Tips:
- For the Crepes: Use a non-stick skillet or crepe pan to ensure the crepes come out perfectly thin and evenly cooked. If you don't have a crepe pan, you can use a regular skillet, but make sure to grease it well with butter or cooking spray before pouring in the batter.
- For the Creme Anglaise: Make sure to whisk the egg yolks and sugar together until the mixture is thick and pale yellow. This will help prevent the creme anglaise from curdling when you add the hot milk.
- For the Strawberry Sauce: Use fresh, ripe strawberries for the best flavor. You can also use frozen strawberries, but be sure to thaw them completely before making the sauce.
