Borlengo is a traditional pancake made from a batter of flour, salt, milk, and eggs. The pancakes are very thin because borlengo was originally consumed by poor people and peasants, who used to make it only with flour and water. Today, the pancakes are made in a cartwheel-sized pan, resulting in a huge, monstrously large snack that is often buttered with bacon fat, garlic, and rosemary.
