Waffle Makers Are An Excellent Addition To Any Kitchen

By Walter A Monroe

Some people are afraid to try to use waffle makers. For some reason waffles and waffle makers have gotten a bad rap as being very complicated. This seriously is not the case. In fact, if you do not want to attempt making your own waffle batter at first, you can purchase a commercial mix. There are many of these available, and quite a few of them are very good. Once you have become comfortable with the waffle making process, then you can try making your own batter.

There are many different types of waffle makers available in stores and online. You can find everything from the traditional round waffle maker to the Belgian waffle maker. There are waffle makers which are for small waffles or thick Belgian waffles. You can even find them with special shapes. Imagine surprising the kids with "Mickey Mouse" shaped waffles.

The traditional round waffle makers seems to be the ones most frequently purchased. This type of waffle iron is generally quite basic and simple to use. Most will include red and green indicator lights to let you know when the iron is hot enough, and when the waffles are ready. Even the top brands of this type of waffle maker are usually inexpensive enough for just about anyone.

There is nothing quite like a properly baked Belgian waffle. These are so crispy outside, and soft in the middle. An absolutely fantastic culinary delight at breakfast, lunch, dinner or even dessert. In order to make homemade Belgian waffles, you will need to use a Belgian waffle maker. This machine will have a thicker space for the batter, and deeper grooves. There are a lot of different Belgian waffle makers available depending on your preference and budget.

Some people prefer to have a machine that does more than make waffles. You will find waffle makers that are capable of baking waffles, grilling Panini, and even grilling meat. These come with removable grilling plates which can be switched for the desired cooking purpose.

The professional waffle maker allows the user to make the crispest, deep pocket waffles which are still soft in the middle. These flip waffle makers allow the waffle to be flipped half way through the baking process in order to achieve even baking on both sides. Most include a drip tray to catch any spilled batter. Ready indicator lights or sounds will tell you when the waffle is finished. This removes any guess work or timing. You should certainly expect to have control over the temperature with a professional waffle maker.

Waffles are delicious, no matter what you choose for a topping. The addition of a waffle maker is a great idea for any cook who wants to try something new, and loves waffles.
