.Mrs. Paolo's Pizzelles
This recipe comes to us from a woman who recalls it as the recipe used
with the original cast iron hand-irons that were first produced by blacksmiths in
the Abruzzi region of Italy. This recipe is prefered by some who like a much
harder and heavier pizzelle cookie .
6 eggs 1
cup butter or margarine (1/ 2lb .)*
7 cups flour 4 tablespoons baking powder
2 cups sugar 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 teaspoon anise seed (optional)
* Do not use more than 1 cup and don 't use oil as a substitute .
Beat eggs and sugar. Add cooled melted butter or margarine, and vanilla
and anise seeds. Sift flour and baking powder and add to egg mixture . Batter
will have a dough like consistency . 1 inch round balls can be formed to be
placed on the grids. Makes about 100 pizzelles.
Variations
Using the Italian Pizzelle recipe given above as the basic recipe, try these
variations . The possibilities are endless!
Pizzelle con Cioccolatte
Add 3 tablespoons cocoa and 3 tablespoons sugar to the basic Italian
Pizzelle recipe. If desired , you may substitute chocolate flavoring instead of the
vanilla and anise flavorings .
Swirl Pizzelles
So many people have suggested this idea that we couldn 't resist passing
it on to you . Make one basic recipe and set aside. Now make one Pizzelle con
Cioccolatte recipe adding three drops of red food coloring. Drop 1/2 a tea -
spoon of basic batter and another 1 /2 teaspoon of Chocolate batter onto the
center of each grid pattern during baking . Two-toned swirl pizzelles!

How to Use your Quattro™
Pl
.zzelle Baker. For best results, follow these
instructions. Note that when your
simple
Quattro1" Pizzelle Baker is new, you may notice some slight smoking or odor .
This
is normal with many heating appliances and will not recur. This does not
affect
the safety of your appliance. Also it is recommended that you discard the
first four pizzelles from your new baker.
1. Plug into a 110-120 volts AC wall outlet. The indicator light will begin to
glow, indicating
that the baker has begun preheating. It will take appro-
ximately 8 to 10 minutes to reach baking temperature. When the proper
baking temperature has been reached, the indicator light will turn
OFF . After this point, you will see the light going on and off. This only
means that the baker is maintaining the proper baking temperature, and
NOT when to start or stop baking.
2.
It is not necessary to season the grids since the pizzelle recipe you are
using will have enough butter, margarine or shortening in it for proper
seasoning.
3. Pick up a small amount of batter and place it in the center of
each grid pattern. After some experimentation . ., ou will learn the proper
amount of batter necessary to produce full size pizzelles.
4. Close the baker and clamp the handles together with the handle clamp.
Baking will take approximately 10 to 15 seconds, depending on your
personal preference for browning, the particular recipe you are using and
the consistency of your batter.
5. Remove pizzelles from
the grid with a spatula. If flat pizzelles are desired,
place on a counter top to cool. If you wish to shape your pizzelles, do so
by removing one pizzelle from the grid and shaping immediately while still
warm.
The other pizzelles will remain warm and pliable until you are
ready to remove them for shaping.
6.
If you need to take a short break , close the baker to reserve heat. When
you return to baking,
you will notice that the first four pizzelles will bake
much faster because extra heat has been allowed to build up.
7. When
you are through baking, simply unplug from the wall outlet to turn
off,
and leave baker open to allow it to cool. After it has cooled, brush
cr umbs from the grooves and wipe off grids with a dry paper towel to
absorb any excess margarine or shortening.

Easy to keep clean
and shiny. A few easy steps
to keeping your Quattro
Pizzelle Baker looking and working like new .
1.
Always allow baker to cool before cleaning and always unplug from wall
outlet.
There is no need to disassemble appliance for cleaning. Never
immerse appliance in water.
2.
To keep chrome parts shiny , use a damp cloth and a powdered cleanser
such as
Bon Ami or Copper Glo. Do not use an abrasive cleanser .
3. If pizzelles begin to stick, use a wire brush to remove any grease build up .
