The Avenger Posted June 16, 2015 Share Posted June 16, 2015 A good waffle recipe - one that uses egg whites - creates a waffle that has a great crispness on the outside and is very light on the inside. Love it with real butter and grade B real maple syrup. I love the grade B - darker, much more intense maple flavor that the grade A amber or light amber. Also, as a beekeeper, I can tell you that waffles with fresh honey straight from the hive is incredible - you get all the flowery notes from honey that hasn't been heated to nearly boiling during processing - that kills all the natural flavors and all you get is sweet - yuck!

Punching Bag Posted June 17, 2015 Share Posted June 17, 2015 Wow... That sounds totally gross, especially the Nutella part. Does maple sugar have that totally overpowering smell like maple syrup? I mentioned the aroma part. I can handle it, more than some others I know that detest the aroma. Never noticed any odor in maple sugar. Have used it in tea as well. On last trip overseas I flew thru Toronto and got two boxes of maple cookies at shop at airport. Nutella? I like nuts and chocolate but neither can I have as often as I used to.

Yeah, I never got into the Nutella thing. My wife likes it, I find it groady. Interesting tidbit: They were saying almost all hazelnuts come out of the country Turkey. That there was a shortage... Has anybody noticed the price of Nutella going up. Maple stuff does have a very strong aroma or does anybody just not notice it. Throw something w/it in the microwave and the aroma permeates (sp?) everywhere. IMOO (In My Olfactory Opinion)... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
