THE SECRETS OF SUCCESS

DAILY USES FOR YOUR HAND MIXER

•Frightened of making sauces, or using packet mixes, because they go lumpy? Simply immerse the beaters into the sauce, still in the pan, and run on a low speed.

•Plunge the beaters into mashed potato to fluff it up (for dinner party standard, see page 17)

•Make savoury hot soufflés a frequent item on your menu – so impressive, but really easy with your Dualit hand mixer (see Soufflé recipe, page 15)

•Produce quick and healthy mousse desserts. Whisk some egg whites to a stiff peak (see page 12) and a little cream (in separate bowls), fold into a fruit purée and serve. Alternatively, fold whites in Greek yogurt or fromage frais. Drain in a fine sieve and serve with berries

•Make a habit of whipping cream – it takes little time and can turn a dull cake or plain dessert into something delicious. Whipped cream is a perfect accompaniment to hot apple pie, fruit puddings and tarts. The contrast of cold cream with a hot pudding is something special. Sandwich homemade biscuits (see recipe, page 23) with whipped double cream, berries and a dab of ice cream for an instant dessert

•Bake a cake for tea. The hand mixer makes light work of knocking up a packet cake mix for children’s tea time treats

•Whiz up a pancake mixture. Pancakes are always popular, especially for the children’s supper and they can help make them.

Use a packet mix, or simply make your own: break 2 small eggs into a medium sized bowl, add 2 heaped tablespoons of flour, a pinch of salt,140ml (¼ pint) milk, 2 tbsp sparkling mineral water, or beer if you have some open. Using the beaters at a medium speed, mix it all together thoroughly. Scrape down the sides of the bowl and, on a fast speed, beat to a smooth cream. Allow to stand for at least half an hour before making pancakes

•Egg yolks and sugar beaten ‘to the ribbon’ is called for in some recipes, which sounds daunting. The beaters make easy work of this. Test by lifting the beaters slowly out of the mixture which, when ready, will run off in a ribbon-like consistency
