If you happen to have a sandwich iron, you could use that to make waffles.
Other than making frozen waffles from a box, I don't think it's possible to make waffles without a waffle iron, or sandwich iron.
Yes you can. If it says that it is a waffle maker than it can make waffles
Yes. You can use a frying pan :D
Yes. If you make them in a regular pan, you'll have pancakes not waffles.
Well It seems that waffles are better
It depends on the size of a waffle maker, some are small and can only handle two and others are larger and can make up to 4 small waffles. Some waffle makers can only handle one large waffle as well.
Yes,But then it will not taste the same
in 1926, Charles M. Cole comes up with a waffle iron that runs by electricity and can cook two waffles at once. But, the waffle maker was attablished in the 25th centery and was called a waffle iron
It provides an easier, neater way to cook waffles evenly and properly.
The cast iron waffle maker, as opposed to teflon waffle makers in domestic settings, is primarily used in the context of a restaurant or the outdoors. The cast iron waffle maker does not use electricity and waffles will not adhere to a properly seasoned cast iron surface.
The basic reason is that heat raises. At the same time the batter goes to the lowest point. Turning the waffle maker allows the heat to more evenly cook the waffle and fill in the voids better.
I have found that even a "nonstick" pan, or waffle maker, needs cooking spray. Is the temperature set right, cooked long enough, and did you use oil in the mix?
According to foodtimeline.org:The inventor of the Belgian waffle made famous by the 1964-65 New York World's Fair was Maurice Vermersch: "Vermersch started making waffles from a recipe of his wife's when living in Belgium before the outbreak of World War II. After serving in the war, he started two restaurants in Belgium before making his World's Fair debut at the Brussels fair in 1960. Business went so well in Brussels that Vermersch and four other families decided to head to New York for the 1964 World's Fair. And when they arrived in Queens, the name of their product was changed from the Brussel Waffle to the Belgian Waffle. The name Belgian waffle was created in New York."---"His waffles made memories at the Queens World's Fair," Newsday (Queens edition) August 22, 1989 (p. 21)
The ingredients that go into making Belgian Waffles are water, sugar, flour, yeast, milk, butter, and eggs. You can also add spices and other flavorings to make them special. If you whip the egg whites before you put them in, the waffles become very light.
Waffles have grid patterns because they are baked in a waffle maker. Waffle makers have dimples that press into the batter creating the pattern. The pattern for what ever the reason is excellent for trapping melted butter and syrup.
