About this dish
Liège waffles are a variety of waffle developed in the Wallonia region of Belgium. The Liège waffle differs from the Brussels waffle (sometimes referred to as the Belgian waffle) in several ways. It is smaller, the dough is a dense and heavy brioche, it contains pearl sugar, and unlike the Brussels waffle, which is traditionally served with toppings, the Liège waffle is traditionally eaten plain. The pearl sugar caramelizes during the grilling process, which gives the Liège waffle a crunchier, chewier, stickier bite; the Brussels-style waffle is lighter with a crispy bite. Liège waffles have a deeper divot and a rounded shape, while the Brussels waffle is usually rectangular. Liège waffles are made from a raised dough, while Brussels waffles are made from a liquid batter; the Brussels waffles soften as they cool, while Liège waffles can be eaten hot or cold.
