Instructions: WAFFLES: Preheat waffle iron. Preheat oven to 200 to keep waffles warm before serving.

Sift flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt into a mixing bowl. In another bowl, combine egg yolks, melted and cooled butter and milk. Stir liquid and dry ingredients together; add cheese.

In a separate bowl, beat egg whites until stiff. Fold into batter until barely blended. Spoon batter into waffle iron, covering about two-thirds of the grid surface. Cook according to manufactures instructions.

Place waffles into heated oven, uncovered, until ready to serve. This recipe makes about 4 servings.

SAVORY SYRUP: Place ingredients in a heavy saucepan. Stir and heat until boiling. Lower heat and simmer about 5 minutes. Remove bay leaf and pour over waffles.
