What is a "whisk"?
A whisk is a kitchen utensil used for mixing or whipping ingredients. It typically consists of a handle with several wire loops attached to the end. Whisks come in various sizes and styles, including balloon whisks with rounded heads for whipping air into batters or creams, flat whisks with wider heads for mixing sauces or gravies in shallow pans, and mini whisks for smaller tasks like beating eggs or blending dressings. Whisks are valued for their ability to quickly and efficiently combine ingredients, incorporating air and creating smooth, uniform textures in dishes.
