Steps:
- Make the bechamel: Place onion and butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat, and cook until onion is translucent and softened, about 5 minutes. Add flour, and cook, stirring constantly, for 2 minutes. Whisk in milk in a slow, steady stream. Cook, stirring constantly, until mixture has thickened, about 5 minutes. Add 1 cup Gruyere, and stir until cheese melts. Remove from heat, add nutmeg, and season with salt and pepper.
- To assemble: Heat oil in a large saute pan over medium heat. Add garlic, and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 2 minutes. Add spinach, and cook, stirring occasionally, until wilted, about 2 minutes. Add red-pepper flakes, and season with salt, pepper, and a squeeze of lemon. Let cool slightly. Squeeze out any excess liquid, and coarsely chop.
- Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Reserve 2 tablespoons of bechamel. Mix remaining bechamel and spinach in a medium bowl. Butter a rimmed baking sheet. Place 1 crepe on center of sheet, and top with 3 tablespoons spinach mixture, spreading evenly. Top with another crepe, then 3 tablespoons spinach mixture. Repeat with remaining crepes and spinach mixture, ending with a crepe. Spread reserved bechamel on top, and sprinkle with remaining cup cheese.

Steps:
- Into a medium bowl, sift together the flour, 1 tablespoon sugar, and the salt. Make a well in the center, and fill it with the eggs, egg yolks, and a few tablespoons milk; whisk until a thick, smooth paste forms. Add the remaining milk, and whisk until no lumps remain.
- Melt the butter in an 8-inch nonstick skillet with a 6-inch-diameter bottom; pour into the batter, leaving a coating of butter in skillet. Let the batter rest at room temperature 1 hour.
- Over medium heat, warm skillet thoroughly. Lift skillet off heat; stir batter, and carefully ladle 3 tablespoons into skillet. Immediately rotate skillet so batter is thinly spread evenly across skillet to the edges. Return skillet to heat; cook crepe until edges are golden brown and lacy, about 1 minute. Using a heatproof rubber spatula, carefully flip crepe; cook other side until golden brown, about 30 seconds. Slide crepe out of skillet onto a plate. Repeat with remaining batter, stacking cooked crepes on top of one another. Let crepes cool completely.
- Prepare an ice bath. Place creme fraiche in a medium bowl set in ice bath. Add vanilla and remaining 3 tablespoons sugar to bowl; whip until mixture holds a line drawn by the whisk.
- To assemble: Place a crepe on a serving platter. Spoon 1 heaping tablespoon preserves on top; using an offset spatula, spread in a thin layer over crepe, leaving a 1/2-inch border around the edge. Cover with another crepe, stacking neatly. Spread 2 heaping tablespoons creme fraiche mixture evenly over crepe, again leaving a 1/2-inch border around the edges. Continue alternating fillings with crepes, finishing with a crepe on top. If necessary, insert two long toothpicks through the layers to keep gateau in place. Refrigerate at least 15 minutes.

Steps:
- Put eggs, milk, flour, butter, sugar, and salt in a blender; process until smooth and combined. Refrigerate until cool and thickened slightly, at least 30 minutes and up to 1 day.
- Heat a 10-inch nonstick skillet (pan should measure 7 to 8 inches across the bottom) over medium, and brush with butter. Pour 1/4 cup batter into pan, turning and tilting skillet to coat bottom evenly; if batter is too thick and does not spread evenly to edges of pan, whisk in more milk, 1 tablespoon at a time, to reach desired consistency. Cook until top of crepe appears set, bottom is firm and golden brown in spots, and edges lift from pan, 1 to 2 minutes.
- Slip a spatula under crepe, and gently flip in one swift gesture; use spatula to unfold or rearrange crepe, as needed. Cook until bottom is firm and golden brown in spots, 30 seconds to 1 minute. Transfer to a plate, and cover. Repeat with remaining batter, brushing pan lightly with butter every 2 or 3 crepes, or as needed.
GâTEAU DE CRêPES
Steps:
- The day before, make the crepe batter and the pastry cream. Batter: In a small pan, cook the butter until brown like hazelnuts. Set aside. In another small pan, heat the milk until steaming; allow to cool for 10 minutes. In a mixer on medium-low speed, beat together the eggs, flour, sugar and salt. Slowly add the hot milk and browned butter. Pour into a container with a spout, cover and refrigerate overnight.
- Pastry cream: Bring the milk with the vanilla bean (and scrapings) to a boil, then set aside for 10 minutes; remove bean. Fill a large bowl with ice and set aside a small bowl that can hold the finished pastry cream and be placed in this ice bath.
- In a medium heavy-bottomed pan, whisk together the egg yolks, sugar and cornstarch. Gradually whisk in the hot milk, then place pan over high heat and bring to a boil, whisking vigorously for 1 to 2 minutes. Press the pastry cream through a fine-meshed sieve into the small bowl. Set the bowl in the ice bath and stir until the temperature reaches 140 degrees on an instant-read thermometer. Stir in the butter. When completely cool, cover and refrigerate.
- Assemble the cake the next day: Bring the batter to room temperature. Place a nonstick or seasoned 9-inch crepe pan over medium heat. Swab the surface with the oil, then add about 3 tablespoons batter and swirl to cover the surface. Cook until the bottom just begins to brown, about 1 minute, then carefully lift an edge and flip the crepe with your fingers. Cook on the other side for no longer than 5 seconds. Flip the crepe onto a baking sheet lined with parchment. Repeat until you have 20 perfect crepes.
- Pass the pastry cream through a sieve once more. Whip the heavy cream with the tablespoon sugar and the Kirsch. It won't hold peaks. Fold it into the pastry cream.
- Lay 1 crepe on a cake plate. Using an icing spatula, completely cover with a thin layer of pastry cream (about 1/4 cup). Cover with a crepe and repeat to make a stack of 20, with the best-looking crepe on top. Chill for at least 2 hours. Set out for 30 minutes before serving. If you have a blowtorch for crème brûlée, sprinkle the top crepe with 2 tablespoons sugar and caramelize with the torch; otherwise, dust with confectioners' sugar. Slice like a cake. Batter adapted from ''Joy of Cooking.'' Pastry cream adapted from ''Desserts,'' by Pierre Hermé and Dorie Greenspan.
