A lacquemant is a culinary speciality from the region of Liege, although it was created at the Antwerp carnival.
Contents
It is a thin wafer, made from wheat, cut in two horizontally, filled and coated with sugar candy syrup flavoured with orange blossom.
Making
Make a consistent dough with the ingredients and let it rise twice. Make pieces of dough of 20 gr and press it out to 10 cm. Bake it in a waffle iron for thin waffles. Cut it immediately and horizontaly then fill it with syrup.
Consumption
A lacquemant can be sold individually. Then, it is served in a cone whose lower part was folded in order to collect the syrup. However, lacquemants are more often sold by boxes of 6. It can be savoured at home after being reheated a little in the microwave if it needs to.
