Last year during our holiday at Orlando (Disney \ Sea World etc), my family enjoyed eating waffles for breakfast.

After visiting the local Publix supermarket on a shopping trip, we returned to the UK with a box of Aunt Jemina's waffle mix.

After consuming the contents of the box, we have tried various UK ready made pancake mixes in our waffle maker, but we don't achieve a similiar consistency \ texture \ taste on the UK sourced mixes.

Can anyone recommend a recipe for a homemade waffle mix?

Apologies to the BB purists for posting this OT, don't worry I won't start collecting IH tractors next (or road rollers).

Well, I can't reveal the family secret recipe (mainly because there isn't one), but here's some that you can look over. These days, the mixes sometimes have ingredients that the home cook can't buy that make all the difference. I doubt that is the situation with waffle mixes though.

I do make a mean pancake. Just dump stuff together which makes it sort of hard to tell someone else how to do it exactly right. It does help get me through the babysitting days when I have to get the kids to eat something. Some more of those coming up soon, wife is traveling to China to adopt "our" little girl.

David Wills---

Hell----eating always takes priority over working on Cats (or anything else)----most people like to do it two or three times a day.🙄

My wife uses Kroger "Original" pancake and waffle mix----straight out of the box---just add water. But its a funny situation----the pancakes always seem to taste better when the grandaughters mix them up (always a big project when they are here).😊 I just looked on a box----and it only says distributed by Kroger Company (large grocery chain here in U.S.)---but its probably packaged by Pillsbury or one of other large food suppliers.

Now that we've got CC up in the kitchen----maybe we can get some good homemade ice cream recipes out of him----what with him being a dairy man. I hear rumors that he has two or three Jersey cows that will even give chocolate milk.😄

This is a good home made non-cook ice cream recipe. 4 eggs,1-1/2 cups of sugar, 2 small pkg. instant pudding, 1/2 tsp. salt, 1-1/2 tsp. vanilla, 1-13 oz. can of evaporated milk.Mix together well & put in a 4 qt. freezer & add milk to fill line or 2/3 full & run the freezer till hard. Peanut butter added gives it a good flavor too if you so desire. Was my wife,s recipe & we made it quite often years ago till she passed on.

SJ,

That's a good one. Nothing better than home made vanilla icecream. When you get a headache from eating it, that's a good sign (so good you want to eat fast, and so cold it hurts when you do).

I like the cooked custard recipe, but it takes an extra day or at least several extra hours because you have to chill it back down before freezing it.

DD, no chocolate cows here, but lots and lots of cream and protein. Cream is usually the most expensive part of an icecream recipe. In the Southeastern US, cream usually gets short in the summer due to a combination of increased ice cream sales and decreased milk production. I remember 20 years ago when it was very unusual to have to send a tanker to Arizona/NewMexico to get loads of cream this time of year. These days, a lot of just plain milk comes into Alabama and Georgia from the Southwest US just to supply the fluid milk needs.

CC I grew up on a farm but we only had just a few cows & sold a little raw milk to neighbors but we raised other things like green tomatoes & some berries & an apple orchard & sold the products. We made our own butter & churned it by hand with the old dasher type churn & I still have it here as an antique.Boy that buttermilk was so good from the churn not like this stuff you buy at the store & it had small bits of butter floating in it.Them were the good old days but just memories.

We get buckweat mix during deer season (late November) but it's only available during that time at the local stores around Punxsutawney,PA. Can't remember the name. We used to get it from the Big Run Milling Co. 2miles from our camp but they're long out of business. Some people have a hard time eating buckweat pancakes since they're gray! Must be pre 1931 like Cat.

SJ,

Not too many folks will ever get a taste for buttermilk anymore. When I was in Russia a few years ago, I bought a carton of milk to try. It was cultured milk, not sweet, which was quite a surprise! Tasted a lot like buttermilk and wasn't bad once I got over the shock. It's like they always joke, "How can you tell the buttermilk has gone bad?" It's already sour anyway

My brother and his son run a cheese plant nearby and at times they have churned the cream that is skimmed from the whey off the cheese curd. Depending one the culture they use that day to "set" the cheese, the whey isn't too bad to taste, but the butter always has a good flavor compared to the sweet cream kind you buy in the store these days. Probably more like you remember.
