This is the best Belgian waffle recipe I've ever tried! It beats restaurant waffles any day of the week!

The Very Best Waffles

all-purpose flour

cornstarch

cinnamon

nutmeg

baking powder

baking soda

buttermilk

milk

vegetable oil

sugar

vanilla extract

Heat the oven to 200°F and heat up the waffle iron.

Mix the flour, cornstarch, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, baking powder, and baking soda in a medium bowl. Measure the buttermilk, milk, and vegetable oil in a measuring cup and stir in the egg yolk. Set aside.

In another bowl, beat the egg white almost to soft peaks. Sprinkle in the sugar and continue to beat until the peaks are firm and glossy. Beat in the vanilla.

Pour the buttermilk mixture into the dry ingredients and whisk until just mixed. Drop the whipped egg white onto the batter in dollops and fold in with a spatula until just incorporated.

Pour the batter onto the hot waffle iron (My Belgian waffle maker takes 2 1/2 ice cream scoops of batter, but your mileage may vary) and cook until the waffle is crisp and brown.

Set the waffle directly on the oven rack to keep it warm and crisp. Repeat with the remaining batter, holding the waffles in the oven (don't stack them). When all the waffles are cooked, serve immediately.

If you&#039;d like to steam zucchini using your Instant Pot or pressure cooker, this is the easiest way to get a side dish ready that isn&#039;t mushy!

Instant Pot Zucchini

lb Zucchini (Cut in quarters and ⅓” slices)

Salt

water

Put 1 cup of cold water in the pan of the Instant Pot. Place the steamer basket inside the Instant Pot.

Toss chopped zucchini with salt and place in the steamer basket.

Close the lid and close the sealing valve.

Turn the Instant Pot to steam mode for 2 minutes.

Allow the Instant Pot to go through the cooking cycle and do a quick release. (The total time to get to steam, cook, and release steam was about 13 minutes)

Carefully open the lid and remove the zucchini. It is ready to serve.

Optional: garnish with a drizzle of olive oil, salt, and freshly cracked pepper. If you like spicy food, you could add some crushed red pepper.

Season the lamb shanks all over with salt and pepper.

Heat the canola oil in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat.

Sear 2 lamb shanks at a time until a dark brown crust forms on one side, 3-5 minutes. Sear the other sides of the meat until evenly browned. Remove the shanks from the pan and set aside. Remove all but 2 tablespoons of fat from the pan.

Add the minced carrots, onion, celery, and minced garlic to the pot. Season with salt and pepper, and cook until the vegetables are deeply caramelized, 15-20 minutes.

Add the tomato paste and cook until it browns and is aromatic, 5 minutes.

Add the red wine and scrape the bottom of the pot to release the flavorful browned bits stuck to the bottom. Cook until the wine reduces by half and thickens slightly, 3 minutes.

Add the chicken stock, orange juice, lemon juice, rosemary, thyme, and bay leaves. Stir and bring to a boil.

Return the lamb shanks to the Dutch oven, cover, and place in the oven for 2 hours, turning the shanks halfway through, until the lamb is tender and the braising liquid has thickened.

About halfway through the lamb cooking time, add the oblique-cut carrots, Brussels sprouts, red pearl onions, and whole garlic cloves to a baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Toss to combine. Roast in the oven for 1 hour, or until the vegetables are tender.

Right after the potatoes finish boiling, drain and transfer to a large bowl. Season with plenty of salt and a bit of white pepper, and mash the potatoes until as smooth as possible.

Fold in the butter, sour cream, and heavy cream until smooth and light.

Make the citrus gremolata: In a small bowl, combine the parsley, lemon zest, flaky salt, garlic, chives, horseradish, and orange zest.

To serve, scoop mashed potatoes onto a plate. Add roasted vegetables and a lamb shank. Top with the braising liquid and citrus gremolata.
