Not your everyday waffles

by Sarah J. Gim, Posted Jun 20th 2007 @ 7:55AM

We all know that the fastest, easiest way to make your breakfast special is to go to the effort of making either pancakes or waffles. To make pancakes or waffles even fancier, all you have to do is "top" them with something more than just butter and maple syrup, right?

Russ Parsons of the LA Times has "a thing for waffles" and takes them another step by breaking them down by texture (crisp or cake-like), type (Belgian or flat), and batter-type. The recipes he includes as his favorites are:

Sour cream waffles and Yeast-raised waffles and to top them,
Peaches cooked 'sous vide' and Roasted orange-flavored rhubarb

He also includes tips on how to freeze waffles so you can do all the dirty work in advance and have fruit-topped waffles every morning, all summer long.

I had forgotten the amazingness that is rhubarb and must rediscover it this weekend. My Granana made some mean rhubarb pie, but the waffles above have opened my eyes to further amazing opportunities.
