CLEANING AND CARE
Here are a few easy steps to keeping your waffler looking and working like new:
1. Always unplug the waffler and allow it to cool before cleaning. There is no need
to disassemble the waffler for cleaning. Never immerse the waffler in water.
2. Brush away any loose crumbs from the grooves. Wipe grids clean with paper
towel, absorbing any oil or butter that might be down in the grooves of the
grid. You can also wipe grids with a damp cloth. Do not use anything
abrasive that can scratch or damage the non-stick coating.
3. Wipe the outside of the waffler with a damp cloth only. Do not clean the
outside with any abrasive scouring pad or steel wool, as this will damage the
finish. A little metal polish suitable for aluminum may be used occasionally
on the top housing. Do not immerse in water or any other liquid. Do not
place in the dishwasher.
4. Should any batter become baked onto the grids, pour a little cooking oil
onto the hardened batter. Let sit 5 minutes to soften batter, then wipe off
with a paper towel or soft cloth.
5. Do not use metal utensils to remove your waffles, they can damage the non-
stick surface.
Recipes
Classic Waffles Makes about 3 cups batter
1 cup all-purpose flour 2 large eggs, separated
1/3 cup cornstarch 1 tbsp. granulated sugar
1 tbsp. cornmeal (optional) 1 cup milk
2 tsp. baking powder 1/4 to 1/2 tsp. pure vanilla extract
3/4 tsp. salt 1/3 cup unslated butter, melted
In large bowl, sift or whisk together flour, cornstarch, cornmeal, baking powder and salt
to blend thoroughly; set aside. In mixer bowl, beat egg whites until soft peaks form. Add
sugar; continue beating just until stiff peaks form; set aside. Whisk together egg yolks,
milk and vanilla. Using rubber spatula, stir milk mixture into flour mixture, blending just
until dry ingredients are moistened. (There should still be small lumps; do not over mix.)
Stir in melted butter. Fold in beaten egg whites until combined. Pour batter onto hot,
greased waffler and bake.
Waffle Tip: Cornstarch makes the waffles crisper. If you don't have cornstarch, you could still
make great waffles by omitting cornstarch and increasing flour to 1 1/3 cups. Bake as directed.
