Whisk

A whisk is a cooking utensil to blend ingredients smooth, or to incorporate air into a mixture, in a process known as whisking or whipping. Most whisks consist of a long, narrow handle with a series of wire loops joined at the end. The wires are usually metal, but some are plastic for use with nonstick cookware. Whisks are also made from bamboo.

Whisks are commonly used to whip egg whites into a firm foam to make meringue, or to whip cream into whipped cream.

Whisks have differently-shaped loops depending on their intended functions:

  • The most common shape is that of a wide teardrop, termed a balloon whisk. Balloon whisks are best suited to mixing in bowls, as their curved edges conform to a bowl's concave sides.
  • With longer, narrower wire loops, the French whisk has a more cylindrical profile, suiting it to deep, straight-sided pans.
  • A flat whisk, sometimes referred to as a roux whisk, has the loops arranged in a flat successive pattern. It is useful for working in shallow vessels like skillets (in which a roux is normally prepared).

    Whisk (ballroom dance)

    The whisk is a ballroom dance step used in the Waltz or Viennese Waltz. It is one of several ways to get into promenade position and is used to turn dancers around corners or change their direction on the dance floor. It is often performed after a complete reverse turn.

    Footwork

    The basic whisk is only three steps. As in most Waltz steps, the body rises on the second beat and lowers on the third.

    Man (Leader)

  • Move the left foot forward, facing it diagonally to the wall while slightly raising the body (Heel-toe).
  • Move the right foot to the side and slightly forward (toe). Push a little bit forward from the left foot while swaying the body to the left. Slightly raise the body.
  • Cross the left foot behind the right foot, facing the wall diagonally (toe-heel). The step finishes in promenade position.

    • Woman (Follower)

  • Move the right foot back, facing it diagonally to the wall while slightly raising the body (toe-heel).
  • Move the left foot diagonally to the back while swaying the body to the right. Slightly raise the body (toe).

    Ballad Of Richard K

    by: Asg

    Keep down by the ones who sat by your side
    Guts blushing on a night shadow lonley pize
    In the house with no home, cut to size
    Hoplessly divided
    I bent down into the knife
    In the path of my foes, left to die
    Visions of the highway
    I bent back into the light
    Well your god won't smile
    And your conscience can't sleep
    Someone in the wind as fire flies
    against your sheild
    What if i killed you all
    Would it build me up
    Someone in the wind as fire flies
    Against your sheild
    Ten seconds till the blackout parts with his crime
    Got money don't buy in, dont buy the light
    In the house with no home, cut to size
    Hoplessly divided
    I bent down into the knife
    Well your god won't smile
    And your conscience can't sleep
    Someone in the wind as fire flies
    Against your sheild
    What if i killed you all
    Would it build me up
    Someone in the wind as fire flies
    Against your sheild
    Lay down, got rythem
    Where trying to find it
    On stage like a luminous gunner
    Where trying to find it
    Well your god won't smile
    And your conscience can' sleep
    Someone in the wind as fire flies
    Against your sheild
    What if i killed you all
    Would it build me up
    Someone in the wind as fire flies
