Know before you buy
The spoon features a specialized shape or angle that contours to the natural stirring motion of a right-handed cook. This ergonomic design helps reach the corners of pots more effectively, which is essential for preventing roux from scorching.
This spoon is not dishwasher safe. To preserve the wood, hand wash it with mild soap and warm water, then dry it immediately. Periodically applying a food-safe mineral oil will help prevent the wood from drying out or cracking.
Yes, the 15.5-inch length is ideal for deep pots and Dutch ovens, providing enough reach to stir comfortably without getting your hands too close to the heat. It is particularly useful for the long, continuous stirring required when making a roux.
Absolutely. While it is optimized for the constant stirring needed for a roux, its sturdy wooden construction makes it a versatile tool for soups, stews, and sauces. The flat edge is particularly effective for scraping the bottom of your cookware.
The fleur de lis is a decorative element that adds a touch of Louisiana tradition to the utensil. It does not interfere with the spoon's functionality or the comfort of the ergonomic handle.
