Directions for: Smoked Salmon and Waffles
Ingredients
Saucecup sour cream
tsp lemon zest, plus 1 tsp lemon juice
Pinch of kosher salt
Waffles1 cups all-purpose flour
cup whole-wheat flour
1 Tbsp baking powder
tsp kosher salt
2 large eggs, at room temperature
1 cups whole milk, at room temperature
cup sour cream, plus more for serving
1 stick (1/2 cup) unsalted butter, melted
cup capers, drained and rinsed
3 Tbsp chopped fresh chives, plus more for garnish
4 oz thinly sliced smoked salmon
Directions
Sauce1. In a small bowl, whisk together the sour cream, lemon zest, lemon juice and salt. Set aside.
Waffles1. Preheat a waffle iron according to the manufacturer's directions.
2. In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, whole-wheat flour, baking powder and salt. Form a well in the center and add the eggs, milk and sour cream. Starting from the inside, whisk together the wet ingredients, slowly incorporating the dry ingredients. When almost fully incorporated, drizzle in the butter and whisk until just combined.
3. Scoop enough batter into the waffle iron to fill three-quarters of the way. Sprinkle with 1 1/2 teaspoons capers and 1 teaspoon chives. Close and cook until golden brown and crispy, about 5 minutes. Remove the waffle and divide in pieces along the marked lines. Top with a few slices of smoked salmon, a dollop of the lemon sour cream and some chives. Repeat with the remaining ingredients to make more waffles.
