Waffles

I'm kind of free so I'll write on waffles now. All this is based on my own knowledge, so it may be wrong.

I'm not entirely sure what the dough of waffles is made from, so I can't elaborate on that. However, the flavourings are obviously made from whatever they're called. Like red bean is made from red bean, kaya from kaya, and chocolate from cacao. Or cocoa. Can't remember.

Anyway, here are some factors that affect the taste of waffles:


1. Time for waffle to cook

The most common problem. When put for too long it'll burn, obviously. But for some reason it's more common to have them put for too short a time. When that happens the waffle won't be crunchy and will be pretty floppy to an extent.



2. Amount of dough used

They kept doing this problem when trying to save money. They put too little dough and as a result, the waffle became too thin and you can practically taste the thinness. I don't really know how to explain it, but it kind of feels like the whole waffle was a bit smaller than it's supposed to be.


3. Things done while cooking waffle

I don't mean you can't walk off, of course. This may not be a very big error, but it does affect a little bit. A lot of people forget to scrape off any part of the waffle that might have overflowed and stuck to the sides. If you don't, the waffle will (if you can get the whole thing off) be kind of oddly-shaped. And when you try to pick it up, the waffle will get bent at strange angles because it's hard to pull off.

I think those were the main problems. Now onto the spreadings:

1. Dilluting the spread with water

This is a huge NO. It makes the flavour taste watery, which sucks at any rate. It's also quite obvious when the spread spills onto the paper wrapping the waffle and it has a watery texture.


2. Putting too little spread

Also a no thank you. It sucks to have parts of the waffle where you can't taste any flavour. And not too much though, or the spread will spill out easily.


I'm too bored, aren't I.

Sayon.
