If you decide to prepare a breakfast of fluffy and soft Viennese waffles for the whole family, don’t think that you can make the dish by simply mixing all the ingredients.

Waffles will only turn out truly delicious if you follow a few rules.

Your goal is to get the waffle batter smooth and flowing freely between the cells on the waffle plate.

This mixture is what guarantees that the dish will be airy.

For this reason, you should not stir the baking mixture for a long time, because this process releases gluten from the flour, which means that the waffles will not be fluffy, but, on the contrary, will turn out denser.

Therefore, first you need to mix all the wet ingredients of the dough with the dry ones until smooth and only then add the beaten egg whites and sugar.

Now let's talk about that secret ingredient that makes waffles crispy on the outside while still being soft on the inside - it's nothing more than cornstarch.

Finally, we will give advice to those who are just thinking about purchasing a waffle iron: when buying a device, give preference to devices with a temperature controller. This function will allow you to cook both light soft waffles and dark crispy ones.
