Get your stand mixer this staple attachment: the Flex-Edge Beater from KitchenAid®. This coated, dishwasher-safe metal beater with a flexible edge provides more thorough and faster ingredient incorporation and minimizes bowl scraping. Find out how to use the KitchenAid Flex-Edge Beater.
The Benefits of the Flex-Edge Beater
The Flex-Edge Beater is available for all tilt-head and bowl-lift stand mixer models. It is the only Silicone beater specifically made for KitchenAid stand mixers, and is specially designed for thorough mixing and eliminates drag.
When to Use the Flex-Edge Beater
The Flex-Edge Beater can be used for a wide range of recipes. This stand mixer attachment is ideal for foods that tend to stick to and/or collect on the sides of the mixing bowl, such as frosting and certain nut butters.
This is also the perfect attachment for foods that have texture, like smooth mashed potatoes, quiche, vegetable casseroles and many quick breads.
Use the flat beater when cutting solid fat-like lard, shortening or butter into the flour. The fat encapsulated by the flour needs to retain its structure to produce the flaky texture so desired in items like pie crusts, biscuits, scones and shortbread.
When NOT to Use the Flex-Edge Beater
While the Flex-Edge Beater can be used for countless foods, it’s not made for some end products. For example, bread doughs and homemade pastas may be too thick or dense and could potentially damage the beater. A dough hook should be used for these foods and the wire whip is best for whipped, delicate toppings like meringue.
