• If you want waffles right away: Mix all ingredients in a large bowl and allow to rest while your waffle iron heats up. Then pour and cook as usual.
• Cooking time: cooking time in the waffle iron will depend on the temperature that you're pre-heating your iron to, and will also differ model to model. Try out the cooking time with your first waffle, and adjust. 
• Making crispy waffles: If you want crispier waffles, allow them to cook in the waffle iron for a little longer. However, watch out for burning. 
• Use a Professional Grade Waffle Iron: Invest in a good-quality waffle iron to achieve the best crispiness and texture.
• Overnight Fermentation: Let the sourdough batter ferment overnight for a deeper, tangier flavor and better texture.
• Avoid Overfilling: Use the right amount of batter for your waffle iron to prevent overflow and ensure even cooking.
• Cook Until Golden Brown: Cook the waffles until they are a deep golden brown for maximum crispiness. This may take a bit longer than usual, but the result is worth it.
• Keep Waffles Warm: If making multiple batches, keep the cooked waffles warm in a single layer on a wire rack in a low oven (around 200°F) to maintain their crispiness.
• Adjust Consistency: If the batter is too thick, add a bit of milk or water to achieve the right consistency. It should be pourable but not runny. If it's too runny, add additional flour.
• Serve Immediately: Waffles are best enjoyed right off the iron for maximum crispiness. Serve them immediately with your favorite toppings.

Storage

Refrigeration

• Cool Completely: Allow the waffles to cool completely on a wire rack to prevent them from becoming soggy.
• Store in an Airtight Container: Place the cooled leftover waffles in an airtight container or resealable plastic bag.
• Refrigerate: Store in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Freezing

• Cool Completely: Let the waffles cool completely on a wire rack.
• Flash Freeze: Lay the waffles in a single layer on a baking sheet and freeze until solid (about 1-2 hours). This prevents them from sticking together.
• Store in Freezer Bags: Transfer the frozen waffles to a resealable plastic freezer bag or airtight container.
• Label and Date: Label the bag with the date for reference. The waffles can be stored in the freezer for up to 3 months.

Reheating

• Toaster: Toast the waffles in a toaster or toaster oven until heated through and crispy.
• Oven: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Place the waffles on a baking sheet and heat for about 10 minutes or until warmed through and crispy.
• From Freezer:
• Toaster: Toast the frozen waffles directly in a toaster until heated through and crispy.
• Oven: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Place the frozen waffles on a baking sheet and heat for about 15 minutes or until warmed through and crispy.
