And why is it better than like a fork?
In: Physics
It’s about technique, using a fork to whisk doesn’t work as well because you can’t make the right hand motion as easily as with a whisk.
If you’re curious what you’re meant to do is move your wrist on little circles but hold your hand slightly sideways, it traps some air under the mixture while you’re doing it
A whisk has a larger surface area than a fork. As you stir with a whisk, you create space behind the prongs that fill with air and then mix with your liquid. In a viscous fluid like eggs, air gets stuck really easily, so when your whisk is giving that much more air behind it than a fork, it gets you to your desired state faster
