Etymology

The word 'whipped' originates from the Old English word 'hwippian', which means 'to move quickly' or 'to strike'. This term has evolved over time to indicate the action of agitating a mixture to incorporate air. The culinary usage of the term became prominent in the 19th century as new kitchen technologies, like the hand whisk and later electric mixers, became available. These tools made it easier to achieve the desired light and airy textures associated with whipped ingredients. As cooking techniques evolved, the term 'whipped' found its way into numerous recipes and cooking terminologies, signifying both the action of mixing and the resulting texture. Today, 'whipped' is commonly associated with foods like cream, butter, and egg whites, and is an essential technique in both home cooking and professional culinary arts.
