So I bought this for my mom a few years back because she would always thicken gravy by using a fork to stir in roux. She brought it up with her for Thanksgiving one year at my house and I used it…and I’ve had it ever since. I’m a bad gift giver. But this whisk is fabulous. The shape of it is great for sauces, gravies…and it is short enough that it works in saucepans and not just big roasting pans.  It also doubles as a fish spatula in my house!

I discovered within the last year or so that if you turn it upside down, the handle has a lip that you can use to rest on the side of a pan, rather than dirty a spot on the counter putting it down. I love this whisk!
