Frothing Milk without cappuccino maker
Some things that you would need to get the froth are Homogenized cold milk, a small saucepan and a loose wired whisk.
1. First, fill half the saucepan with the cold milk
2. Then, heat the saucepan with slightly higher than medium heat.
3. Use the whisk, and begin to "beat" the milk. start slowly, you would see ,wide bubbles forming and as your "beating" increased, the bubbles will become smaller and more condensed.
4. Whisk faster as the temperature increases and slowly you would noticed that the volume of the bubbles begin to swell.
5. Take caution although the heat and the whisking are giving you the froth, do not allow the milk to boil -monitor the temperature carefully. If the milk boils, both your froth and taste will be ruined.
6. After a while, take the saucepan away from the heat source and continue to whisk until the froth double its size. Now, your froth is ready.
