Know before you buy
Yes, the nylon head is designed to be gentle on non-stick surfaces, so you don't have to worry about scratching or damaging your cookware.
The handle is designed with a small protrusion that elevates the head of the spoon off your countertop when you set it down. This keeps your surfaces clean and prevents the spoon from picking up debris.
The nylon head is heat-resistant up to 500°F, making it suitable for most stovetop cooking tasks. However, it is generally best practice to avoid leaving any utensil resting directly inside a hot pan for extended periods.
The handle is made from a high-quality paper composite, which is the same durable material Epicurean uses for their famous cutting boards. It is designed to withstand heavy daily use without warping or cracking.
Yes, the entire spoon is dishwasher safe, making cleanup quick and easy after you finish cooking.
