It depends on the spoon ...
There are wooden spoons in all shapes, colors and materials. For some, one wonders: Is this art or does it make sense? For example, if the spoons have holes. The resolution is here:
Spaghetti spoon / spaghetti server
We have all cooked spaghetti before. And what came out was always too much or too little, right? And this is exactly where the hole in the spaghetti trowel comes into play.
The hole is exactly that wide enough to pass through the perfect amount of (raw) spaghetti for one serving! This makes it easy for us to measure.
In addition, the function of the hole for "finished" spaghetti: Because through the hole in the middle you can scoop the spaghetti easily from the water - the water drips through the hole again, while the claw-like border fixes the pasta. Who invented this is a true genius!
Rührlöffel
This chic copy is by no means a wooden spoon in the original sense. Because "right" stirring is difficult, because a lot of it slips through the hole in the middle. So what about this spoon?
Of course, it is still meant for stirring - such as yeast or spaetzle dough. The meaning of the hole: The resistance of the mass is reduced while stirring and makes the process easier, thus reinforcing the stirring.
Practical side effect: If you want to fish out of a soup only the big pieces - such as potatoes - you can do this quickly with this spoon, without the minced vegetables as "bycatch" mitzufischen.
Oh yes, the sharp corner makes it easier for us to get to the bottom edge of the pots - how practical!
