For me, crepes ain't worth the stress to make fresh. Just buy a little pack from store and focus on filling is my go to.

Gaufre de liège. I made a very authentic version once, involving making a brioche type dough over a few days, giving time to rise and for the perle sugar to rest. Best waffles I've ever had, but so much trouble.

I haven't found them outside Central Europe and miss them so much I have been thinking about making that dough again...

I got a non-stick crepe pan as a wedding gift. Makes it a lot easier.

Lefsa.

Making it solo is a monstrous pain in the butt. It's so easy to screw up too.

Dried pasta is superior to fresh pasta. It is impossible to make it at home.

Mashed potatoes.

The "just add hot water" things are just as good, if not better since they come in all sorts of flavors.

Edit: The snobbery here is astounding. They're potatoes!

No shade; it's just funny that mashed potatoes are so derisive lol

In terms of nutritional value it's actually quite a huge difference, with homemade mashed potatoes being a lot better for you. Something about food being healthier when it's less processed.

Still, the powder one is not the worst thing, and boiling up potatoes takes too long some days. I like keeping some texture though, so for me it's homemade whenever I feel like having it. :)
