Time 1h

Yield 4 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

Ingredients

1/4 cup sour cream
1/2 teaspoon lemon zest, plus 1 teaspoon lemon juice
Pinch of kosher salt
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup whole-wheat flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
2 large eggs, at room temperature
1 1/2 cups whole milk, at room temperature
1/4 cup sour cream, plus more for serving
1 stick (1/2 cup) unsalted butter, melted
1/4 cup capers, drained and rinsed
3 tablespoons chopped fresh chives, plus more for garnish
4 ounces thinly sliced smoked salmon

Steps:

For the sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together the sour cream, lemon zest, lemon juice and salt. Set aside.
For the waffles: Preheat a waffle iron according to the manufacturer's directions.
In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, whole-wheat flour, baking powder and salt. Form a well in the center and add the eggs, milk and sour cream. Starting from the inside, whisk together the wet ingredients, slowly incorporating the dry ingredients. When almost fully incorporated, drizzle in the butter and whisk until just combined.
Scoop enough batter into the waffle iron to fill three-quarters of the way. Sprinkle with 1 1/2 teaspoons capers and 1 teaspoon chives. Close and cook until golden brown and crispy, about 5 minutes. Remove the waffle and divide in pieces along the marked lines. Top with a few slices of smoked salmon, a dollop of the lemon sour cream and some chives. Repeat with the remaining ingredients to make more waffles.

SMOKED SALMON WAFFLES

Categories main-dish

Time 40m

Yield 6 (6 1/2-inch round) waffles

Number Of Ingredients 11

Ingredients

4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) unsalted butter
1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons double-acting baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 cups milk
2 large eggs
3 1/2 ounces smoked salmon, dried
1 red onion, peeled and finely diced
6 tablespoons fresh dill
Softened cream cheese and finely chopped scallions or creme fraiche (or sour cream) and salmon caviar, for topping

Steps:

Preheat your waffle iron. If you want to hold the finished waffles until serving time, preheat your oven to 200 degrees.
Melt the butter and reserve. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and pepper. In another bowl, whisk together the milk and eggs until well blended. Pour the liquid ingredients over the dry ingredients and whisk gently to combine. Fold in the salmon, onion, dill, and melted butter.
Lightly butter or spray the grids or your iron, if needed. Brush or spray the grids again only if subsequent waffles stick.
Spoon out 1/2 cup of the batter (or the amount recommended by your waffle maker's instructions) onto the hot iron. Spread the batter evenly over the grids with a metal spatula or wooden spoon, stopping right before the edge. Close the lid and bake until golden and crisp. Serve immediately or keep the waffles, in a single layer, on a rack in the preheated oven while you make the rest of the batch.
Serve with either a scoop of cream cheese and a sprinkling of chopped scallions, or a generous spoonful of creme fraiche (or sour cream) and some salmon caviar.

Tips:

For crispy waffles, use a well-seasoned waffle iron and preheat it according to the manufacturer's instructions.
Use buttermilk instead of regular milk for a tangy flavor. You can make your own buttermilk by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to 1 cup of regular milk and letting it sit for 5 minutes.
Add some grated cheese, chopped herbs, or cooked bacon to the waffle batter for a savory twist.
If you don't have a waffle iron, you can cook the waffles in a greased skillet over medium heat. Just be sure to flip them halfway through cooking.
Serve the waffles with your favorite toppings, such as butter, syrup, fruit, or whipped cream.

Conclusion:

Cornmeal waffles are a delicious and versatile breakfast or brunch dish. They are easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With a few simple tips, you can make perfect cornmeal waffles every time. Enjoy!
