"As I ate the oysters with their strong taste of the sea and their faint metallic taste that the cold white wine washed away, leaving only the sea taste and the succulent texture, and as I drank their cold liquid from each shell and washed it down with the crisp taste of the wine, I lost the empty feeling and began to be happy, and to make plans."--Ernest Hemingway

Ingredients:  
2 cups sifted flour
2 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. salt
4 large eggs, separated
2 Tbsp. sugar
1/2 tsp. vanilla extract
4 Tbsp. unsalted butter, melted
2 cups milk, 2% or whole

Directions:
Directions:
Preheat waffle iron. In a medium bowl, sift together flour, baking powder and salt. Set aside. In a second bowl, using a wooden spoon, bet together the egg yolks and sugar until sugar is completely dissolved and eggs have turned a pale yellow. Add the vanilla extract, melted butter and milk. Whisk to combine.

Combine the egg mixture with the flour mixture and whisk just until blended. Do not over mix - there will be lumps.

In a small bowl, beat the egg whites with an electric mixer until soft peaks form, about 1 minute. Using a rubber spatula, gently fold the egg whites into the waffle batter. Do not over mix - again.

Coat waffle iron with cooking spray and pour batter onto iron. Do not over fill. Cook until golden brown.

Personal Notes:
Personal Notes:
I cannot take credit for this recipe, since it belongs to Emeril Lagasse. However, I tried many recipes and do find these to be the tastiest.

I freeze the leftovers after cooking, then defrost in the microwave for one minute, then put them in the toaster.
