(Can be done days ahead.)", "Sift flours.Combine coconut milk through salt and whisk into flour til a smooth batter is formed.Add black sesame seeds. Let rest at least 30 minutes.", "Heat a small 8"" non stick skillet til hot, wipe with paper towel saturated in clarified butter or canola oil. Make a test crepe. Pour in 3 Tablespoons crepe batter, while rotating pan , so crepe is thin and rund. Let edges set til brown, flip and cook a few seconds til brown spots form. Remove and stack on plate, covered with damp towel. Add milk as needed, to thin batter.", "Assembly: Place the crepe on a plate with the second (spotted) side down. Spread a thin layer of azuki cream over the crepe, follow with whipped cream, sprinkle with pecans. Fold into quarters or roll up crepe. You could also make a 'cake' of layers of flat crepes with azuki, cream and pecans, cut into wedges to serve.", "* Note: Ginger Syrup: Add 2 cups white sugar to 1 cup boiling water with 1/2 cup unpeeled thinly sliced ginger.

Leave out the nuts to make it nut-free, or swap in seeds for a similar crunch.
A good 1:1 gluten-free flour blend works well if you need a gluten-free version.
