By hand or with a mixer? Tips to prevent it from curdling <\/strong><\/h3>\nYou can do it both ways. If you do it by hand with traditional whisks, you’ll get a bit of an arm workout, but you’ll have total control. If you use an electric hand mixer, go at medium-high speed. <\/p>\n
Watch out for over-whipping!<\/strong> The golden rule is to stop just when the cream forms stiff peaks and, when you tip the bowl, it doesn’t move. If you keep beating once it’s already whipped, the fat will separate from the whey, the cream will curdle, and you’ll end up making homemade butter.
