3 tips for successful waffles
- The ingredients must be at room temperature, so remember to take the milk and eggs out of the fridge before making the dough.
- Mix well with a whisk to avoid lumps.
- The first waffle is often grated until you know how long it will take to cook. If the waffle splits in two when you open the appliance, it's not cooked.
Granny Simone's little trick for waffles
You can beat the egg whites to make the waffles lighter. To do this, break your eggs, separate the whites from the yolks, then mix the yolks with the milk, the melted butter, which you add to the flour, and when it's a little homogeneous, fold in your egg whites.
