How to make batter

Batter is a liquid dough in which small pieces of prepared products are dipped in order to preserve juiciness and impart a "voluminous" taste to a crispy crust. There are only three main types of batter - on water, milk and beer (it is also called "French" batter). There are several rules and secrets on how to prepare such a batter so that the dish disappears from the plates at high speed. First, the batter is prepared using a whisk. Yes, of course, it is faster and easier to beat the dough with a mixer, but only a whisk will help fill the batter with oxygen and airiness. Secondly, the yolks of the eggs are mixed with a liquid and sifted flour is gradually added, and not vice versa - the liquid is poured into the flour. Thirdly, the whites are whipped and gently added at the very end, just before cooking, because of this, the batter will turn out to be especially crispy.
