Waffles
Waffles.
Make a batter of a pound and a half of flour, quarter of a pound of
melted butter, and two large spoonsful of yeast; put in three eggs, the
whites and yelks beaten separately; mix it with a quart of milk, and put
in the butter just before you bake, allow it four hours to rise; grease
the waffle-irons, fill them with the batter--bake them on a bed of coals.
When they have been on the fire two or three minutes, turn the
waffle-irons over,--when brown on both sides, they are sufficiently
baked. The waffle-irons should be well greased with lard, and very hot
before each one is put in. The waffles should be buttered as soon as
cooked. Serve them up with powdered white sugar and cinnamon.
Quick Waffles.
Take a pint of milk, and beat into it three eggs, and enough wheat flour
to make a thick batter; add a table-spoonful of melted butter, and a
little salt; bake them immediately. Some persons add two table-spoonsful
of sugar, and a little cinnamon; others dust loaf sugar and cinnamon, or
nutmeg over each waffle, as it is baked.
