Sourdough Waffles

Tina0 Comments

I know what you’re having for breakfast this weekend. It took my husband a few tries to get the recipe for these sourdough waffles just right. I didn’t mind at all because it was a good excuse to have waffles for breakfast. You know, it’s a hard job being a food blogger sometimes. 😉 These waffles are Belgian style so they are thick, crunchy on the outside and tender on the inside. Who else loves the extra crunchy bits on the sides from the waffle iron? Since these waffles have sourdough starter in them, they have a slight sourdough flavor. …

Sourdough – Biscuits

Tina0 Comments

Sourdough. Like the pet you never named, well, most people don’t name their sourdough starter anyway. Maybe I (Dave) should name mine. 🙂 There is a bit of a process involved with sourdough. If you are properly maintaining yours, there will be starter that you discard pretty regularly. You have a choice here. You can throw it away (don’t feel bad, everyone does it) or you can try to come up with sourdough things to do with it.

In my opinion, my husband’s breakfasts are better than what we’d have at a restaurant and …

What kind of waffle iron do you have?  (Assuming you have one, of course.) When my husband and I got married, we registered for a Belgian waffle maker.  I don’t remember why we chose that kind.  Maybe I liked the thought of those deep waffle pockets, maybe we just didn’t have a waffle maker and that’s what they offered to register for. A few months ago my husband decided that he wanted to buy a normal waffle maker.  Little did he know how long that quest was going to be.  As it turns out, what people thought of as waffles 30 …

Are you ready for a fool proof recipe that only involves two ingredients? One of my sisters always asks me for easy recipes.  I show her a few, like chocolate chip cookies and pancakes, and she responds back to me with a “No, I mean really easy.”  The challenge was on for me to find something for her to make and I found this recipe. Let’s start with the fact that you only need two ingredients.  If two ingredients is two too many for you, then simply forget about cooking and buy something pre-made.  This is really easy to make.  …
