The Lightest and Crispiest Waffles Ever!
-serves 6
These are probably the lightest and the crispiest waffles ever, and a regular on Saturday mornings in our home. Recipe courtesy goes to the now not-so-little baker Preet, who started making these when she was only 6. I like to think my daughter's love for cooking and baking started with this recipe. We didn't have an electric whisk and lived in a high-rise apartment in Hong Kong, with the tiniest kitchen one can imagine, and therefore the lack of equipment. The poor thing would beat the egg whites with all her might using a regular whisk, until stiff. She would then carefully fold in the rest of the batter and pour it in a minuscule waffle-cum-sandwich maker. We fell in love with the recipe instantly, and have never had waffles outside of home since. Enjoy these little-as-air beauties with plenty of juicy berries, and a good drizzle of maple syrup or Nutella - YUM!!
