Balloon whisks, the classic bulb-shaped wire whisk every kitchen needs, are not all alike—some are heavy and tiring to use over long periods of whisking, while others are flimsy and inefficient. We tested seven models to find the best one, and the GIR Whisk won by a landslide. It’s built for all-purpose mixing: to combine dry ingredients, remove lumps from batters, mixtures and sauces and incorporate air into whipped cream and egg whites. Made from 12 high-quality stainless steel wires, the whisk’s head is designed to optimize wire tension and spacing to create the best foam and aeration. This is balanced by a handle made from platinum-cured, pharmaceutical-grade silicone, which is safer than food-grade silicone and more resistant to wear-and-tear. It’s solid enough to grip comfortably, while staying light enough to allow maximum vibration (without wearing out your wrist). The whisk is modestly sized, clocking in at just over 11 inches tip to end, but offers plenty of whipping power—as much as some of the larger, commercial-kitchen-sized products we tried.
Like all GIR products, the ultimate whisk is stain-, odor-, and microbe-resistant plus it heat-resistant up to dishwasher-safe.
We test everything we sell. Here’s how we’d use this.
Dishwasher-safe; BPA- and BPS-free.
