oz doc
Hi all, just wondering if anyone knows where I can get a round jaffle iron. Something happened to the one I have used over the last 35 years and I had to turf it out. My partner went out and bought a new square one but it just doesnt
cook right. Everything sticks, the bread doesnt brown, etc etc. The old round one was brilliant but I haven't seen this design anywhere.
cheers, doc.

Gooday Oz Doc,
with the square ones, when new, and before use, it needed to be heated up until just too hot to touch comfotablly, then lightly oiled all over using a good quality olive oil or similar. Then allowed to cool and wiped clean. same as if you buy a new cast
camp oven.
regards

The old round ones were made of a cast alloy rather than cast iron as is used nowadays, and as such transmitted the heat very quickly. If you can track any of them down grab them as they are a scarce as.
As other have said you need to season new ones - but as you say they still don't
cook the same.

Not everyone can perfect the "burnt offering' style
