Folding whipped cream or egg whites

Folding whipped cream or egg whites
Folding is one of the basic techniques of making desserts, and is used both with whipped cream or whipped egg whites. Basically, folding is a way of stirring ingredients together without losing air or volume, and is used for example in preparing the New York Cheese Cake of this recipe.

To fold the whipped cream into the cheese cream you need to place one third of the cream in a bowl with the sauce, then with a spatula cut vertically down the center of the cream, and sweep it across the bottom of the bowl and up the side until turning the sauce up. Repeat the process for a few time, then place in the bowl another third of whipped cream and continue folding.

You can scrap down the sides occasionally while turning the bowl, until the cream has been completely incorporated into the sauce.
