old new waffle iron

my dad is getting too fancy and him and his wife, debbie, have bought just about everything there is to buy in williams-sonoma. so.. they're turn of the century cast-iron waffle iron was of no use to them so they mailed it to me!

i used my regular "free range pancake" recipe and just slathered the thing with melted butter and it made glorious waffles.

it's not a recipe but it's cool to think about how many people ate waffles from this thing. it's over 100 years old!

awesome.

love,

  2. i'm super jealous. the other day, i made brioche waffles. you should try it. make some brioche dough in your fancy mixer, but don't worry about the complicated butter addition part (if you know what i'm talking about). just throw everything in there and let it go. you'll have to let the dough do that thing where it rises, but it makes some freaking good waffles.
