Yeah, I've noticed that! I actually don't mind the idea, since I quite like using my hands for mixing a lot of things already... but I was even commenting to rackham after I made the guacamole this evening that it seemed to be a bit of a waste of good avocado (since so much of it sticks to your hands). But it really did make for a good texture, and everything blended well (plus it was fingerlicking good, when I was done mixing!). I think I might do it that way again, unless I'm only making a tiny bit.
Still not sure about his method for separating eggs, but I'll probably give it a try at some point, just to see if I like it. I was taught to cook mostly by my grandmother and great-grandmother, who used a lot of similar methods. To this day, I still measure out teaspoons of salt in the palm of my hand, because that's the way I learned it.
