USING YOUR HAND MIXER
THE ATTACHMENTS AND THEIR USES | SPEED SETTINGS |
•The Balloon Whisk
The balloon whisk is a joy, and holds the secret of beating egg whites and cream successfully. It is the perfect tool for incorporating air into light ingredients to create feather weight results. Use the balloon whisk for hot, cold and frozen soufflés and to whisk
•The Dough Hooks
Use the dough hooks for pastry and biscuit dough recipes that use soft butter or oil, and for breads that include olive oil. Due to their clever action, they mix dough thoroughly and quickly
•The Beaters
The Dualit hand mixer is a powerful tool and the beater attachments can make a heavy mix smooth, take lumps out of a sauce, mix together cake ingredients or cream sugar and eggs together to make custard and ice cream. Making mayonnaise is no longer a tricky task
