Waffle
A waffle is a leavened batter or dough cooked between two plates, patterned to give a characteristic size, shape and surface impression. There are many variations based on the type of waffle iron and recipe used. Waffles are eaten throughout the world, particularly in Belgium, France, Netherlands, Germany, Poland, Hungary, Scandinavia, Hong Kong, and the United States, with over a dozen regional varieties in Belgium alone.〔("Les Gaufres Belges" ).

==Etymology==
The word "waffle" first appears in the English language in 1725: "Waffles. Take flower, cream..." It is directly derived from the Dutch ''wafel'', which itself derives from the Middle Dutch ''wafele''.〔("Waffle" ), The Merriam-Webster Unabridged Dictionary〕
While the Middle Dutch ''wafele'' is first attested to at the end of the 13th century, it is preceded by the French ''walfre'' in 1185; both are considered to share the same Frankish etymological root ''wafla''.〔("Gaufre" ), Centre National de Ressources Textuelles et Lexicales〕 Depending on the context of the use of ''wafla'', it either means honeycomb or cake.〔
Alternate spellings throughout contemporary and medieval Europe include waffe, wafre, wafer, wâfel, waufre, iauffe, gaufre, goffre, gauffre, wafe, waffel, wåfe, wāfel, wafe, vaffel, and våffla.〔:fr:Gaufre (cuisine)〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】 Bulletin de la Société liégeoise de littérature wallonne, Volumes 34-35 )〕
