- Is the Cuisipro Flat Whisk safe on non-stick pans?
- Yes. The wires are silicone-coated, so they will not scratch non-stick or enameled surfaces. Avoid cutting into the coating with sharp tools.
- Can it go in the dishwasher?
- Yes, it is dishwasher safe. Hand washing keeps the silicone from picking up stains over time.
- How much heat can it take?
- The silicone is rated to 572°F, which covers sauces, roux and most stovetop whisking. Do not leave it resting in a hot dry pan.
- Does it whip cream and egg whites well?
- It works but is slower than a balloon whisk because the flat head moves less air. For stiff peaks, a round balloon whisk is the better tool.
- What is it made of?
- Stainless steel wires with a silicone coating and a handle, about 7.9 inches long. It is one piece.
- Is it better than a standard balloon whisk?
- For sauces and pan work, yes, because it reaches corners and protects coatings. For whipping and aeration, a standard balloon whisk is better.
