The case for wooden cooking utensils.
Wooden kitchen utensils have been used for centuries and are still preferred by chefs and homecooks alike. Cooking with wooden spoons, spatulas and salad servers are more than just pretty accents in a crock next to the stove. When it comes to cooking, they far outrival the alternatives. If you aren't familiar with what makes wooden kitchen tools better than metal or plastic, we'll give you more than a few reasons to try them out:
Won't scratch your cookware: wooden cooking utensils are the most gentle option when it comes to protecting your nonstick pans, or any cookware for that matter.
Best for health and flavor: they won't leach harmful chemicals into your food (unlike plastic) and wood doesn't react with acids or leave a metallic taste like metal tools typically do.
Durability: when properly cared for (see our FAQs) wooden utensils can last for generations. Plastic breaks easily and tends to melt if left too close to the stove.
Environmentally friendly: wood is natural, renewable (when sustainably harvested like all of our products), and biodegradable.
