Handmade Wooden Slotted Spoon, 12"

Black Cherry Wooden Slotted Spoon

Three clean slots carved through the bowl of the Handmade Wooden Slotted Spoon separate solids from liquid, letting broth and fat drain back into the pot as you lift. Cut from American black cherry, the wood stays smooth against cast iron and enamel through regular use, and the hand-carved slots hold their shape without roughening.

What Is a Slotted Spoon Used For?

A slotted spoon is the right tool when solid ingredients need to come out of liquid cleanly. Pasta from boiling water, blanched vegetables from an ice bath, and dumplings from broth. At 12", the handle keeps the hand well clear of steam during the lift, and the wood stays cool throughout.

Finished by Hand in Pennsylvania

Each slotted spoon is crafted by skilled artisans at a Pennsylvania workshop, finished with food-grade mineral oil, and ready for use. American black cherry is a hardwood that holds a precise edge through the slot openings without splintering at the cut. The grain reads differently in every piece, some pale and even, others marked with the wider patterns particular to older growth cherry.

Serves well alongside the Handmade Wooden Turner Spatula and other pieces in the Kitchen Tools and Accessories collection.
