Whisk Stalgast 313550

This whisk's extended length allows it to reach the base of deep stock pots, mixing bowls and gastronorm pans without requiring the user to bend over the edge. The wires create a spherical shape that captures and lifts liquids, incorporating air into cream, batter or sauce as the handle turns. The movement generates a swirling motion that pulls ingredients from the sides towards the middle, eliminating lumps and spreading heat or chill uniformly. The result is a smooth, even texture without over-processing, which is particularly important for emulsions and aerated mixtures that need to retain their structure once finished.

The user grips the plastic handle and moves the whisk in quick, small circles or a figure-eight motion. The length helps keep the arm relaxed and the wrist aligned, minimising fatigue during extended use. The wires are firm enough to cut through dense mixtures yet supple enough to rebound, ensuring the whisk moves smoothly with the user's hand. When the mixture reaches the correct consistency, the whisk is lifted, shaken briefly to remove excess, and either set down or rinsed.

The working head consists of steel wires, each 2 mm thick, arranged in a spherical formation. The handle is moulded plastic, contoured to fit the hand and resist slipping when wet. The total length of 550 mm is measured from the tip of the wires to the end of the handle.

The 550 mm length ensures the whisk can be used in deep containers without the handle making contact with the rim, providing space for the user's hand. The steel wires withstand daily wear in a professional kitchen, remaining resistant to bending and rust. The plastic handle is simple to clean and does not transfer heat, staying cool even when stirring hot liquids.

Cleaning involves rinsing the wires under running water immediately after use to stop residue from hardening. For a deeper clean, the whisk can be placed in a commercial dishwasher; both the plastic handle and steel wires endure the high temperatures and detergents used in professional cleaning systems.
