Questions about Cheese waffles

How do you get cheese waffles crisp rather than soft?

Preheat the waffle maker well and lightly oil the plates. Cook until golden and the steam has mostly stopped; cool waffles on a wire rack rather than stacking them, which traps steam.

Which cheese works best in cheese waffles?

Mature Cheddar gives the batter a savoury flavour and melts readily. Grate it finely so it spreads through the waffle instead of clumping.

What goes well with cheese waffles?

Try them with a poached egg for brunch, or serve alongside tomato soup for lunch. A spoonful of chutney or sliced spring onions makes a good savoury topping.

How should you store leftover cheese waffles?

Cool them promptly, refrigerate in a covered container and eat within two days. The Food Standards Agency advises reheating leftovers until steaming hot throughout, and only reheating them once.

Can you freeze cheese waffles?

Yes. Cool them completely, freeze in a single layer, then transfer to a sealed bag; reheat from frozen in a toaster or oven until steaming hot throughout.

Do cheese waffles have more protein than ham waffles?

Ham waffles have 12.4 g of protein per 100 g, compared with 11 g in cheese waffles.
