  • About
Use these for beating, mixing and stirring, both during preparation and cooking. General-purpose spoons, in the traditional shape, are available in varying sizes. There are also a variety of flat spoons without bowls for creaming mixtures, and spoons that have an angled point or flat bottom to get into corners of pans or dishes. Wood does not conduct heat, so spoons stay cool while you are stirring a hot mixture; the long handle also helps to keep your hand and arm away from the source of the heat so you do not burn yourself. Do not keep wooden spoons in a pan during cooking – they can burn and even catch fire! Wooden spoons with holes need careful washing.
