TRUE BELGIAN WAFFLES
It was on a visit to my husband's relatives in Europe that I was given this Belgian waffle recipe. These homemade waffles are great with any kind of topping: blueberries, strawberries, raspberries, fried apples, powdered sugar or whipped topping. -Rose Delemeester, St. Charles, Michigan

GAUFRES (AUTHENTIC BELGIAN WAFFLES)
A recipe so authentic that I had to convert from grams and translate from French! These waffles are rich and delicious (don't bother with syrup!), and the basic recipe is from a Belgian friend of mine.

Steps:
- Separate the 4 eggs, adding the yolks to the sugar and setting the whites aside for later use.
- Add the flour and butter to the yolk and sugar mixture, first by stirring and then by working the mixture into a uniform dough with your hands.
- Beat the egg whites until they are fluffy: when you lift the beater from the whites, soft peaks should form and then fall back, not holding much shape.
- Crumble the dough and drop the pieces into the egg whites.
- Stir by mashing the pieces of dough into the whites with a spoon, then stirring until a uniform consistency is achieved.
- Heat up a waffle iron.
- When it is hot (but not too hot), drop the batter onto the iron in the desired serving size.
- I usually get about 12 waffles roughly 4-5 inches in diameter from this recipe.

LIEGE WAFFLE RECIPE / LIèGE GAUFRE RECETTE
I found this recipe on a blog and wanted to put it here for safekeeping, haven't tried it yet, but it looks really yummy. The Belgian Pearl sugar can be purchased at Amazon, http://www.amazon.com/Lars-Own-Belgian-Pearl-Sugar/dp/B001LDAE4C. Waffle iron temp is the key it seems to get the sugar to carmelize without burning.

Steps:
- Place yeast, milk, and water into the workbowl of a stand mixer. Stir for a few seconds to moisten the yeast.
- Add the egg and 1/3 of the total flour. Mix to blend. Scrape down sides of bowl.
- Sprinkle remaining flour over the mixture, but do not stir it inches Cover and let stand 75-90 minutes (at the end of that time, you'll notice the batter bubbling up through the cover of flour).
- Add brown sugar, salt, and baking powder* ( * while baking powder is not a traditional ingredient, it provides a slightly more modern texture. If you like, omit the baking powder and add 1/2 teaspoons more yeast.) to the workbowl of a stand mixer. Mix on low speed - just to blend.
- With machine on low, add honey and vanilla. Then add 2 tablespoons of butter at a time. Mix 4 minutes at medium-low speed; scrape down sides once or twice in that period. Let the dough rest for 1 minute and then continue to mix for 2 minutes. If you measured your ingredients perfectly, the dough will be sticking to the sides of the bowl in the last minute of mixing and then, in the last 30 seconds of so, will start to ball-up on the paddle. If this does not happen, let the dough rest for 1 more minute and mix for another 2 minutes. Whatever the outcome of the extra mixing, proceed to Step 6.
- Scrape the dough into a large bowl, sprinkle lightly with flour, cover with plastic wrap and let rise at room temperature for 4 hours. This step is crucial for developing the flavor.
- REFRIGERATE FOR 30 MINUTES BEFORE PROCEEDING TO STEP #8. This is essential. The yeast respiration must be slowed before continuing.
- Stir the dough down (meaning: gently deflate the gases from the dough, by pressing on it with a rubber spatula), scrape it onto a piece of plastic wrap, and then use the spatula to press the dough into a long rectangle. Fold that rectangle over on itself (by thirds - like a letter) so that you have a square of dough. Wrap it in plastic, weigh it down a bit (I put two heavy dinner plates on top of it) and refrigerate overnight.
- The next day, place the cold dough (it will be quite firm) in a large bowl and add all of the pearl sugar to a bowl. It will seem like a lot of sugar, but it's supposed to be :) Mix it into the dough by hand until the chunks are well-distrubuted. Once mixed, divide the dough into 5 pieces of equal size.
- Shape each chunk into an oval ball (like a football without the pointy ends) and let it rise (covered loosely in plastic wrap) for exactly 90 minutes.
- If you have a professional waffle iron (meaning: it's cast iron and weighs over 20 pounds) cook at exactly 365-370 degrees (the max temp before sugar begins to burn/decompose) for approximately 2 minutes.** Give each waffle a few minutes to cool slightly before eating. No syrup or toppings are needed, unless you'd like to add some fruit or a dusting of powdered sugar; they're quite sweet on their own.
- If you have a regular waffle iron, heat the iron to 420 degrees (hint: many regular waffle irons go up to and over 550 degrees at their highest setting) , place the dough on the iron, and immediately unplug it or turn the temp dial all the way down. Otherwise, the sugar will burn.
