Crispy Waffles

Approximately 10 pieces. That's enough!! We multiplied the recipe by 1.5 which was definitely too much!

2 eggs

1 bottle (12 fl.oz) carbonated mineral water (no fancy flavored one, just the regular plain water plus bubbles)

3 dl (1 1/4 cups) wheat flour

2 tsp baking powder

3/4 tsp salt

1 dl (1/2 a cup) melted butter (or oil)

First you beat the eggs, then add mineral water (so that the carbon dioxide in mineral water contributes to raising and fluffiness of the result). Then flour (mixed with baking powder). Don't forget salt in this phase: the end result is probably relatively creepy if you forget salt.. And finally fat. I don't really know if the flour should be left to soak and puff up like you do when you make pancakes.

Baking is done with a waffle griddle (or waffle iron, is it the same thing?). It feels pretty stupid to buy an electric appliance for a single simple and small purpose. Such a gadget is actually quite a typical wedding present (another memorable one is an automatic electric egg cooker).

After a while the griddle reveals its end result. It makes sense to bear in mind that the griddle is really hot.

Then you add jam and whipped cream on top of the waffle: that's it. You can eat it in a refined way and use a fork and a knife.

Or even better it is to eat this way.
