Video: Whisk-Free Whipped Cream

Inspired by conversations on the FOOD52 Hotline, we're sharing tips and tricks that make navigating all of our kitchens easier and more fun. Today, Amanda's showing us how to whip cream without a whisk.

Say you're really jonesing for some whipped cream. You have a big pile of strawberries or a slab of chocolate cake, even some cold whipping cream and a bowl on hand -- but you can't find your dang whisk. Or maybe you broke it. Humor us.

What Amanda is here to tell you is that you don't even need that whisk -- you can get by with an implement that's even more pedestrian. Watch the video below, for a trick you may not want to try at home.

This week's video was shot and edited by our buddy Drew Lavyne, the founder/director of Six Minute Stories and the producer of the super helpful Teach Me Sushi iPhone app. He also helped us out with our Holiday iPad app.
