Philip Harben shows how to thicken soups and sautes, describes the use of batter as an 'envelope', and makes pancakes.
Both eggs and wet flour will set firm when subjected to a cooking temperature. If flour is wetted to the consistency of dough (3 flour, 1 liquid), suitably aerated and then cooked, the result has the consistency of a cake or pastry. Thinned by the addition of liquid till it will only just pour (2 flour, 3 liquid) it is used as a batter which will quickly set into a firm envelope when 'food coated with it is baked or fried. Alternatively it will set as a pancake when poured into a hot frying pan. Thinned still further (1 flour, 10 liquid) it will change to a creamy consistency when boiled, and this property is made use of in thickening soups, sauces, and gravies. Eggs alone or in combination with flour have the same property.
