    100 percent real story: My crush was coming over one morning so I asked her what she craved for breakfast so I would have something ready for her. She answered waffles so the night before I found this video and picked up the ingredients for the mochi waffles. They ended up looking just as good as the ones from the video and she said they were the best waffles she has ever tasted. A little after feeding her and hanging out for a couple of hours she asked ME to be her boyfriend. Thank you Joshua

    Liège Waffels are traditionally enjoyed with little to no toppings , fresh from the iron in a little folded paper wrapper .
    They greatly differ from Brussels' Waffels that have a much lighter dough that does not contain as much sugar , are long and rectangular in shape , and those are usually the one you drown under fruits , whipped cream or ice creams and various toppings and a drizzle of fruit or caramel or chocolate sauce .
    A lot of people have surely mentioned this before , but i feel like i needed to point it out anyway .
    Liège Waffels are great , but i personally find it a shame that Brussels Waffels are usually unknown worldwide despite the popularity of Belgian Waffles :D

    hey Josh ! I'm from Belgium and make Liège waffles for a living and I have to say this recipe is on point ! I would recommend to use some bigger pieces of pearl sugar (C40/C45, if you can get your hands on it, I know it can be difficult in some part of the world). That way you get some crunchy caramelised pieces of sugar while you bite into the waffle, and that's reallyyyyy satisfying and tasty !

    Made the mochi waffles with Bananas Foster tonight. Instead of whipping the cream, I added a little sugar and vanilla and drizzled it over.
    As a New Orleanian I have eaten a lot of bananas foster. This was a good simple recipe and I wound up with some toffee in the pan, because I cooked it too fast, but there was a generous amount of sauce so it worked out.
    So the recipe made 2 Belgian waffles, they turned out *amazing*. I put 1/2 waffle and 1/3 of the sauce on each of 3 plates and we gobbled it right up.
    Solid dish, will definitely make again. 11/10. We licked the plates.

    I haven't made waffles since the 90s -- seriously. My mom bought a cheap waffle iron, and I wanted to make some. The instructions with the pancake mix (yup) resulted in a batter thicker than pancake batter, but definitely not as thick as that waffle dough! The purchase of the cheapest waffle iron my mom could find was inspired by the continental breakfast at a hotel on a recent vacation. There was a flipping Belgian waffle maker in the mix of it, and again, the batter in the cups was not as thick as what I see in this video.
    I've been wanting a (decent quality) waffle maker, and this episode just makes me want one more. So thanks for that, dude. You're convincing me to spend even more money.

    Tip for everyone:
    When making the regular waffles, separate your eggs. Mix dry ingredients together. Mix wet ingredients (except egg whites) together. Add wet to dry, stir together, whip egg whites to soft peaks.
    Fold egg whites gently into batter.
    Proceed with cooking.

      It was possibly the _Better ‘Homes and Gardens_ cookbook. Their recipe calls for separating the eggs and whipping the egg whites. The best homemade waffle recipe I’ve found is called the "Waffles of Insane Greatness." I found it on a food blog I used to read, but the original can be found with an Internet search. They taste just like the waffles you get in restaurants and they are insanely fast & easy. The batter comes together in 10 minutes tops and then requires a 30 minute rest once it’s made. The secret to its celestial lightness is… cornstarch. Here’s the recipe from the blog with a few of my own notes set off by asterisks and parentheses.
      WAFFLE OF INSANE GREATNESS” RECIPE
      The original version of this recipe calls for 1 cup milk or buttermilk, but I split the difference and use ½ cup of each. The texture of the batter was lovely, and I liked the slight tangy quality of the waffles, so I’d recommend that you try the same course of action. * I use 1/2 cup of milk soured w/ 1 tsp. Of lemon juice because I don’t usually have buttermilk. I yields the same results.*
      Also, this waffle works in any kind of waffle maker.
      ¾ cup all-purpose flour
      ¼ cup cornstarch
      ½ tsp. baking powder
      ¼ tsp. baking soda
      ½ tsp. table salt (decrease to 1/4)
      1 ½ tsp (1/2 TBLS) sugar
      ½ cup whole milk
      ½ cup buttermilk (or 1/2 cup of soured milk by displacing 1 tsp. of milk with 1 tsp of lemon juice. Let sit for 5 mins.)
      1/3 cup vegetable oil, such as canola (or grapeseed)
      1 large egg, lightly beaten
      ¾ tsp. vanilla extract
      In a medium bowl, combine the flour, cornstarch, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and sugar. Whisk well. Add the milk(s), oil, egg, and vanilla extract. Whisk to blend well, so that few (if any) lumps remain. Set aside to rest for 30 minutes.
      Preheat a waffle iron. Follow your waffle maker’s instruction manual for this, but my guess is that you’ll want to heat it on whatever setting is approximately medium-high. My waffle maker has a heat dial that runs from 1 to 7, and I turned it to 5. Oil the waffle maker. (Original text said oiling wouldn’t be necessary, but that’s so not my experience.),
      Pour an appropriate amount of batter into your hot waffle maker. This amount will vary from machine to machine, and you should plan to use your first waffle as a test specimen. Cook until golden and crisp.
      Yield: depends on the size and configuration of your waffle iron (~ 3 for my regular, non Belgian, waffle maker).

Though sometimes, especially in restaurants, you can also get them with whipped cream, fruits, chocolate sauce and all that other fancy schmancy.

    Love this review! Actually going to try mochi waffles tomorrow but personally I’m a Belgian Liege waffles kind of guy. Always love those crisp crust covered with crisp caramelized pearl sugar then chewy insides with crystalized sugar bits in every bite. I mean, it’s texture heaven. And the salty and yeasty bread just compliments everything. Also you don’t need toppings or syrup to enjoy it. 😍

Next up do Fried Chicken, there are SO MANY kinds and I usually stick to Korean and Thai styles (depending on what sides I want with them).

      Hmmm....despite what the first reply said (it's not a bad idea), for me if i leave a dough to sit overnight, the result just ends up tasting like fermentation and yeast... which imo is not a very good flavor for dough, especially for waffles. If you don't want it to taste like all your hard work has gone to waste and you don't want to start over, don't let it sit for no more than 2 hours.

    Hey Josh! Another great video!! Being from Belgium, we have 2 types of waffles, the Liégeoise and the Bruxelloise… my favorite is the Liégeoise but like it was mentioned previously by a fellow Belgian, it needs bigger pieces of pearl sugar which is hard to find in the US 🥺 but it makes a huge difference!!!
    The gaufre de Bruxelles is light and airy and is also super delicious with some whipped cream and strawberries!!! Or just powdered sugar as it’s traditionally being served❤
    Belgian waffles are truly amazing but maybe I’m being a little partial 😅
    I’ll try the mochi one though, it also looks delicious! 😋
