For novices, how do you know you've heated the cream to the correct temp? "Just under the boiling point" of cream is just under 212F. For beginning cooks, I recommend warming the cream on the stove over medium heat (any hotter and you risk burning the bottom), gently running a clean spatula along the bottom--key word here: "GENTLY". You don't want to whip the cream by stirring vigorously (unless you want "whipped truffles", and some do!). When you see lots of steam start to rise off the cream, then it is ready! You do not want to cook the cream to boiling when you see lot of bubbles forming around the edges and the bottom. Simply being very warm will do! I hope this helps!! Kim@KAF
