Spring Rye Khanom Tokyo with Citrus Pea Cream

Mon, 27 Apr 2026 00:00:00 +0000

What Makes This Special

This recipe elevates classic Thai ‘khanom Tokyo’—street vendor mini rolled pancakes—by swapping in light rye for a nutty backbone and filling them with a silky citrus pea cream. The result: a sophisticated interplay of earthy grain, verdant spring peas, and vibrant citrus, encased in a tender, whisper-thin rye-tapioca crepe. Minimal processing preserves the peas’ sweetness and color, making each bite a celebration of spring.

Ingredients

We rely on high-quality rye flour for depth, fresh peas for their delicate sweetness, and zesty Thai limes to brighten. Using whole milk and coconut cream creates a lush texture that contrasts beautifully with the lightness of the pastry.
