftovers?
A: Keep in the fridge for up to 2 days. Reheat in a pan or microwave. Freezing isn’t recommended (texture suffers).
