Greetings, friends,
I think the tips you shared are very good and I totally agree with that.
The right choice when we use a spatula made of wood, this can make it easier for us when stirring the cream so that it does not stick and clump.
Thank you very much for your participation, and thank you for the cream recipe you shared.
