American
waffles are made from a batter leavened with baking powder. They are
usually served as a sweet breakfast food, topped with butter and
various syrups, but are also found in many different savory dishes,
such as fried chicken and waffles or topped with kidney stew. They may
also be served as desserts, topped with ice cream and various other
toppings. They are generally denser and thinner than the Belgian
waffle.
Waffles were first introduced to North America in 1620 by Pilgrims who
brought the method from Holland.
Thomas Jefferson brought a waffle iron from France, and waffle frolics
or parties became popular in the late eighteenth century.
