Whip up some frothed milk quickly and easily at home in a few minutes to top your favorite hot drinks. Perfect for homemade lattes and cappuccinos, this is how to get that coffee shop experience at home!
Place the milk in a saucepan and heat it to scalding or 150 degrees Fahrenheit. This is hot to the touch, but not simmering.
Milk frother method: Pour the hot milk in a tall heat proof glass or container. Hold the glass at an angle and turn on the frother. Move the frother up and down until foamy bubbles form, about 20 seconds or so. Tap the glass on the counter to break down any large bubbles.
Immersion blender method: Add the hot milk to the tall immersion blender cup (or a deep pot), place the hand blender in the milk and blend until foamy air bubbles form,, about 30 seconds.
Whisk method: Add the hot milk to a bowl and use a whisk to vigorously whisk it until foamy bubbles form.
NOTES
Use an instant read thermometer to heat the milk to 150F.
Don't let the milk simmer or boil.
Fresh whole milk delivers the best results.
To make larger bubbles for a cappuccino, just froth a little longer.
