Whipping Stages
With your KitchenAid _ mixer, egg
whites whip quickly. So, watch
carefully to avoid overwhipping. This
list tells you what to expect.
Frothy
Large, uneven air bubbles.
Begins to Hold Shape
Air bubbles are fine and compact;
product is white.
Soft Peak
Tips of peaks fall over when wire
whip is removed.
Almost Stiff
Sharp peaks form when wire whip is
removed, but whites are actually soft.
Stiff but not Dry
Sharp, stiff peaks form when wire
whip is removed. Whites are uniform
in color and glisten.
Stiff and Dry
Sharp, stiff peaks form when wire
whip is removed. Whites are speckled
and dull in appearance.
Whipping Stages
Watch cream closely during
whipping. Because your KitchenAid _
mixer whips so quickly, there are just
a few seconds between whipping
stages. Look for these characteristics:
Begins to Thicken
Cream is thick and custard-like.
Holds Its Shape
Cream forms soft peaks when wire
whip is removed. Can be folded into
other ingredients when making
desserts and sauces.
Stiff
Cream stands in stiff, sharp peaks
when wire whip is removed. Use for
topping on cakes or desserts, or filling
for cream puffs.
