The instructions for using my new machine electric Pizzelle were simple: just connect, drop batter, cook a few seconds, and cookies. But, as I discovered several hidden variables in these directions. How to make waffles, the first batch of cookies were so-so.
The cookie dough can be combined with an electric mixer or whisk. This is a pack very "short", which means very fat. It can be melted butter or vegetable oil to grease. The addition of sodium bicarbonate is also apersonal choice. I watched a video by mixing up the batter. There was the yeast and flour is added gradually to a thin batter.
I followed the recipe that came with the grid for the first batch of cookies. They had the yeast in them and were more often than expected. The most distinctive cookies, I added nutmeg. The second game is an adaptation of an orange cookie recipe in the newspaper. Place or orange extract, lemon extract and I added lzest. L 'The cookies were delicious and led to a search cookie.
I could cook pizzelles perfect? With experience, I realized that there are essential steps. These steps, which apply to an electric grill, make beautiful cookies.
1. Baking powder decision. Do you want cookies for ice cream sandwiches? Add the yeast. Do thin biscuits with fruit? Get out the baking soda.
2. Milk or milk? Most of the recipes I found did not contain milk. But the bigCity, website small kitchen is a recipe that contains yeast and milk. The result is extra crunchy.
3. Preheat the grill. My grid has a green light that illuminates when the cooking temperature reached.
4. Do not oil the grate. Many manufacturers tell you to oil the grill plates and spread with butter. I do not. The non-stick works well and the batter is already loaded with butter.
5. Temperature. After experimenting withdifferent settings, I chose number three. It gives me a few seconds longer to reach the grid and remove the cookies brown.
6. Measure accurately. I tried a scoop and a spoon. While both worked, I think that a small scope will work best.
7. Annex location. Mangia Bene Pasta According to the site, making the batter a bit 'behind the middle of the pattern creates round cookies. "This is because, as she things the baker, the first pinch hittersomething. "
8. Carefully remove. Using a wooden or plastic spatula to avoid scratching the grid. Carefully remove cookies and cool on waxed paper or parchment.
9. Cut with scissors. In a perfect world, every cookie a perfect circle. They are not. But you can cut the raggedy edges with scissors.
10. Hitting well. Pizzelles absorbs moisture easily, so put them in an airtight container. If cookies get wet, warm in the oven for a fewminutes.
Finally, I hope you experiment. This dough is very forgiving. Try adding chopped almonds and almond extract, or powdered chocolate or cinnamon. Let your imagination be your guide.
