2.20.12: 3 copper nesting bowls




The bowl you use makes a difference when you are whipping egg whites. Copper bowls produce a yellowish, creamy foam that is harder to overbeat that the foam produced using glass or stainless steel bowls. When you whisk egg whites in a copper bowl, some copper ions migrate from the bowl into the egg whites. The copper ions form a yellow complex with one of the proteins in eggs, conalbumin. The conalbumin-copper complex is more stable than the conalbumin alone, so egg whites whipped in a copper bowl are less likely to denature (unfold).

add this to your kitchen collection. there are three different sized bowls which each nest in each other, taking up very little room in your cabinets. each bowl has a convenient metal loop to help you hold the bowl as you whisk. these make incredible beaten egg whites as well as bowls to mix whatever your heart desires.
