Whisk Silicone Wire Coated

The whisk wires are coated with silicone, making it safe for use in nonstick pots and pans. It’s also nicely weighted throughout and safe to put in the dishwasher. The handle is not made of heat-safe silicone, though it is heat-resistant up to 600 degrees Fahrenheit.

It handles heavy batters and light salad dressings with ease. To test it out, we mixed a homemade caramel sauce on the stovetop and were impressed with the silicone coating—nothing adhered to it while whisking, and it didn’t scratch the ceramic-coated cast-iron saucepan we used. The handle was comfortable to grip while mixing the heavy ingredients in the pecan pie like brown sugar while still being lightweight enough to stave off hand fatigue. In an oregano vinaigrette test, it was easy to angle the whisk into the bowl because of its flexibility.

After all the tests, we put it in the dishwasher and ran it through a cycle. It came out pristine and looked like it had right out of the package. The nonslip, ergonomically-designed handle coupled with the wide balloon and silicone coating of the wires make this a great addition to a gadget drawer or utensil crock. Though our whisk held up under all the testing, some reviewers note that over time the silicone may break away from the wire.
