Review of Mauviel Copper 12-Inch Egg White Bowl with Ring

I have always found that egg whites beaten by an electric mixer were too foamy.Almost like soap bubbles.This copper bowl makes them creamy and appetizing.They are very stable and it simply makes fantastic merinque.

Why reinvent the wheel?People have been doing this for hundreds of years.It really doesn't take as long as you think, nor is it as difficult as you may think.

I was watching Sara's Secrets on the Food Network while Bill Yosses was the guest.I was very impressed with him so I borrowed his book Desserts for Dummies.In it, he says that a 12" diameter bowl is best while ~ 7qts is a good volume.He was correct.This bowl seemed huge, but when eight egg whites triple in volume, it fills it up by two-thirds.It is a fine size.

The copper is beautiful.I hang it over my kitchen.

I had no reservations about quality before I ordered and I was correct in my assumption.Mauviel makes quality products.I would consider this heirloom quality.The walls are very sturdy.

The round bottom is essential to whipping egg whites.Beating (not whisking) the egg whites is so much more efficient and less tiring with the round bottom. While if it had a flat bottom, it would quickly ruin your whisk.Believe me I know.It does have a ring which makes it easier to grasp.I also put a towel underneath that I have bunched up in a circle.This adds stability on a slicker countertop.

I highly recommend this product.
