Whipping adds volume to cream or eggs. A stand mixer or hand whisk is best, along with a chilled stainless steel bowl for consistent results.
• Electric Hand Mixer
• Mixing Bowl
• Choose a mixing bowl large enough to allow room for the mixture to expand.
• Chill the bowl and beaters for a few minutes if whipping cream or egg whites to achieve better results.
• Attach the beaters securely to the hand mixer.
• Start the mixer at a low speed, gradually increasing to a medium or high speed as needed.
• Move the beaters in a circular or figure-eight motion to ensure even whipping.
• Whip until the mixture reaches the desired consistency, such as soft peaks for cream or stiff peaks for meringue.
• Turn off the mixer and gently tap the beaters on the edge of the bowl to remove excess mixture.
• Use the whipped mixture immediately for the best texture and flavor.
• Step 1: Unplug the hand mixer and detach the beaters.
• Step 2: Rinse the beaters with warm water to remove residue.
• Step 3: Wash the beaters and mixing bowl with warm soapy water and a sponge. Avoid immersing the mixer body in water.
• Step 4: Dry the beaters and bowl thoroughly before storing.
