I feel compelled to mention that any leftovers from something like cacio e pepe will likely waffle.
Waffle Iron "Fried" Cheese (Queso Frito)
Belgian-style iron shouldn't be a problem, Marco Barisione. Might need to adjust size/thickness of cheese slices.
And I love the waffled take on cheese and crackers, Jason Neudorf.
Use Your Waffle Iron for Seriously Crispy Tofu
@It's Not Easy Eating Green: There's a note in the recipe. It'll work in either.
Use Your Waffle Iron for Seriously Crispy Tofu
@MRubenzahl: You could use the marinade as a sauce if you want. A lot of water isn't great for crispness, but the flavor trade-off of having that mixture on there while it cooks is worth it. In any case, there's not that much water in the mixture -- a little from the soy sauce and a bit from the miso. Some of that moisture evaporates in the cooking time, but it's helpful if you reduce the moisture as much as possible going into it— thus the paper towels. If you do choose to forgo applying that mixture beforehand, definitely still brush it with some oil.
@NWCajun, that's great to hear. Enjoy!

@eyoolia Isn't it fun? I picked it up in Tokyo at Tokyu Hands.
Use Your Waffle Iron to Make Extra-Crispy Churros Without a Deep Fryer
This is that relatively unusual waffling recipe that does benefit a bit from a particular style of waffle iron. In my experience, the deeper grooves of a Belgian-style iron allow more room for the batter to rise/expand. That said, if your waffle iron had shallower divots, you could compensate to an extent by using less batter.
With the waffled ramen and the waffled hash browns that I wrote about recently, either style will easily do. Shallow grooves are not a problem there in my experience.
When people ask what kind of waffle iron to get, I usually tell them to base it on what kind of waffles they prefer -- then they can let the other recipes fall into place. You don't have to spend a lot of money. I have a few Chef's Choice models I'm happy with, both Belgian and standard.
Look around at garage sales and online auctions too!

Great to see you loved it too. This is my go-to spot for a grass-fed burger. And, yes, the fries are fantastic. It's already to the point, though, where I'll only go for lunch on weekdays around 2 p.m. or so. Crowds aren't so bad then. Yet.

Beautiful. One of my all-time favourite sandwiches, waffled or not.
