Some history on Jaffle Irons.
The history of the jaffle iron begins with wafer irons in medieval times. These were used to produce flat, unleavened cakes and consisted of two metal plates with wooden handles. The plates were connected by a hinge and the cakes were cooked over a fire, flipped to cook both sides. The Belgian waffle iron was a direct descendent of this device. The original jaffle iron was likely inspired by the waffle iron.
Jaffle Ad large when it was first advertised in 1949, the device was described as a “pressure toaster”, perhaps to trade off the idea of the pressure cooker. Its advantage was that the edges of the bread were pressed together to contain the hot filling. The jaffle iron was embraced with some fervor. There were even cookery demonstrations showing how to use it and the device cropped up frequently as a desirable prize at shows, social events, and the odd charity “do”. Sadly, it could also become a weapon. An Illawarra Daily Mercury headline in December 1953 screamed ‘Wife hit husband with “Jaffle Iron”; fined £3’.
Jaffles were touted as “the latest cookery creation for all the family to enjoy”. They were considered trendy enough for entertaining as well. In 1949, the Western Mail in Perth proclaimed: Before long, food manufacturers latched on to the craze. In 1950, grocers were advertising “Edgell Bologanaisse (sic) Minced Beef and Spaghetti - 1/11. A New Line for the Jaffle Iron.” The irons were available in single and double models and were obviously treasured. A wistful note in Mount Gambier’s Border Watch in 1950 offers a reward for a lost one.
Similar devices were available in America, perhaps as early as the 1920s. In the USA they are called pie irons, pudgy pie irons, or “tonka toasters”. An electric version was patented in 1924 by Charles Champion of Illinois. He also invented the machine for making popcorn.
An electric sandwich maker was produced in Belgium in the early 1970s. For a short time the Australian company, Breville, distributed these but problems with supply led to the company developing its own toasted sandwich maker. The Breville Snack & Sandwich Maker became a huge success in Australia and in Britain, to the point where, in many places, a jaffle is actually called a “Breville”.

If you butter BOTH sides of the bread the outer part of the bread wont stick to the toaster, the inner bit of butter seals the edge of the 2 slices. Crack an egg into it and if you time it right the white will be solid while the yolk will be all runny. Great when you take a big bite and you get yellow lips as the yolk flows. ham and cheese is another good combination. But really that toaster did not need anything doing to it other than a clean on the OUTSIDE with some wire wool. The red and black handles were used as a reminder of which side you had all ready toasted. I have 2 of these that are in use every week.
Nothing like a curried mince jaffle!! Man do I miss the days as kids now!!
I started watching this thinking, let's see what this tossers does.
You nailed it, and you are not a tosser. Great job. Not often do I see someone do something properly.👍👍
Hahaha thank you, I appreciate it!
Очень оригинальные выпечки получаются в таких формах. Никогда подобное не ел.
Вам - уважение за мастерство и за сохранение и восстановление старых формочек для выпекания вкусняшек.
Привет из Сибири, Россия.
Excellent restoration 👍👍👍Thanks for sharing
Cool , never seen one of these before. Good job👍
Thanks 👍
Te felicito por tu trabajo, ahora estamos listos para un buen desayuno 🇵🇪
Hi nice restoration
I think I preferred the original red handle, but still looks good!
I agree. In the US the purpose was for youngsters to easily know if they had turned the pie iron over.
well now I need one! Wonderful!
Very nice, AJ!
All that lovely PATINA ............
Hello AJ beautiful restoration well done
We use to have one of these back in the 70's we use to call them speedy snacks in the UK
Hey man, remember when I said it would be a good idea to use electrolysis for the gas stove you restored, the reason I said that is that when metal has a lot of pitting it tends to have a lot of rust hidden inside the pits that can't be reached by sandblasting or acid wash. Electrolysis is the only thing that works too remove it all.
there is always good material for restoration👍
Awesome Job!! 👍😁
I use to love going on a picnic as a child my pop would always bring his jaffle maker and we would bring a stew to cook them over a camp fire
Only thing that could make this restoration better would have been a wood camp fire to cook it on. Like the finish u got from baking the oil.
Buddy you did excellent work, as always, I really like the result 👍
Thank you so much 😀
O wow..what a wonderful treat to have after a brilliant restoration. Also its like Restoration - Inception here LOL. Great to see an old restoration project in a new one. This is why i love your channel. Epic stuff.
Growing up I knew them as 'pudgy pies'. Still have 4 pie irons in the pantry from when we used to go camping in Wisconsin and some other places.
Love me a bacon, cheese, egg an onion jaffle on the fire. When I was a lighty in the 70's we used to call them UFO broodjies.
Valeu AJ! Deu até água na boca!
love it💕
More suited for cooking on an open fire/in a coal/wood burning stove, also for cooking toasted sandwiches and waffles?
You can use them on a gas stove or open fire.
It’s not a waffle maker
Very nice! I could just do with something like that as my breakfast didn't make much of an impact on my hunger! 🤣 Great video as always, dude! 🍻🤘💜
Thanks for watching Andy! I appreciate!
I like the stainless steel I would use Dawn soap and brass wire brush.then polish the outside and did just the inside
Good morning from Southeast South Dakota
Well good day from North of Pretoria, South Africa!
Pls dont where gloves when working on the drill press or working on the lathe. And another amazing restoration. Wish you would've include the recepe :)
I like recepe's.
Greetings from the Netherlands,, Kitty.
I do not have a sandblaster. What can I do instead to get it cleaned to the equivalent as sand blasting. My late mother bought ours probably around 1960's and I would like to restore it and enjoy those meals she made. Your advice will be appreciated. 👍👍
thats pretty cool =)
Cool 🌸
Lekker lis vir n jaffle🌸
Jy moet kom kuier dan maak ek vir jou so paar
@@AJRestoration Ag lekker .sal awesome wees dankie
Top handle must be red for ppl that use it wrong.
Oh no, what did you do. You need to have one red and one black handle so that you can tell the difference between negative and positive when you plug it in.
Hahahaha dammit, how could I!
I’m surprised that you didn’t.Paint the handles blue.
Where do I actually find one of those old round jaffle makers
Excelente restauracion, respetos desde Venezuela😲🤜🔥🤛🙏💯
That actually didn't look in all that bad of shape to begin with.
I thought it was something like a waffle maker, but it looks like it makes great toasted sandwiches!!!! Would love to see a Tawa restored. if I spelt it correctly an indian pan. 💌👍🥘🍳
Может быть, действительно, деревянные ручки хорошо бы сделать разноцветными... Как Вы, как Мастер, считаете?!
I guess you need to receive more stuff in need of restoration. This one just needed some cleaning, that's all.
Очень захотелось откусить!!!
Did it actually need restoration
100% hahaha
So Pretty 💕💕💕💕
Thank you! 😊
You bastard, do you have any idea how lus I'm for a jaffle now?
Come, I'll make you a few!
En dan braai ons
@@AJRestoration Dit reen en is vrek koud hier!
next time Oven cleaner or lye
Oven cleaner is not going to work since its aluminum.
@@AJRestoration it will work on aluminum to with out harming the metal take it from an old codger ; )
Olive oil isn't the preferred oil for seasoning, vegetable oil is better.
Its not olive oil.
@@AJRestoration what is it?
@@UnCoolDad Read the bottle, FLAX SEED OIL! 🤦♂️
...а я думал, что это вафельница, нет, что то другое!!!
Very nice restoration 👏 👍
