    *I bought this to replace an old Sunbeam waffle **MyBest.Kitchen** and pancake maker that my parents received as a wedding present. It is very simple to use and makes perfect waffles. I followed the instructions and lightly seasoned the waffle grids before using it the first time, and my waffles pop right out without any sticking at all. The indicator light system makes very consistent waffles, just slight the lever to the doneness you like, pour batter on when the green light is on and remove when the red light comes on. I can make four large waffles in about five minutes.*

    The thinness of the waffle reminds me of an Eggo Waffle which, if I’m remembering correctly from my childhood, often came out floppy and soggy and required being pushed down for another cook cycle. I wonder if that is their intention - the silicone sleeve cooks it and maybe browns it, but if you want CRISP you put it back in the toaster like a frozen waffle.

    • @RosyMiche
      @RosyMiche 2 роки тому +102

      That's what I was thinking! I can't imagine silicone being a good environment for crisping. Maybe that's what the other lower settings are for; you can put the waffle in for just another few minutes and make it all nice and crisp.

    Quick sidenote: Sugar is measured as a dry ingredient, but bakers consider it a wet ingredient. You want to make sure sugar is well incorporated and it readily disolves in liquids, so by adding it with your wet ingredients you can ensure you don't wind up with flour-coated granuals of sugar in your final baked good, which would result in a crunchy texture. Plus, if you add it to fats (like butter) it works as an aerator etc etc. There's actually a lot of reasons you add it to wet ingredients, but the main reason is that it makes for a more consistent end product.

      I 100% agree. If you don't use your waffle iron all that often, you can always just use it to make huge batches of waffles that you can freeze and then reheat in the toaster oven, oven, toaster, or the microwave. Additionally, you can make some really, really good savory waffles (my mom has a recipe for mashed potato waffles that you serve with bacon and chives) that you absolutely could not pull off in this sort of contraption.

    I can definitely see a use for the waffle toaster.
    It can obviously be used as a plain toaster as well, and with wider slots, could be used for toasting larger items like bear claws or bagels.
    With the silicone (I presume) waffle molds, you could also likely make french toast in it.
    Toasting your waffles again just to get the crispy is a pain, though, but it appears to be much easier to clean than a regular waffle iron.
    It's a multitask device that would replace a common single task toaster, so that seems good.
    My favorite device was a waffle iron with reversible plates that could be used as a griddle on the other side, or a sandwich press.

      @@bleh329 Typically if you see a recipe where someone says add the sugar to the flour, that person is not an experienced baker. I see this happen a lot in the food blogosphere where a lot of people are just sort of ripping off existing recipes and rewriting them to be "different." There's almost no benefit and many, MANY drawbacks to adding sugar to dry ingredients.
      You are correct about the formation of gluten, but additionally adding sugar (and salt, often times) to wet ingredients ensures a much more consistent product. Sugar melts very easily in liquid and that means your final product will be evenly sweetened, in addition to whatever other benefits the sugar may add. In cookies, when you cream the sugar and butter together, you wind up with aeration for texture purposes.

    • @TheBLGL
      @TheBLGL 2 роки тому +3

      Yeah, I said the same thing. The only times I can think of when it’s acceptable to put it in the “dry” ingredients is in pie dough (I personally don’t use it in pie dough, some people do for browning purposes) and some bread recipes like challah or Japanese milk bread, where you mostly dump it all together and knead. I personally use honey in my challah, but some people use sugar. Not sure why people are trying to argue, for waffle/pancake batter and cakes, it should always be included with the wet ingredients. I guess there’s some really bad recipes by food bloggers out there like you said. 🤷🏻‍♀️

    • @butterflyforeve
      @butterflyforeve 2 роки тому +15

      No the silicone to me is to keep the batter in place until the heat can steam it cooked. It will never get very crispy in the mold. I am sure if it had came with instructions that it would say for a crisper waffle place waffle in toast to toast up. If you look the waffle that she laid down and poured was crispiest at the top because it had more space to get air to crisp up.
      I think this would be great to prepare lots of waffles so that kids can pop them in the toaster like eggos but you control the ingredients this way. Making waffles on a waffle maker to make ahead takes forever and you can't really go to far while they are cooking because they would burn, with this you can put it in and walk away to do other mom things.

    6:16, making sure the waffle mold is completely closed: Oooh, I know exactly how this would end in my house. My wife and daughter have trouble closing ziploc bags properly! We'd end up with batter all over the inside of the toaster for sure. 6:50, filling the mold in the toaster: OK, maybe we wouldn't have to wait until the improperly closed mold leaks to get batter in the toaster. It's almost a foregone conclusion that one of us would miss the opening of the mold. At very least, I'd have to use a measuring cup to pour the batter.

When I took out the first ones, I didn't know if they were cooked LOL and they were soft. I was disappointed! I set them on a wire rack and in a minute, they had crisped up! Don't know if the higher amount of sugar made it crispier, but now I want to try more things!

    This gadget fills me with dread. Anything would have to be toasted again because the batter just steams inside, probably be pretty dry.

    I can see one possible practicality. My kids like toaster waffles, which cost about $2.50 for a box of ten waffles. This waffle toaster is about $30. If you've got the time, making and freezing batches of a dozen waffles might save a few bucks over time.

Vanilla Bean Paste🌰 and quite possibly, "butter 🧈 flavored" Crisco, instead of "melted" Butter, to maybe help with "Crispness."🤔 And then Add Butter Flavor Extract to it; I think it would taste REALLY Good with some added Lemon 🍋 Zest, too!😉😘😉😘❤️ Happy Holidays 🎄🪔☃️

    Thank you so much for making this video. Your timing is great, because one of my brothers likes to give oddball kitchen gadgets as holiday presents. Some have proven more practical than others. For example, the most useful one has been the panini maker: plug it in, let it heat up and it turns almost any sandwich into a panini (as long as the sandwich isn't too thick). It even cleans up pretty easily. We make dinner with it it every couple of months. The least useful has to be the pretzel maker: make your own pretzel dough, press it into the molds, close the lid and let 'em bake. The only problem is that rolling your pretzel dough, shaping it into pretzels and baking them on an ordinary cookie sheet would be faster, easier and make less mess. The Vertical Waffle Toaster would probably fall somewhere in between. If nothing else, it looks like you at least get a working toaster, even if you don't use it to make waffles.
