A tablespoon is a common utensil that is found in almost all sets of cutlery. It can be seen as a multi-use piece of silverware because it is useful for a wide variety of uses if you do not have purpose-designed pieces. For example, many people will use a tablespoon for eating soup if they do not own a dedicated soup spoon. Have you ever wondered why risotto spoons have a hole in the head piece? It allows the rice to move through while you stir, rubbing grains and making the risotto creamy and smooth. This spreading out of risotto on a plate – seen as a sacred law by some chefs – is justified on the basis that, when eaten from the outside in with a fork (question: who wants a fork’s prongs repeatedly scraping and clanging on porcelain as you eat?), this allows the risotto to cool readily, so that its flavours can shine through.Do not use any sort of blue cheese in a risotto. Blue cheese is not cooking cheese. When warm, its flavours go haywire, it becomes shrill and aggressive, sweaty and fetid. It stinks up the place. Like a stumbling drunk. Use arborio rice (or carnaroli if you want to go next level) when making risotto. It’s a round grain rice that absorbs liquid really well, which makes for that wonderful creamy consistency

These spoons are used for eating soups and broths or for serving sauces. They can also be used in the serving and eating of rice or main meal components. Soup Spoon The Italian risotto par excellence is risotto alla milanese. To prepare it, finely chop the onion and sauté in a pan over medium heat with butter. Add ossobuco (ox bone marrow) if you’d like. Toast the rice on high heat for one minute, stirring continuously. Add white wine and let it evaporate. Pour in the hot broth a little at a time, stirring occasionally. Cook the rice for about 16-20 minutes, according to the chosen rice, adding two sachets of saffron halfway through cooking. Salt if necessary. Remove the pan from the heat, add cold butter and grated parmesan cheese. Stir until the risotto is soft and creamy. Let rest for a minute with the lid on and serve. If you’ve made risotto before, you’ll know how much it can be to make. If it’s your first time, however, you’re in for a treat! Heard of the Mini Supoon from Dreamfarm? Dreamed up down under in Australia, this super spoon comes to the rescue for those difficult household tasks. It has a built-in spoon rest to protect your surfaces, can reach into spice jars, can easily scrape the last dregs in jars (designed to eke the last bit of Vegemite from the jar) and give you an accurate 5ml measure too. They’re also heat resistant and dishwasher safe. Talk about a super spoon! Scoop it up!It is made of stainless steel and has a nice weight to it and, although the handle is short, it sits comfortably in your hand. But it is the spoon itself which gives the beauty – it has an elongated sensuous curve to it, and a generous surface area to scoop an exact portion of creamy risotto, perfectly cooked “all'onda”, like Delia’s classic risotto Milanese. I now find myself making excuses to cook risotto all the time for the sheer pleasure of using it.

Stir cooked king prawns, clams and mussels through your risotto. Finish with a knob of butter, a squeeze of lemon, chopped parsley and a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil. The first fundamental step in making risotto is toasting the rice, which serves to make the grain more compact to prevent it from breaking as it cooks. Heat a large saucepan and pour in all the rice. Continue stirring the rice with a wooden spoon and toast it for a few minutes. You’ll know it’s ready by touching it with your fingers and smelling it; the rice must be very hot and give off the scent of the grain. You can also toast the risotto with another fat like a sautéed onion (or shallot) and butter (or oil). Once toasted, add a glass of wine and let it evaporate for extra flavor.

This risotto spoon has a hole in the centre which increases the surface area of the spoon. By allowing grains to pass through, the risotto can be stirred faster to create the smoothest texture towards the end of cooking. Olive wood has a high oil content which makes it extra-resistant to bacteria - ideal for cooking utensils.
