Vollrath 4970320 Details

Perhaps the most versatile of any serving utensil, a ladle can be used to dish out soups and broths, as well as drinks and sauces. This Vollrath 4970320 Jacob's Pride 3 oz. ladle is a must-have addition to any commercial kitchen.

A heavy-duty 18/8 stainless steel shaft and bowl is resistant to both corrosion and rusting, while the one-piece construction allows for sanitary use and is easy-to-clean. For help with ensuring the consistent application of measured capacities, this ladle features an exact bowl diameter of 2 15/16''. The capacities are clearly stamped on the item in ounces and milliliters for easy size identification.

This short 6'' handle comes with a black Kool-Touch® coating that aids in safe use, as it is heat-resistant up to 225 degrees Fahrenheit. The stainless steel end of the ladle is heat-resistant up to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. The ladle is also developed with an antimicrobial technology called Agion. For added convenience, a hooked handle prevents sliding and allows for easy storage. No matter the intended use, this ladle is up to the challenge!

This ladle is covered by the Vollrath Jacob's Pride lifetime warranty.

We purchased this ladle to accommodate a prep line with a limit height. This ladle works excellent for that purpose. Additionally, you can immediately tell when holding the ladle that it is a set above an economy ladle in terms of weight and durability. It's worth the extra money.

This ladle is solidly made and well-balanced. I appreciate the covered, curved handle as it easily hooks over the side of the pan/pot. The 4oz size works well for our household. Will be looking to add a 2 oz. version for filling mugs and cups.

We purchased a good amount of these Vollrath ladles for our kitchen staff and they love them. This 2 oz size is used for scooping sauces into our medium size ramekins. The short handle is nice for our expo line because it takes less lifting effort. Would purchase again!

Great ladle. It comes in different sizes and lengths. This one is nice and short, easy to store between uses, and hangs easily with the hooked end coated in a plastic that keeps it from scratching and helps it stay cool. The bowl and handle are from one piece of metal so there is not a seam to collect food particles. This make them much easier to clean!

I love this ladle so much I have even gotten one for home use. It is so sturdy and the handle being short makes it easy to hook on to the side of a bowl or cambro so that it doesn't slide into your product when rearranging containers you are portioning. I use it to perfectly portion out pie fillings, cake batters, creme brulee, sauces, soups and more.

These ladles are a great quality. The handle can easily be washed or wiped down. The curved handle allows it to rest on the outside of the pan without falling in.

At first, this ladle seemed too expensive, but we were frustrated by 'cheaper' brands' models. We use these for ladling pizza sauce out of the hotel pan in the prep table, and onto pizza dough; for that, these are well worth the cost: short enough, nicely heavy, great texture on the handle coating and perfect size bowl for our 10" pie. Good bottom shape for spiraling out sauce on top of the dough.

The Vollrath Jacob's Pride 0.05 oz. Black Handle Ladle is great for proportioning sauces or ice cream toppings. While the size of this ladle would make it great for commercial use, it could definitely be used for residential for homemade desserts.

This ladle is the sturdiest that I've come across. You can tell how durable it is by the way it's constructed. It's made of one heavy piece of stainless steel. The handle has a non-slip coating which also keeps it from getting too hot and burning your hand. It is a great price for the excellent quality.
