Waffles

Recipe By: Barbara Harrison

Amount Measure Ingredient - Preparation Method
2 cups flour
1/2 tsp salt
3 tsp baking powder
2 eggs
1 3/4 cups milk
4 tbsp shortening

Sift all dry ingredient into bowl: add yolks of eggs and milk. Beat well and add melted shortening which has been cooled. Beat egg whites until stiff and fold into batter: mix, but do not beat. Pour three or four tablespoons of batter into the center of very hot, well-greased waffle iron: if electric iron is used no grease is necessary, spread batter slightly; close iron and bake about 1 1/4 minutes, or until well puffed up, and brown on one side; turn and bake about 3/4 of a minute. Remove at once to a hot plate and serve immediately with plenty of butter and maple syrup.

Yield: "4 ½ waffles"

NOTES : The secret of good waffles is a very hot waffle iron, which should be kept at an even temperature throughout baking.
