WMF Profi-Plus 14-Inch Stainless-Steel Ball Whisk

This unique Ball Whisk is similar to conventional wire whisks, yet even more effective at aerating and whipping eggs and batters. Individual wires are topped with weighted balls that work at any angle and into corners and bottom of bowls. Use it with delicate sauces. Roll it between your palms or use like you would a regular whisk - either way it's easy on hands. It's also easy to clean.

In this new design for classic whisks, the individual beaded wires make short work of both mixing and washing. Eleven long wires surround one shorter one, and with the independent movement and extra weight provided by the end bead, air is incorporated much more thoroughly into whisked food. For example, a crème brûlée was blended in seconds, and French toast batter was nearly as fast. Washing is simpler, too. There are no little crevices for thickened liquid to get caught in, and it's dishwasher-safe. If there is any drawback at all, it's that you may overbeat food the first use or two--after that, you're sure to remember to adjust the time. --Jill Lightner
