This is what we Romanians call “pancakes” (clătite). In the US for example, these are not “pancakes”. What Americans call “pancakes”, we call “clătite americane” (American pancakes) or just “pancakes” (the untranslated English word).
~The pancakes in the photos were made by me~
We don’t either but I made those pancakes on 1 March which is a holiday called Mărțișor and those red and white strings are the symbol of it. Women receive and wear those.
Neat. I don’t think we really have an equivalent to that. Maybe the wearing green on St.Patrick’s but that’s more the whole being a nation of immigrants thing than our own holiday.
