My Mom's recipe calls for vanilla, not cardamom. These are a completely different thing than the ordinary Norwegian waffles we all know and love. I roll them out to fit the waffle iron.Dough needs to be chilled to enable this, and extra flour on the board helps. Never saw them small before.

I do know that they usually serve their waffles cold and spread with jam or brown cheese. Heart shaped waffles are the norm. My daughter-in-law even made them at a volleyball tournament and they were a popular snack. I looked in my "Norwegian Cooking" book which noted that you should place the finished waffles on a rack to keep them crisp. Do you think they mean "crisp" waffles? They serve pancakes the same way, cold and folded in half with jam or cheese. Even on the ferries, "svelle" were a popular snack - basically a cold pancake, thinner than ours and folded in half with a filling in between. Coffee shops also featured them.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6947422983613362681.post-78241939064042044272010-01-18T17:38:42.356-05:002010-01-18T17:38:42.356-05:00Haven't encountered these specifically, but th...Haven't encountered these specifically, but they look like Belgian Waffles (though they are probably not).
