#utensils

1 post1 participant0 posts today

Back in 2018, I made this very handy mini egg-flip. And for what it was designed to do (flip eggs, move biscuits off trays, etc) it excelled.
However, youngest child has been using it to fry steaks and pressing down on the steak in the process, so the thin shank glued in to a turned wooden handle was a weak point. The wood broke.

Rather than just make another handle with the same problem, I set about fixing the attachment point.

I took some engineering grade stainless bar, and forged down a small part of it and formed a cone, then welded that to the egg-flip shank. The existing wooden handle fits inside beautifully. I'm now waiting for the epoxy holding it in there to set before it can go back in service.

1959 Cooking Party Preparation

"A group of people are standing around a large table laden with various ingredients and cooking equipment, preparing to cook a meal.
The scene suggests a collaborative effort and a festive atmosphere.
The individuals are dressed in casual clothing and appear engaged in their tasks.
In the foreground, there is a kitchen island with an assortment of food items, including eggs and tomatoes, as well as several bowls and utensils.
The background shows a larger area of the table, covered in more ingredients, with people focused on their cooking stations."

1975 The Art of Folding

The image is a promotional photo for a product called the "Page-A-Day Calendar." It features a collection of silverware, including forks, knives, and spoons, that are spread out in front of the calendar.
The utensils are arranged in such a way that they appear to be coming off the page of the calendar, creating an illusion that the items on the calendar are tangible.

1975 A New Look in Baking: Sleek Silver Spatulas

The image depicts two large, shiny silver spatulas.
One has a handle and is leaning against what appears to be a metallic surface or oven door.
The other is standing upright on its own.
There's text that reads "A New Look in Baking: Sleek Silver Spatulas," suggesting that the image might be from an advertisement or magazine feature.
Below the main title, additional text states "Handcrafted by Kroeger and Sons," indicating the maker of these spatulas.

Butter Knife or Spoon @tamski.bsky.social ?

I helped cooks make trays of sandwiches & they buttered with a spoon, not a knife. It's fast, easier spread, & a good measure for the amount of spread you choose.

SO, do you use a spoon or a butter knife

Explain your reasoning?

As I rediscover #cooking for myself, I feel #grateful every day for the #utensils I inherited from my grandmother, an amazing cook, from my mother who couldn't boil water to save her life but liked a well stocked #kitchen, and as gifts from boyfriends past

The stories of these items tell my whole #history except for a Oaxacan bowl bought on one of my first solo adventures, a shot glass from my Dad and a few etcs
