Good cooking requires skills, knowledge, experience, good taste, and lots of cooking utensils and kitchenware. We usually use lots of dishes during cooking and baking in order to make our cooking more effective. When it comes to kitchen utensils, the traditional and most natural choice would be wooden kitchen spoons and spatulas that our grandmothers used to cook with. Wood is one of the oldest materials from which man created household items, because it has a lot of advantages. Among its strongest advantages are no toxicity, complete safety for human health, and extremely high resistance to damage.
Even today wood cooking utensils take an important place in many kitchens as they are beautiful, durable, and can serve for many years. Natural wooden utensils look great in every kitchen, and are perfect for traditional interiors, country style places, or modern spaces. Wood is practical and versatile.
Wooden cooking utensils might make a brilliant decoration when hung above the stove, placed in a special tool box or, for example, a wooden kitchen jar not only always at hand, but also perfectly performing a decorative function in your kitchen. You can either purchase a set of wooden kitchenware or compose it from whatever wooden tools you need in your kitchen.
Undoubtedly it is worthwhile to have various types of spatulas or wooden spoons in the kitchen, which are especially recommended when using nonstick pans or pots with ceramic or Teflon coating. The delicately crafted edges of the wooden spatulas and spoons will not damage or scratch the surface of your nonstick kitchenware. When you are cooking different dishes, you may need to have a number of wooden spoons, spatulas, forks, cutting boards, and wooden trivets at your disposal to make your work effective and your dining table look beautiful.
Wooden kitchen utensils for cooking have many advantages. In this article we will discover the most important ones. There is no doubt that chefs may find many other arguments in favour of a natural choice. You must be sure that all wooden cooking utensils used in the kitchen successfully pass the test of the modern times!
1. Wood is durable
Wood, unlike plastic, is strong and durable. Here are some specific examples. Wooden cutting boards wear out very slowly, while silicone or plastic cutting boards, although looking homogeneous and aesthetically pleasing immediately after purchase, quickly lose their original charm. Unlike glass containers, wooden jars will not break after falling to the ground. Wood cooking utensils are much more resistant to accidental bumps or falls. In short, wooden kitchen tools made of hardwood are resistant through time.
2. Wood is a natural material
The kitchen is more associated with the natural concept than any other room in the house. It is due to the fact that we want to live healthily and in accordance with the rhythm of nature. Therefore we look for the best diets, check the calorific value of the food we eat, and seek the origins and value of products. Wood exists in perfect harmony with vegetables, fruits, and spices. That’s why wooden salt containers, cutting boards, spatulas, and other kitchen accessories are used more often when made of wood than other alternative materials. If you love nature, make a natural choice. Use wooden utensils in your kitchen.
3. The production of wooden utensils is natural
The production of wooden products is definitely environmentally friendly in contrast to the mass production of synthetic kitchen tools. This is why some people buy wooden plates, wooden salt boxes, wooden cutting boards, wooden trivets for hot dishes, and many other tools that are eco-friendly and safe for us and the planet. This is not a key argument, but certainly an advantage that should be kept in mind.
4. Easy to clean
If you associate wooden utensils with moisture and faded color, know that it usually happens due to lack of proper care and improper use of your wooden tools. Remember to always wash and dry your wooden spoons and other wooden tools quickly. Before first use coat them with oil that naturally preserves and keeps wood smooth and dry. You can easily remove unwanted odors and staining with salt, lemon juice, or baking soda and vinegar. As you can see, you don’t need any expensive solutions or chemicals to keep your wooden utensils in a good condition, because you already have them in the house and they are healthier and more effectively extend the life of your wooden cooking utensils.
5. Wooden cooking utensils are suitable for most kitchens
Regardless of the interior design and style of your kitchen, wooden utensils and tools are likely to fit into this unique place in your house where style, practicality, and ambience matter. Cooking from your heart requires an appropriate environment that guarantees the strongest possible presence of natural wood. Can you place natural elements in practical use in your kitchen? Yes, you surely can, and this will be your masterpiece!
6. Wood cooking utensils will always be modern
Cooking utensils made of wood are created for collection along with the development of restaurants and the cooking industry. Even if you buy them in a gap of a few years, they will perfectly complement each other and your kitchen will become stylistically complete and well equipped. They also make great gifts for people of all ages who like to spend time in the kitchen.
