Perfect Homemade Waffles (Mochi Vs. Belgian)

Yeah, waffles are good but most of the time, homemade just doesn't hit right. We're going to make a major correction to that by making mochi waffles, the classic Belgian liege waffle, and even a third an easy eggo style waffle.

100 percent real story: My crush was coming over one morning so I asked her what she craved for breakfast so I would have something ready for her. She answered waffles so the night before I found this video and picked up the ingredients for the mochi waffles. They ended up looking just as good as the ones from the video and she said they were the best waffles she has ever tasted. A little after feeding her and hanging out for a couple of hours she asked ME to be her boyfriend. Thank you Joshua <3

Here's the update! Still together, we went to Big Bend, where I took my current profile picture. We stayed in the tipis for a couple of nights and in the bubble hotel for one night. Sorry it took me so long to give an update on it, but everything is going well with us two. We are approaching our 2 year anniversary, which I am really excited about.

And yes, I still make her those waffles, just not too often so they don't lose their novelty and because I'm trying to learn more recipes.

hey Josh ! I'm from Belgium and make Liège waffles for a living and I have to say this recipe is on point ! I would recommend to use some bigger pieces of pearl sugar (C40/C45, if you can get your hands on it, I know it can be difficult in some part of the world). That way you get some crunchy caramelised pieces of sugar while you bite into the waffle, and that's satisfying and tasty !

Also, belgian fries for the next video ?

Liège Waffels are traditionally enjoyed with little to no toppings, fresh from the iron in a little folded paper wrapper .
They greatly differ from Brussels' Waffels that have a much lighter dough that does not contain as much sugar, are long and rectangular in shape, and those are usually the one you drown under fruits, whipped cream or ice creams and various toppings and a drizzle of fruit or caramel or chocolate sauce .

A lot of people have surely mentioned this before, but i feel like i needed to point it out anyway .
Liège Waffels are great, but i personally find it a shame that Brussels Waffels are usually unknown worldwide despite the popularity of Belgian Waffles :D

Anyone else just watched this and got hungry the moment he started pouring the syrup?

He doesn’t like blue cheese, now he doesn’t like blueberries… I’m sensing a trend here.

Josh giving an atla reference was the highlight of my week

Any time Belgium gets mentioned Belgians just go
"This is mine now"

Hey Josh! I just want to say that your tutorials really have helped me as well as put a smile on my face. They’re really informative and helpful and these waffles look great.

Evenin' from the Lone Star State! Just wanna let you know that I made the Americanized version of these waffles tonight. It was delicious! My 5-year old son LOVES them! He said, with a mouth crammed full of syrupy-waffle goodness, "theeth are thuh bethest waffulth EVAR!" ("These are the bestest waffles ever!!!") Hands down, my husband and I agree. This is the 2nd recipe of yours I've made, and I'm buying your cookbook. You've sold me! Thanks so much!!

Ah yes, yet again, Josh posts exactly what I am looking for when I need it. Lol

[shookings]

That "gently melted butter" is all fine and good. But if you want a real flavor punch, it needs to be cooled browned butter

The FLAME YO, HOTMAN! joke was not lost on me josh. I appreciate someone who can drop references like that, papas on fire, yo.

7:23 “buy my book it’s flying off the shelves” joke missed. 😅

As someone who is allergic to both wheat and maple, I love the mochi waffle alternative with the bananas foster on top. Thank you. 🙏

That shot of Josh putting that bowl down at 2:46 just looks so perfect to me, like something out of a high quality high production film. Shout out to the cameramen and editors.

The waffle recipe I’ve always used and learned from my mom is like the American style but you separate the eggs and whip the white until soft peaks, makes a very light and fluffy waffle.

[Nateyns]

I live in Liège and this looks like a proper Gaufre de Liège, congrats Josh

[gabybop]

The only thing that disappoints me is that we didn’t get a cross section of the mochi waffle. I was interested in seeing what the crumb looked like compared to a wheat waffle.

[s-dino]

I know you probably wont see this. But you inspire me. I go to cooking school, and its so boring, but knowing i may be able to cook like you in the future inspire me

There's actually an additional style of Belgian waffles called the "Brussels-style waffle", which is square, has a light and airy batter, and is often served with powdered sugar. Belgian people know their waffles 🧇 😉
