  • This video shows you how to make delicious waffles, but not just any Waffles, Liege waffles which happen to be my favorite and are extra sumptuous thanks to the delicious pearl sugar that is caramelized inside of them.

    Liege Waffle Recipe: 12-16 count
    4 Cups of all purpose flour
    3 Tablespoons of brown sugar
    4 Teaspoons of Active dry yeast
    1 Teaspoon of salt
    Stir To Combine
    2/3 Cup of Luke warm water
    2 Teaspoons of Vanilla Extract
    6 Eggs
    2 Cups of Butter and melt it in a pan.
    Let it cool off before mixing in the dough one last time.
    Cover With Towel and let it rise for at least 90 Minutes
    2 Cups of Pearl Sugar, mix it in with the dough
    Let it rise for at least another 15 Minutes
    And voila you are ready to heat up your waffle iron and cook these babies.

    When I bake I personally like to make larger batches. Waffles can easily be frozen to stay fresh and heated back up within literally a couple of seconds in the microwave or toasted in just about the same time as you’d toast a regular slice of bread.
    As for the ingredients, it’s actually pretty simple. As a small note, I’m aiming to make between 14 to 16 waffles, but if you want to make a smaller batch, let’s say only 8 waffles, just use half the quantities that I am using in this video.
    First, start by taking out a large bowl and then use a measuring cup in order to measure 4 cups of all-purpose flour. In the same bowl add 3 tablespoons of brown sugar and 4 teaspoons of Active dry yeast and finally add a teaspoon of salt. Owning a set of spoons that have the perfect measures will really make this recipe much easier. Once you’ve put these initial four ingredients in the bowl you can star stirring everything to combine. I do recommend having an electric hand mixer since it does make the process super easy, but doing it by hand using a spoon isn’t too hard either. While you are mixing add 2 teaspoons of vanilla extract and 2/3 cup of luke warm water. Do take note that the water needs to be lukewarm or even room temperature. Using hot water will actually kill the yeast. Reminder Yeast is alive. They are actually single-cell organisms. Using lukewarm water will help activate them and make the dough rise.
    Now that everything is nice and mixed take six eggs, break the eggshells and combine the whole egg with the dough. Before mixing take two cups of melted, put it in a pan and let it melt thoroughly. Once melted, let it cool down for 15-20 minutes and then add it to the bowl with the mixed dough. Again, don’t add scorching hot butter, it’ll kill the yeast. We wanna keep them alive so that they can do their thing. Now that everything is mixed that your hand mixer or big spoon and continue mixing until everything is nice and blended. You should end up with a super wet and sticky dough. Now simply cover the bowl and let it rise for at least 90 minutes. Once that is done it’s going to be time to put in your pearl sugar. Now, some grocery stores have it some times but I personally prefer just getting some on Amazon and having it shipped to my house. It’s extremely inexpensive and a very important ingredient to Liege Waffles. Regular sugar will not blend the same way. Once you have the pearl sugar, mix 2 cups of pearl sugar with the dough and mix. This can easily be done with a wooden spoon. It really doesn’t take much effort to mix in this last bit of sugar. Let the dough rise for another 15 minutes and we’ll finally be able to heat up the dough into Liege Waffles. While the dough is rising, it’s a good time to take a Belgian Waffle iron and let it pre-heat for at least 10 minutes. If you’re wondering where to buy an iron, I once again recommend Amazon. It’s just convenient to get it from there. After all we already got the pearl sugar online. Traditionally Liege waffles are supposed to be circular but if you want to make them squared I’m sure they’ll be just as delicious. I like the circular shape so I tend to only use the middle part of my iron and heat 1 waffle at a time. I do recommend making little balls out of your dough simply because it’ll give you a better idea of how many waffles you end up with. If you don’t do that you might end up making huge waffles and making way less than you had anticipated. It really doesn’t take much dough in order to make a waffle.
    As you can tell, the recipe is pretty simple. I’m really not a specialty chef. I’m just a Belgian living in America who really misses his Liege Waffles.

    I noticed you use brown sugar (unrefined sugar from sugarcane).
    I believe the original recipe in Belgium uses unrefined sugar from beetroot instead of sugarcane. In Belgium, in Tirlemont's sugar refinery, they use local beetroot.
    I'm just wondering if there is any difference in taste between unrefined sugarcane sugar and unrefined beetroot sugar.
    Also, I would advise to prepare the yeast separately away from the salt to give the yeast a chance to grow strong. Then 10 min later you can dump it into the mixture that contains salt.

    • @TheDavidNeytsShow
      @TheDavidNeytsShow  Před 16 dny +2

      Hi, this recipe is mainly catered to people that aren't living in Europe, but were missing the delicious taste of European waffles, so I used ingredients that were reasonably easy to purchase at a local American store. There may be a slight difference between the beetroot sugar and refined sugar but honestly it's minimal. As for the yeast. I did the same recipe in Belgium with the yeast I bought there and it grew much more with the Belgian one than the American one I use in this recipe. Definitely the quality of ingredients is different from continent to continent. The recipe comes out great with the ingredients I buy at USA stores but have to modify when doing same recipe in Europe. Also, since this is a recipe I look at it as art. You should experiment with it and find a way to do it that fits your taste pallet and kitchen equipment that you have. There are definitely things that authentic waffle makers in Belgium have, like the industrial waffle maker, that you most likely will not have at home.

    I've made these a few times now and they're delicious. I usually make a half-batch, and can mostly just halve the ingredient list. I personally put 2 tablespoons of brown sugar, 'cause you can't have too much sugar right? ;P
    Also, if you're making these particularly without a power mixer, a much more effective way to get things to properly mix is to
    1. Bloom yeast on its own in small bowl with just yeast and warm water and a pinch of sugar. Let bloom for 5 minutes
    2. Mix flour and salt in a small bowl
    3. Mix melted butter, brown sugar, half the regular sugar, eggs, vanilla extract in a large bowl with whisk, add yeast once bloomed and mix with whisk
    4. Add a little bit of the dry flour/sugar at a time and mix with spatula, folding from bottom up and scraping down sides, until all is incorporated
    5. Rest for hour
    6. Add rest of the (pearl) sugar and finish mixing
    Hope this might help anyone else :)

      I think it can stay in the fridge for 2-3 days no problem, but then you should use it to make the waffles. Once the waffles are made you can always just freeze them and take out when you want to enjoy one. I've found that straight from the freezer, if you put it in the microwave for 20 seconds it becomes almost as good as fresh.

    One thing I ran into with my wafflemaker was burning the sugar. It gets progressively worse as I make them per batch. I've been doing them at 3 minutes per waffle. If I do it less, there are still sugar chunks that were not carmelized. I normally avoid spraying cooking oil on the waffle maker. Will that solve the problem you think, or do you think there's another solution? Thanks

      The burning sugar is a good thing. Just make sure you wipe the iron off and re-grease after each use. The sugar is caramelizing on the outside of the crystal, as well as forming a caramelization on the outside of the waffle. Burnt sugar = caramel and that's a delicious thing! Let that sugar melt, burn, caramelize, and clean off the iron between batches, if you don't clean it between uses you might get some nice extra caramelized sugar coatings on more waffles you make and trust me, it's a really good flavor to have, especially because the sugar crystals inside the waffles are also melting and caramelizing when they cook. It's good stuff ☺️

      Active dry and instant yeasts can be substituted for one another at a 1:1 ratio. Active dry yeast will take about 15 to 20 minutes longer to rise than instant yeast. To encourage active dry yeast to start its activity without having to proof, just use very warm water in your dough mixture (120-130°F).

      If you use instant yeast, put it 1TBSP of it in a liquid mixture without the flour, allow the yeast liquid mix to become very frothy and then add your flour gently. Another thing I recommend for the Liege waffle dough is for the butter to be softened and not melted and slowly adding it to your dough, provides for a really nice color and really easy workable dough as well

      @@susanabushaban2719 Hi, they are pretty close to the traditional waffles but it's hard to mimic the taste 100% with the ingredients that are found in the USA. There's differences in the flour, sugar, eggs, etc... that just don't make it feel 100%. They are really delicious though but have noticed a difference in taste when I make them in the USA or in Europe.

      Hi, I use a toastmaster Belgian waffle maker but it's definitely not the best waffle maker on the market. This website gives you more examples of good waffle makers but they are more expensive but also more authentic. www.thebelgiankitchen.com/ But if you're just doing waffles once in a while you might as well just get a toastmaster. They work well and aren't too expensive.

    I have tasted these and they are indeed delicious! But just to mention... to those of us in the US, that is not brown sugar. We'd call that turbinado or raw sugar, bigger grains. Brown sugar is finer and stickier. Made w/molasses?

As for cooking, I don't believe that delicious recipes have to be hard, and nothing in cooking is perfect. What might taste good to one person might be horrible for another. Personally, this is my favorite recipe for waffles, but I'm sure you can experiment and find what recipe works for you. Cooking is just chemistry and life doesn't have to be hard or complicated to be good.

    The dough should be mixed like 10 minutes to reach an elastic consistency. This is very important or your waffles won't be like brioche. Yours hasn't been mixed enough. The tips of the waffles show so as they look brittle. Also the butter doesn't have to be melted, just softened.

    I don't understand why you even bother using measuring spoons at all when most of the time you didn't even fill them even to the top.

      As fungi, yeasts are eukaryotic organisms. They typically are about 0.075 mm (0.003 inch) in diameter and have many forms, from spherical to egg-shaped to filamentous. Most yeasts reproduce asexually by budding: a small bump protrudes from a parent cell, enlarges, matures, and detaches.
