Thanks Grandma Perigo


At Bunko (a.k.a. bunco) last month we exchanged recipes. I tried Grandma Perigo's homemade waffles, probably brought by Kendra. They were very, very good. I even took a picture for Brooke and Jessie- they always enjoy a picture of food.:)

Grandma Perigo's Famous Homemade Waffles
3 1/2 c. flour
1/2 c sugar
3 Tbs Baking Powder
1/2 tsp salt
3-4 egg yolks- whip egg whites separately until stiff peaks form and set aside
1/4 c vegetable oil
2 c milk- powdered milk can be used

Mix all ingredients, except egg whites, well. Fold in stiff egg whites. Cook on preheated waffle iron. Use 1/4 c batter per waffle. Serve with strawberry syrup.

Strawberry syrup
3 c fresh or frozen strawberries
1/3 c sugar
1 tsp cornstarch

Thaw berries. Do not drain. Place half of berries in blender until smooth. Repeat with other half of berries. In medium saucepan stir together sugar and cornstarch. Add berries. Cook and stir for two minutes. Remove from heat. Cool to room temp. Makes about 1 cup sauce.
