Tried: The Greatest Waffle Recipe Ever 1 day ago

From Serious Eats, via Lifehacker.

Whoever named this recipe really wasn’t kidding around.

Separating the eggs and beating the whites is kind of a pain, but the results are absolutely worth it. The waffles come off the iron crispy and ultra light.

Next time I want to try adding 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla.

Tried: 5-minute Ice Cream 1 day ago

I heard about this from Lifehacker and couldn’t wait to try it. I got my opportunity today, when I went grocery shopping with my mother. It’s incredibly easy:

  • 12 ounces frozen fruit
  • 2/3 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla

Just dump in the blender and you’re done. You can eat it just like that, or freeze it longer. I had a couple of spoonfuls, but I think it will be much more delicious from the freezer. I was really impressed by how pretty it looked. The color was amazing!

The best thing about this recipe is that it’s highly customizable. You could choose organic frozen fruit, or do half of one kind of fruit and half of another. You can add any kind of sweetener you’d like. You could use soy milk. I imagine you could even add other flavoring—hazelnut coffee syrup comes to mind.

Recipe from Instructables.
