Every professional chef or baker should have a selection of wooden spoons in their commercial kitchen. These spoons are ideal for almost any mixing task, making them versatile additions to your kitchen supply. Thanks to their broad and oval concave bowls, wooden spoons have sturdy constructions that can handle thick batter, dough, frosting, and fudge. Since wood is a non-reactive material and won’t alter the taste of your acidic dishes, you can also use them for sauce, soup, and stir fry.
Both small wooden spoons and large wooden spoons are safe for use on non-stick surfaces, and they won’t leave scratches like metal spoons will. They’re also non-conductive, so if they’re accidentally left in hot or boiling liquids, the handles will remain cool to the touch, whereas metal spoons can become very hot and burn the user. They're lightweight and comfortable to hold, as well, making them ideal for recipes that require constant stirring.
