About Waffle, plain, frozen, ready-to-heat, microwave
The waffle is a light, crisp batter cake cooked between the two hot, patterned plates of a waffle iron, which press its surface into the signature grid of deep pockets. Popular around the world, it comes in many styles, from the tall, airy, deeply pocketed Belgian waffle to the thinner, crisper American waffle and the sweet, chewy Liege waffle studded with pearl sugar. The pockets are perfect for catching butter, maple syrup, fruit, whipped cream, chocolate, or a scoop of ice cream, and savory waffles pair famously with fried chicken.
Waffles provide carbohydrates for energy along with some protein and calcium from the eggs and milk in the batter. They are a favorite for breakfast, brunch, and dessert, made fresh at home or bought frozen for quick toasting. A hot, well-greased iron gives the crispest exterior and tender interior. Choose a batter or mix suited to your iron, and serve waffles right away while they are still crisp, since they soften as they cool.
