Now that's how how you do it ladies to keep your man happy.
Wow. If you don't know, now you know – thanks!
This would be more accurately tested if all the testers were going roughly the same speed or complete motions / minute. Side to side guy was going much faster than everybody else. Obviously it takes longer to do a figure 8 than a simple back and forth, but the winner was exerting noticeably more energy than the other testers.
Wow thank u i always wondered
Wow thanksss
Joe gets a gold star, yay joe, everyone clap for Joe
Thank you this is helpful to me 😁
What whisk are they using
What if it's egg yolks and sugar?
That’s some whisky business
Wow. What a surprise.
lowkey looks like Brendon Urie in the thumbnail
The fastest technique to whisk
Is to not whisk at all
Nonsense. The best is my whisk beating method. Just make sure the glass is thick enough to not crack.
Side to side technique came in handy for dalgona coffee
who’s here making whipped coffee? 🙋♀️
Who's here because they're bored at home and trynna make dalgona coffee but too broke to have a hand mixer😂
Learned something new 🤔
Yes the side to side is the best. I made whipped coffee in 5mins!
Same goes for chocolate milk powder, got that taught in primary school!
Hi! Thanks for the technique tip!
Got it so whisk the whipped coffee side to side!
I’ve been at it for ten minutes it better be good
One minute that changed my life! Thanks for the demonstration,
I need to buy a new whisk. I wonder which one they are using.
hello
Officially the most helpful thing I've ever learned on all of youtube
Most shear force, but does it incorporate as much air as the loop? Speed isn’t everything.
Straja brought me here
Am I the only one worried about how high far away this glasses are from his ears
Amazing!
A previous ATK video did the same test and also found side to side is best. However it stated that for egg whites the loop is best, contrary to this videos claim. Any thoughts?
Hello!
Expected clickbait, learned something new.
This video is pure click-bait, because ATK itself has posted another video (here: https://youtu.be/zglSRFlFH-s ) that provides a distinction between whisking egg whites & cream. (The latter is best with a lifting, circular motion.) Different principles involved. And oh, BTW – none other than Jacques Pepin, Julia Child, and others, will teach you those two difference, too – having learned from both masters, and a lifetime of cooking in great kitchens.
This video is awesome. Short, sweet, to the point and illustrates the method perfectly.
