When a recipe says to sift dry ingredients together (say, flour & baking soda), I first stir them together thoroughly then run them thru a sieve. It's a pretty tiresome step, especially if the recipe says to sift three times!
Then I saw a Martha Stewart episode where she just used a wire whisk to 'sift' dry ingredients together in a bowl. She actrually called it 'sifting them together'.
So do any of you guys use Martha's method and is it as effective as the ol' sieve ? Thanks!
