We never heated them up on top of our tea cup, we ate it while drinking the tea. And you are right, in the last 10 years they have become popular (and expensive) in the U.S. Thank you so much for sharing your videos, I am a very visual learner, so these help me so much and bring back so many memories.
I live in Sweden and work with 2 dutch guys, the first time they brought stroopwafels to work and introduced me to them, I put one on top of my mug as soon as they had poured up my coffee, and they said "oh, so you've had these before?" because they said that that's what dutch people usually do. one of them are from the north part and the other the south part. so probably not a local thing.
I just stumbled onto your channel today! My father immigrated from the Netherlands with his family after the war - he was 5. We lost our heritage as my grandfather insisted we become Canadian. I love the recipes, the detailed instructions and the care you bring to each recipe. I can't thank you enough.
My wife, daughter and I moved to Haarlem for a year in 2017. Though I sometimes wish we didn't move back to the states, making and enjoying some of my favorite Dutch treats every fall and winter since returning has helped the Netherlands feel a little closer. I hope to be back someday, but for now we will rely on oliebollen, krentenbollen, and now stroopwafels using your recipe. Fantastically thorough and concise tutorial. Heel erg bedankt!
I made them and they taste so good! Stroopwafels are awesome. Ever since we had hot stroopwafels in Amsterdam I've been trying out different recipes. This is a keeper! I also find when slicing them I wait till they cool down a bit and then they don't fall apart on me lol! That's probably the hardest part in making them 😊 Thanks so much for sharing this!
I learn dutch since 4 maanden and it is really cool to not just see the language ,but also the food people country and music. I am so fascinated of that language so I WILL keep learning!!
i havd a facebook friend in The Netherlands who introduced me to stroopwafels, i ordered a tin and not long afterwards, I saw them in a package in the checkout line at Walgreens! I guess I had been overlooking them because I never knew what they were m.
Good day to you! Being an American and not well traveled, I'd never heard of these before today. A generous neighbor gave us many oranges from their orchard. I want to do something to show appreciation for her generosity and her husband said she loves Dutch food, as she's Dutch & Stroopwafels were here favorite. I would love to be able to make this for her as a thank you so I searched online for recipes. Your video was so informative and easy - hee he - to follow. I appreciate how you show us the actual mixing process. I hope I can succeed at making them for her. My town was founded by Dutch folks, hence, I have many Dutch neighbors and our community is very generous. I'm going to reach out to the town to see if anyone has a Palmer waffle maker they wouldn't mind loaning me. I really hope to do these right. Thank you again for sharing and I will let you know how they come out. :)
I like stroopwafels but ‘n speculaasje, daar vecht ik voor!! Met ‘n kop koffie!! I did read somewhere, that you have to warm up your stroopwafel on your cup of coffee!! Never knew that!
Hey Toine, thanks for putting up these videos. I moved to the US in 1994, and my dad is Dutch and my mom is Belgian. I understand what you mean when you say you started missing "real" food almost immediately after you got here. I love cooking (Belgian, Dutch and Indonesian,... my grandmother was an Indonesian chef). Where do you live?,... it would be awesome if you're in Arizona ;-) Keep up the good work,... and maybe one of these days we'll get to meet :-)
I was afraid of that. Well, I'll keep following you on RU-vid, and if you ever come over this way,... please let us know, we have a guest house in Gold Canyon, AZ that is open for friends and family :-)
Geweldig! Ik zag je post eerder deze week op FB en gelijk al een Palmer besteld en is vandaag afgeleverd. Nu nog even wachten op de keukenstroop bestelling en dan ga ik ze maken. Dank je!
Hoi karin, Ik wil ook zo'n stroopwafel apparaat kopen op Amazon. Is het zo eenvoudig dat de stekker in het Nederlandse stopcontact past ? Of kan je het ook in Belgie of Nederland kopen ? Ik hoor graag je mening. Alvast bedankt..
The heating over a cup of coffee is probably geographical feature. My friend who spent quite some time in Groningen told me already 20 years ago that this is the right way to do it. When I was in Nijmegen, can't say quite the same area, this was also seen as traditional. So, I don't know. :) As to the iron, every time I was in the Netherlands I just could not find a normal, gas-heated double-sided waffle maker, with which you don't even have to cut - just snap it open really quickly and the waffle splits from the steam inside - just seal them with the syrup, as the legend has it the original scenario was, and then scrape off when they cooled down a bit.. Saw these used once in a Christmas Market in Prague, prepared by the Dutch guy from Driebergen (?), smiled and joked all the way through but refused to sell one at the end, and he had like five :))
Thank you for the recipe, i love these. Living in sweden i'm lucky there are shops that sell them in 10 packs (i have to stop myself buying them as much as i'd like to). Looking forward to trying to make my own though. Funny about the warming up, i never knew that that was a thing at all, until i flew with KLM in october (they fly from my home town) and decided to buy some with my coffee on the flight and then reading the package of the waffles, it said to put them on top of your warm drink to warm them up. so i tried, was okay, didn't make much difference. i suppose a tiny little cup of airline coffee wasn't warm enough :P but it's funny to hear this wasn't a thing in the netherlands in the past, and now it's printed instructions on the stroopwafel package (in dutch and english).
I just found your channel this morning looking for gourmetten ideas. What a treasure trove of recipes ❤️ We finished our annual stroopwafel bake this weekend and we did 1000. I’m glad to see you weigh your dough also. My grandma thought I was crazy, but I like them uniform in size & baking time in the iron.
The Palmer cookie iron I couldn't find in The Netherlands so I bought a The Windmill Stroopwafelijzer, cast iron and flat so suitable for pretty much any stove or bbq. I haven't had time yet to test it but when I do I'll follow your instructions, before I start experimenting :)
I see one or two on Amazon, but you’re right … it’s hard to see if they are legit. Try the Palmer, it’s been holding up well for me, I’ve made hundreds: www.amazon.com/dp/B000NRR7XI?tag=toineskitchen-20&linkCode=ogi&th=1&psc=1
I did not have any when I visited Albert Cuypmarkt but I think it was a bit too early for it to have really got going. I had misjudged our schedule a bit, so we had to get moving! I did, however, watch someone through a shop window somewhere up the road from Van Stapele Koekmakerij cut one open and remembering saying to my wife "no way I would do that!" - well, maybe I can now :) (Van Stapele was another place we did not have time to try, so that's on my "still to do" list as well!)
Funny that you mention that putting a stroopwafel on your cup of coffee is foreign to you. At home we've always done it. We also wrapped amandelstaaf in aluminium foil and place it on top of our wood furnace in the living room. That stuff is the best when it's hot
I think that putting the stroopwafel on top of a tea or coffee mug is new. I asked my almos 90 year old mom and she never saw this in NL before. I suspect that the 2 large Dutch industrial manufacturers have used this idea to open into new markets. Here in Spain they are called “tapatés” which translates into tea covers. They have become incredibly popular now everywhere and I think it’s just a great marketing job by distinguishing this cookie from all the others.
I use chef choice ice conemaker and that is working well. It comes with a temperature setting. A pizzele maker works also but you donot have the stroopwafels pattern
Nice recipe. Thanks . I found the RU-vid video on My Dutch Heritage Facebook page. I like alot of cinnamon so I added a bit more. Found out that I was a bit short on golden syrup so it go a bit more treacle. Next time will have the right amount of ingredients required. I used a cheap waffle iron that I got off ebay in Australia. About 1 minute was the cook time . Great fun to make . Ps. Tried to post this comment on the website but it kept failing. Keep up the lovely recipes
This looks delish, I wish we could smell the awesomeness… I most definitely put my stroopwafels on my hot drink, of course when I was young microwaves didn’t exist 😊 Toine, I love your channel, I hope you get settled in a new house soon so we can enjoy new videos. Fijne feestdagen 🎁✨
Hello! i was wondering of this tastes exactly like the stroopwafel kraam in the markt. I tried out many recipies and they all didnt tasted like the ones in the markt

Very well done, Toine! I watched your video with great interest! And send it to my son who also lives in the US. I am Dutch and live in the Netherlands again.
Hi Toine. I look up On how to make stroopwafles from several vdo. I like the way you guide e.g. how to cut slide waffle, what can find close to keukenstroop. Thank you
@@ToinesKitchen Hi Toine, good evening! I dropped by supermarket and got stroopwafle that import from Holland, there are two flavors….original and the one with chocolate coating on waffle. I just wonder, in Holland…are there a variety of stroopwafle flavours? Thank you and happy weekend.
Ik heb ze recentelijk voor het eerst zelf gemaakt volgens jouw recept, ze zijn echt geweldig. Maar de enige vraag die ik heb is: Vet je het ijzer na elke bal weer opnieuw in of alleen aan het begin 1x?
Thanks for the video. I'm moving to the Netherlands when I retire from my job in 3 1/2 years. I want to learn everything I can about the Dutch culture including cooking Dutch food. I just received my Palmer Belgian cookie iron and I want to begin using it this weekend. Also I mill all my own flour. What is a good alternative flour to all purpose flour?
Hi Toine, Thank you for your recipe! I've being making stroopwafels, but it seemed that after a few weeks, the syrup get ' sucked' in and the stroopwafel is dry - what am I doing wrong?
Few questions: - Make sure they are completely cooled off before storing them in an airtight container. - Store them in a cool, dry place. - Make sure the syrup isn't too thin when putting it on the waffle. - Make sure you add enough syrup when putting it on the waffle.
Goedendag. Ik neem even aan dat je ook Nederlands spreekt. Ik zag in je je video de Palmer Electric Belgian Cookie Iron Thin staan . Ik wil deze ook hebben maar zag dat de stekker US was. Weet jij ook waar ik dit apparaat kan kopen voor Nederland 220 volt. Ik hoor graag van je en succes met je video's.
Ik spreek inderdaad Nederlands.... de Palmer is alleen in de VS verkrijgbaar. Maar, ik vond deze op bol.com: www.bol.com/nl/nl/p/stroopwafelijzer/9300000025298708/ www.bol.com/nl/nl/p/cloer-stroopwafelijzer-1641s-voor-stroopwafels/9300000143959898/?bltgh=j2AJRms8XWsc9kHj-WpMCw.ld3p-27w8S3zSowKoRdAvA_0_4.5.ProductTitle Ik heb geen ervaring met deze, maar de eerste is een professionele, en de tweede is een stuk voordeliger :D
Have you ever made them using cake or pastry flour, to simulate the Zeeuwse flour? I don't know about warming up the stroopwafel, some do, some don't. Our family did, on a hot cup of something or on the gas heater stove.
If your making them at scale - do you have to spread the syrup immediately individually after cutting them in half or can you do it all at once when they’re all cut open and spread syrup for the whole yield.
Hi Toine, I'm from Denmark and I have some problems finding the brown sugar. I have tried to use Danish brown farin sugar but it wasn't good. Do you know if the light brown muscovado sugar can be used instead of brown sugar?
دقيق زبدة سكر بيضة حليب غبرة.قرفة خميرة الخبز ملح طريقة ندمج زبدة مع سكر والقرفة ونضيف الحليب والخميرة نخلاط نضيف بيضة .نخلاط ملح مع دقيق ثم نضيفه إلى الخاليط نخلاط جدا ونحيدو من الوعاء. وندلگو على سطح المكتب نقطعو إلى كويرات صغيرات ونخله جنبا ونحضر الكراميل.نضع في وعاء سكر بني والعسل وزبدة ونذوبها وملح والقرفة حتى تنتج فقعات.( ونطيب حلوة ونفتها بسيكين وندهن وصتها بالكراميل
Is the almond extract not giving an kind of artificial taste. It is why cheaper boterstaven sometimes taste funny. So making the spijs earlier is better?
We used all natural almond extract, no artificial flavors. But yes, when I have time, I make it without extract, and let it sit in the fridge for several days.
@@ToinesKitchen it could be that the Dutch almond extract has a bitter almond in the batch. Something that is supposed to be mandatory in making almondspijs and I just do not like it.
I personally would not use treacle as it has a strong sulfurous nature which I do not associate with waffelstroop. Groetjes van California. Ist gen American-Dutch.
