Is this really for eggs?

Hey Guys,
Picked up this old cast iron piece recently. My gut tells me it's an unmarked Griswold. I feel that way because of the handle. Would love to know if I'm wrong? And would also like to know more about what it's used for?

Thank you

 

Muffins/biscuits?

 

Here is a similar one from Etsy

I think it could be for eggs. Hung in a pan of water. But I don't cook, so that is a pure guess.

 

You can buy versions of them new, search aebelskiver.

Glad to see how it is spelled.
I've always called it an Apple skiver pan.

 

Here's a cute Japanese version used for takoyaki - same kind of deal, made with octopus...

 

anything made with the corpse of that beautiful creature is wrong....

 

?

 

Guess you never had an octopus stuck to your diving mask with it's tentacles wrapped around the back of your head. Took it and a couple of it's buddies to the Mad Greek restaurant in Honolulu and they cooked them up right for us.

 

no reason to eat it just cuz it was trying to protect itself ............

 

It attacked in open water with no provocation from us,we were on our way to a cave to pet a reef shark.

 

octopi don't act that way.............

 

Sure they do,there are a number of examples.................... https://www.upi.com/Odd_News/2016/1...s-latches-onto-snorkelers-mask/9091477068231/

Sounds yummy Judy.

 

Better than octopi...

 

It does sound yummy......

I don't ever remember having any myself, altho my best friend's family was Dane/Swede.

 

I would agree!

 

Sounds like something I'd like to try to make


Any insight on whether this is accurately described as a Griswold vs any other earlier unmarked iron?
