aerolatte chefAt aerolatte, the incredibly frothy coffee company, customers used totell us how they made vinaigrette dressings with their aerolatte. Sometold us that they made omelettes and others, meringues. But we tried itand, being perfectionists, found that the milk frother was a little too fastfor vinaigrettes and a little too slow for egg whites. The torque wasn’tquite right for omelettes, so we designed a variable speed version whichwe’ve styled as the aerolatte chef kitchen whisk. Do all of the aboveand froth milk! Comes with 2 x AA batteries. MSRP $29.99 from HIC:brands that cook.
