Mounting/Whipping Egg Whites

Whipping Egg Whites

Ingredients:
2 egg whites at room temperature

Preparation:
Place the Butterfly in a perfectly clean and dry TM bowl.

Add the egg whites (at room temperature) and beat for 2 minutes at 37°C on speed 4.

Hint:
If the eggs are fresh, then two egg should become stiff in 1 min. 30 sec.
The eggs can be whipped without heat, but the result is better if you warm the bowl.
Be careful that no yolk remains after separating the whites, because the whites might not beat well.
The time may vary depending on the amount of egg used. You can mount up to 10 egg whites.

Would this work for making sponge cakes? I cannot wait to use this technique to watch the outcome.

Yes, Tenina uses 50 degrees for whipping egg whites for many of her recipes, so you may even wish to try a higher heat level.
