Kitchen Tip: Keep it in the Bowl

Have you ever started mixing something in your KitchenAid and accidentally put the on speed too high?

Before

…and after

If you have, then you’ve probably had a bunch of the mixture fly out onto your work surface. It can also happen if you’re mixing a large amount of something and the bowl is too small.

Here’s a quick tip that professional bakers use: Before you start mixing, cover the bowl and the machine with a towel. It will catch most of what tries to escape the bowl.

If you’re worried about getting your towel stained, you can also use a large piece of plastic wrap. When the mixing is done, just pull it off and discard it.

It’s so simple and makes clean up a snap.
