A brief note...Hugh
2008-12-27 23:12:00 UTC

I’m actually on holiday with my folks here and not technically meant to be blogging, but I had to share this one with you all (although it’ll be of most use to our UK readers).

Sainsburys are currently selling a brilliant little double whisk thingy. It’s not a balloon whisk, but one of the old double interlocking whisk style. It’s great – electric, of course, five speeds, and I’ve used it tonight for a dinner party to whisk up eggs for a souffle (successful, I might add – thanks, Cooking for Engineers) and foam from lecithin.

It’s from Sainsbury’s Basics range.

Oh, and it costs £3.97.

Including VAT.

That’s less than the eggs I used it to whisk.

Need a whisk? Might as well get one, considering it costs about the same as a pint and a half of decent beer.

Isn’t that fantastic? Any similar bargains? Anything Stateside our US readers should know about?

Hah, I still have the double whisk wiv a turny-type handle I nicked from my parents to take to University in, um, 1985.

Is pretty good.
