Common Questions About Commercial Kitchen Utensils
How can kitchen utensils improve portion control?
Serving utensils enable operators to scoop food in uniform amounts, order after order. These restaurant tools typically range in volume from less than 1 ounce to 8 ounces or more and can be used with mashed potatoes, ice cream, cooked vegetables, soup, beans, rice, and condiments. The portioning end of the utensil may be solid or perforated to drain liquid from product as needed.
What are commercial cooking utensils made of?
Restaurant tools may be made of wood, metal, silicone, rubber, plastic, or a combination of materials. While all commercial kitchen utensils are made of food-safe materials, that doesn't mean they're safe for every use. Some utensils made of flexible plastic, for example, don't resist heat as well as a tool made of stainless steel. Harder metal tools, on the other hand, can scratch or damage nonstick surfaces while wooden, rubber, and plastic implements don't.
Many options have plastic handles for comfortable gripping, while others are made completely of metal to resist extreme temperatures and withstand intense use. To prevent cross contamination, some models have color-coded handles as well. Some options include handles with holes or hooks for easy hanging between uses.
Because there are so many different options available, it's important to choose the best restaurant utensils carefully for your tasks.
