What is a Spoon used for basting and stirring?
You're looking for a basting spoon.
A basting spoon is specifically designed for:
* Basting: This involves spooning hot juices or melted butter over food while it's cooking, usually in the oven or on the grill, to keep it moist and flavorful.
* Stirring: It can also be used for stirring sauces, soups, or other liquids while they're cooking.
Basting spoons have a few key features that make them ideal for these tasks:
* Long handle: This keeps your hand away from the heat source.
* Large, shallow bowl: This allows for easy scooping of liquids and even distribution over the food.
* Holes in the bowl: These help to drain excess fat or liquid back into the pan.
While a regular spoon can be used for basting and stirring in a pinch, a dedicated basting spoon will make the job easier and more efficient.
