In large bowl, sift or whisk together flour, cornstarch, cornmeal, baking
powder, baking soda and salt to blend thoroughly; set aside. In mixer
bowl, beat egg whites until soft peaks form. Add sugar; continue beating
just until stiff peaks form. Set aside. Whisk together egg yolks, buttermilk
and vanilla to blend. Using rubber spatula, stir buttermilk mixture into
flour mixture, blending until dry ingredients are moistened. (There should
still be small lumps; do not over mix.) Stir in melted butter. Fold in beaten
egg whites until combined. Pour batter onto hot, greased waffler and
bake.

Waffle Tip:
Cornstarch makes the waffles crisper. If you don’t have
cornstarch, you could still make great waffles by omitting cornstarch and
increasing flour to 2 cups. Bake as directed
