We are so excited that Holeman & Finch has reopened. Their Sunday brunch is now our go-to. Everything is delicious but the rice flour waffles are intriguing. We’d love to try to duplicate these at home so we can spend our time at the restaurant finding new favorites. — Lena Scales, Atlanta
When chef Linton Hopkins, co-owner of Holeman & Finch, supplied the recipe he wrote, “Let me count the ways that I love these waffles: the crisp exterior, the use of the Anson Mills Carolina (Gold) Rice Flour and (Anson Mills founder) Glenn Roberts’ work. It’s also about the family memories associated with our waffles. The texture provided by the historic rice flour, the quality of the Southern Swiss buttermilk we use, and the Banner Butter and sorghum are what really make these flavors special to me. Flavor, family, history. That’s it.”
Anson Mills’ Carolina Gold Rice Flour is available from the miller at ansonmills.com. Order your flour and they will mill it fresh when they receive your order. When it arrives, use it right away and store what’s left in the freezer.
If you are using Morton kosher salt, use half the amount called for in the recipe.
