The stainless steel whisk is superb for stirring batters and sauces.This nine-inch, narrow-profile whisk is sized for use in small containers where a bigger, clumsier tool would fall short. Like all OXO tools, it"s designed for maximum ergonomic efficiency, which in this case means you"ll create wonderfully fluffy whipped cream in less time and with less effort. A comfortable, beautifully balanced handle stays non-slip whether used wet or dry, while the highly polished stainless steel wires stand up to use after use. The handy tool cleans up easily and is dishwasher-safe.
