Belgian Waffle Recipe??

Members do not see these Ads. Sign Up.

My wife just walked into my office and reminded me that since we absolutely loved the freshly made Belgian waffles that we purchased while walking along the beautiful streets of Ghent at the podiatry seminar last week, we wanted to get a good recipe by which to make Belgian Waffles here in California. My stomach thanks you in advance for the culinary advice! Here is a chance for the Joris, Ken, Kerstin, Inga, Bart and others to contribute to something vitally important for the podiatry profession!!

 

Hi there,
Belgian Waffles are a staple 'afters' for dinner parties at my place. Don't forget the homemade icecream and the caramel sauce.
The more oil you add, the crispier they get without the 'body' and vice versa. Also a souring agent like cultured buttermilk, non fat yoghurt, or a tablespoon of vinegar in your milk and leave to sit for five minutes till it reaches it's isoelectric point (curdles) makes any baked item crispy on the outside.
Here is a production line version of a traditional yeast rise one...
And this little baby is the one I use each and every time.
Happy cooking and post photos.
In my next post-who put the pow in the kung pao chicken!

Mahtay:

Thanks for the recipe and ideas. I think that at least of the Belgian podiatrists should submit one of their recipes.....I mean they do call them Belgian waffles!!

Hey Kevin.

We did not forget you but we had to look for our recipes ...
Somewere on the attic ...

Comming up, straight from “our grandmothers” cooking archive.

For 20 waffles :

500 gr flour
A bit of salt
Half a spoon of backing powder
300 gr fine, white sugar
20 gr of vanilla sugar
25 gr vanilla powder
400 gr butter
6 eggs

Take the flour, salt, backing powder, the sugar, vanilla sugar and vanilla powder in a big bowl, mix it, and make a small hole.
Melt the butter, stir the eggs and pour this into the little hole.
Start mixing the ingredients until you get a smooth paste.
Let it rest for 2-3 hours.
Heat the waffle-maker well and start backing.


Enjoy it guys.

Just let me know if it was ok .


Cheers and many greetz, also to Pam !!!!!

Joris and Reinhilde

 

By the way Kevin,

We are working on a "global protocol" to encourage your famous "hand-foot-thing" ...

What do you think... will it work ????

Go Kevin and Ken .....

Joris:

The "One Legged Dog Handshake" is very nicely being demonstrated by Ken here. So that others might not miss it, I have started a new thread on the handshake here http://www.podiatry-arena.com/podiatry-forum/showthread.php?t=3749

Thanks for the recipes!!

 

Kevin,

My pleasure,

Hope you enjoy the waffles.

I like the new thread....
We'll add some more perfect demonstrations of "the move".

Let's make it global !!!!!!!!!!


Cheers,

Joris

 

Yes,
They know where they can find the good stuff...:drinks

 

Hi
Kevin I hope you enjoy the waffles, I know I will try the recipes given and I've never even been to Belgium!
:drinks Wendy

 

Wendy:

The waffles we made from the recipe didn't quite taste like the ones we had in Ghent. Thinking about it makes me want to go back again for their waffles.....and their beer!!

 

reading this, Kevin, we can ALWAYS arrange something... there are plenty of things to do and talk about to find a good reason to try the beers and waffles again.
Just say the word, or shall I? :drinks

Ken:

Just let me know when, and I'll check my schedule. Would love to see if you guys have learned to do the "Three-Legged Dog Handshake".:drinks

 

I suppose 3 legs is better to stand on then 1 after a couple of cold ones... ;-) But as I recall well, the one-legged Dog Handshake was pretty challenging!
I'll keep your offer in mind Kevin!
