Main Page | See live article | Alphabetical index Whipping is a cooking technique that involves incorporating as much air as possible into the mixture of ingredients. It is similar to beating, only generally carried out for a longer period and done using a mixer rather than by hand. Cream is generally whipped as an accompaniment to desserts. Eggwhites form stiff peaks when whipped and can be made into meringue. This article is from Wikipedia. All text is available under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License.
