Making waffles
-
TAKE CARE: Before making the first waffle or before each waffle-making session, lightly
grease the irons with a brush dipped in oil.
-
During a waffle-making session simply brush the irons over with the brush and do not add
any extra grease unless your waffles stick.
-
If it is difficult to remove the waffles, use a mixture made with one spoonful of oil and one
egg yolk.
-
The waffle cooking temperature should be about 200°C.
-
If the appliance remains heated for a long time without being used, take the precaution of
lightly greasing the waffle iron plates, and close them.
§ Place the appliance on a flat and rigid surface. Do not use on any support liable to be affected by
heat.
§ Having first seasoned the irons (see seasoning the irons) start heating the appliance with the
thermostat set to 200°C and irons closed.
§ Wait for about 15 minutes until the irons reach 200°C.
§ Open the irons.
§ Using a brush, oil all parts of the plates thoroughly.
§ Use ladle to fill the plates on just one side so that the top of the blocks is barely covered.
§ Close the irons immediately and tighten one against the other using the handles. When using
liquid batters, turn the irons over (except with irons that open 90°).
§ Leave to cook in this position for three or four minutes depending on the type of waffle, batter
texture and temperature of the irons (adjust the time after a few trial runs).
§ Gently lift one side of the iron and remove the waffles using a waffle fork.
§ Leave to cool, preferably on a cooling rack so that they remain crisp.
