With any luck she either froze to death in the parking lot, or was devoured by the pack of feral cats that roam the lot all night. Or both.

KITTIES!!!

waffles are basically fried, cooking in oil coated metal, so like most fried foods they have more sugar and fat in the batter to give them that nice crispy texture.

A lot of people will use the same batter for both pancakes and waffles, but you really shouldn't

How's the dominatri-er, female prison officer training going?

I'm glad to see you're still here Kara, but if you think you've run into SC's already, just wait until you get placed in the prison. My oldest son is a detention officer at the Wilmot Road correctional facility outside Tucson, AZ. He's a big guy and still gets the breed of SC that normal working people never get to see.

Good luck and thanks for hanging around.

Kara! Great to see that you're still around

its something about the thickness of the batter pancakes fluff up and a flapjack is a pancake with thicker batter so its more dense and less fluffy and a waffle is essentially no "Fullfing agent" (i dont know food chemistry so i wont begin to speculate on what makes it fluffy)

[Horsetuna]

I'm told that waffles dont 'puff up' as much. If you put pancake batterin a WI, it foams out. but waffle batter doesnt as much.

waffles hold more butter

and wafflecones, well, they're just awesome...

[monolayth]

what is sad is that i get the pancake vs. waffle question a lot at work.

[Lingering Grin]

and pour your pancake batter in the waffle-maker... perfect!

... that actually works

SM: This has been bothering me for awhile.
ME: Hmm?
SM: What's the difference between pancakes and waffles?
ME: ....

By all means sir. Go ahead and stick your pancackes in the toaster, and pour your pancake batter in the waffle-maker... perfect!

OT: I put oil (actually, bacon drippings, if I have it) in pancake batter. It's pretty much the same. The main difference I see between waffles and pancakes is between Belgian waffles and pancakes. Belgian waffle batter is usually sweeter and cakier.

Kara, I was just thinking about you yesterday. I hope things are going well for you. Are you getting plenty of hours at the grocery?

[Flood]

I don't know about 'from scratch', but when making the batter from mix, Waffle batter calls for oil where Pancake batter doesn't.

Since this thread took a serious turn off of the subject, what's the difference between pancakes and flapjacks?


Kara, glad to see you've survived the scapegoating.
