A Touch of Nostalgia and Historical Delight
The Severin waffle maker not only brings a touch of nostalgia to your kitchen but also a hint of historical delight. The history of waffle makers is as rich and warm as the golden squares themselves.
Waffles have a long and storied past that dates back to the Middle Ages in Europe. The earliest known waffles were made in the monasteries of France and Belgium. These medieval waffles were more like communion wafers, made from a simple batter of grain flour and water, cooked between two metal plates over an open fire.
By the 16th century, they had become a common street food in France and the Netherlands. Vendors would sell them from carts, offering sweet and savory variations to passersby. The introduction of ingredients like eggs, milk, and honey transformed waffles from simple fare into the delectable treat we know today.
In the 18th century, waffles crossed the Atlantic to America and became a beloved part of the American breakfast tradition. Thomas Jefferson is often credited with popularizing waffles in the United States. After returning from France, he brought back a waffle iron and introduced his friends and family to this European treat.
