Home waffle recipe selection

Waffles got their name from the German word "wafla", which means "cell, honeycombs". Original recipes of cellular delicacy can boast of many countries, but two varieties remain standard for connoisseurs: Viennese and Belgian.



The birthplace of waffles is considered Belgium. It was here in the XII-XIII centuries that baked goods in the form of honeycombs were first prepared. In Belgium you can find two types of waffles: Liege and Brussels.

The former are more like cookies in structure, and the more famous Brussels waffles, which are usually meant when talking about Belgian, have a greater thickness, airy and very delicate texture due to the use of whipped proteins and yeast.



The main feature of Viennese waffles is the cooking process, which allows you to give them a porous structure suitable for adding filling. In addition to the traditional filling of hazelnuts, cream, honey, berries, fruit jam, processed cheese, bacon and even potatoes were used as a filler of Viennese waffles over time.

Homemade waffles Preparing dough for soft waffles has its subtleties. Regardless of the recipe, the yolk must be separated from the proteins. Yellows are added to the dough immediately, and proteins must be pre-beaten to peaks and injected at the very end.



Small air bubbles make waffles airy and lush. If you do not separate the proteins from the yolks, then the waffles can turn out rubber.



If the recipe has kefir, milk or sour cream, then they are added to the penultimate turn, before whipped proteins. The consistency of the dough should be slightly thicker than the dough for pancakes.
