Waffles have been the comfort food in many a kitchen. A waffle is a flat batter cake cooked between two hot plates that are called a waffle iron. Belgian waffle irons provide deep pockets to catch the butter and syrup. There is nothing like a warm, buttery waffle swimming in syrup.The waffle irons of old sat on a gas fired or wood stove. You had to heat both sides of the plate before you added the batter.
It took practice and acquired skill to know when the iron was hot enough to pour your batter in. You also needed to know when to turn the iron as well as when to remove the waffle. Until non-stick surfaces, getting the waffles out of the waffle iron presented its own of set problems.
