Important Safeguards
When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed, including the following:
1 Read all instructions carefully.
2 Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handles or knobs.
3 To protect against risk of fire, electric shock and injury to persons, DO NOT
IMMERSE CORD, PLUG OR APPLIANCE in water or other liquid.
Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children.
4 Unplug unit from wall when not in use and before cleaning. To disconnect,
grasp plug, and pull from wall. Never yank on cord.
5 Allow cooling before putting on or taking off parts.
6 Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug or after the
appliance malfunctions or is dropped or damaged in any manner. Return the appliance to an authorized service facility for examination, repair, or electrical or mechanical adjustment in order to avoid hazard.
7 The use of accessory attachments not recommended or sold by the appliance
manufacturer may cause fire, electric shock, or injury to persons
8 Do not use outdoors.
9 Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter or touch hot surfaces,
including the stove.
10 Do not allow appliance to come into contact with any materials that are
flammable such as draperies, walls, etc.
11 Do not place on or near a hot gas or electric burner or in a heated oven.
12 When finished baking waffles, set the heat setting to lowest setting and
remove plug from wall outlet.
13 Do not use this appliance for other than intended use.
14 Do not clean with metal scouring pads; pieces can break off the pad and
touch electrical parts, creating a risk of electrical shock. This appliance is for household use only.
Save These Instructions
Notice: A short electrical cord has been provided to reduce the hazards resulting
from entanglement or tripping over a longer cord. There are longer extension cords available from a variety of retail stores and may be used if care is exercised in their use. If a long extension cord is used please note that the marked electrical rating of the extension cord should be at least equal to the electrical rating of the waffle appliance.
Care should be taken to avoid cords hanging over the edge of a counter or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or animals or tripped over. If your appliance has a grounded 3-prong plug you must use the compatible 3-wire extension cord.
This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). As a safety feature, this plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to defeat this safety feature.
Before Your First Use
Before using for the first time remove all packaging materials. Wash the waffle plates according to the “Care & Cleaning” section of this manual. During first use you may notice slight smoking or odor. This is normal with any heating appliance and will not reoccur after multiple uses. It is recommended that you turn your Waffle Baker to MAX and run until all smoke and / or odor has dissipated. This will take approximately 10 – 15 minutes. This does not affect the safety or your appliance.

Wolfgang Puck,
owner of the famous Spago restaurants and one of the most influential chef-restauranteurs in America, is credited with reviving California’s rich culinary heritage. His cooking innovations, a result of
blending fresh California ingredients with his classical French techniques, are enjoyed by world leaders, stars and fellow chefs alike. He established other trend-setting restaurants like Postrio in San Francisco, Chinois on Main in Santa Monica, Granita, Vert and Trattoria del Lupo. Home chefs can also share Mr. Puck’s talents through his cookbooks and, of course, through his appliances!

Using Your Waffle Baker
1 Extend the retractable legs as shown in
figures 1 through 3 and place the drip tray below the plates as shown in figure 4.
2 Close the Waffle Baker and plug into a 120
volt outlet. You will see the red power light go on, indicating that the Waffle Baker has power and is preheating. The red power light will remain on until you unplug the unit.
3 Turn the control knob to your desired shade
setting. When the proper baking temperature is reached the green light will go on. Initially it will take about 3 - 5 minutes to reach baking temperature. Once preheated, additional cycle times will be faster.
4 Before the first waffle of the day, use a pastry
brush to lightly coat the top and bottom waffle grids with a vegetable oil or melted shortening. You’ll find the spray shortenings work well for this purpose as well.
5 Ladle just enough batter to fill the lower
waffle plate so that the peak areas of the plate are covered (about 1 cup). If necessary, use a spatula to spread the batter in to the corners of grid.

Care & Cleaning
1 Always unplug the Waffle Baker and allow to completely cool before cleaning.
2 After cooling, any excess crumbs or oils can be wiped away with a paper
towel, damp sponge, or with the cleaning brush included with your unit. Do not attempt to disassemble appliance for cleaning.
3 Wipe the top and bottom housings with soft cloth. A little metal polish
suitable for stainless steel may be occasionally used on the stainless steel housing. Do not use any abrasive scouring pad or steel wool, as this will damage the housing finish.
4 Never immerse appliance in water or any liquid. Do not place in dishwasher.
5 Do not use metal utensils, which can damage the non- stick surface, use only
wood, plastic, or nylon utensils to avoid damaging the non- stick surface.

Using Your Waffle Baker
6 Close the baker and rotate the handle 180º
clockwise as shown in figures 5 and 6. It will take approximately 5 minutes per waffle. To remove the waffles, rotate the unit 180º counter - clockwise and lift the handle straight up (see figure 7). Opening too soon will cause unbaked waffles to split, and make them difficult to remove. If you find you want your waffle a little darker, close the lid and leave them for as long as you desire. There is no need to rotate the baker a second time. The green light will cycle on and off during the baking cycle indicating that the unit is maintaining the selected temperature.
7 Remove waffles from the grid with a
non-metallic utensil being careful that you do not touch the upper plate which is still hot.
8 For best results for your next waffle, wait for the
green ready light to illuminate before baking another batch. Pour batter and proceed again from steps #4 through #7.
9 When you are finished baking, simply turn the
shade selector to the left and unplug from the wall outlet. The red power light will go off.
10 After cooling, the waffle plates should be
cleaned according to the section “Care & Cleaning” of this manual.
11 Your Waffle Baker can be easily stored by folding
the retractable feet in, turning the Waffle Baker plates 90º clockwise and folding the handle down. See figure 8.

Sourdough Starter for Waffles
Makes about 4 cups
INGREDIENTS
3 cups all - purpose flour 2 cups nonfat milk 1 cup plain yogurt 1 small potato, peeled and finely grated
METHOD
1 In a medium bowl, combine all ingredients until smooth. Cover with clean
towel and set in a warm place until the batter begins to bubble and has a somewhat pleasant sour smell, about 24 hours.
2 Place in a covered container and refrigerate for at least 3 days before using.
TIP
Sourdough starter can be kept going indefinitely if “fed” properly. When you take out 1 1/2 cups of the starter, replace with 1 1/2 cups of flour and 1 1/2 or 2 cups milk. This should be done at least every two weeks and the starter kept refrigerated in a covered container. However, if not “fed” properly, the starter may acquire a pinkish color and should be discarded and a new starter developed.

Introduction
Walking into a home filled with the warm smells of coffee brewing, sausage patties sizzling in the pan, and waffles baking makes one feel instantly comfortable. For many people, breakfast is the most important meal of the day, and often the only hot one eaten. It would be difficult to dash out of the house with nothing more than a doughnut under the belt if there was a tempting bowl of granola or a stack of hot pancakes waiting on the table.
For me, brunch is a pleasurable way to entertain on any given Saturday, Sunday or holiday. Served late morning into early afternoon, it combines breakfast and lunch and is a leisurely experience, casual and easy. Since my kitchen at home is warm and inviting, not filled with trendy electrical appliances, I find my friends like to congregate in the kitchen.
Usually, I prepare a few dishes, set them out on the buffet, and allow people to help themselves. If I’m making pancakes or waffles, I have the batter ready, the griddle or waffle iron heating, and spoon the batter out on demand. Sometimes I fold berries into the batter, other times I fill my nicest bowl with an assortment of warm poached fruit.
And to make the brunch even more festive, I like to serve chilled champagne poured over fresh orange juice or peach juice.
