Stalgast MODERN Teaspoon 350010 for Professional Catering

A teaspoon designed for the pace and demands of professional catering, where each piece must balance speed with precision. Unlike larger serving spoons, a teaspoon measures small quantities—sugar, salt, spices, or condiments—directly from bulk containers to individual portions. Its compact size allows staff to work quickly across multiple tables or plating stations without occupying unnecessary space in a tray or cupboard.

The teaspoon operates on a simple principle: its bowl holds a standard measure while the handle provides leverage for scooping and pouring. The shape of the bowl determines how much it carries; a deeper curve increases capacity, while a flatter design allows for easier release of sticky ingredients. In a commercial setting, this means consistent portioning and reduced waste, whether used for plating desserts, stirring hot beverages, or portioning garnishes.

To use, the operator scoops the desired amount from a container, levels it with a straight edge if needed, and transfers it to the dish. The teaspoon is also used to stir drinks, ensuring even distribution of sugar or syrup without splashing, and to portion small items like herbs or caviar where precision matters.

Constructed in a single piece, the teaspoon avoids joints or crevices that could trap food or harbour bacteria. The material is chosen for durability and resistance to corrosion, ensuring it withstands frequent washing and exposure to acids or salts. Its 138 mm length fits standard cutlery organisers and drawer inserts, making it easy to store alongside other service utensils.

The teaspoon's size and shape make it suitable for front-of-house service as well as back-of-house preparation. In a busy kitchen, it becomes a tool for both measurement and presentation, adapting to tasks from plating to customer service without requiring a change of utensil.

Cleaning is straightforward: the smooth surface allows food residue to be rinsed away under running water, and the lack of moving parts means no disassembly is needed. Regular washing in a commercial dishwasher maintains hygiene without damaging the finish, and the teaspoon's resistance to tarnishing keeps it looking professional through repeated use.

This teaspoon is categorised under professional cutlery, where it serves as a standard item in both preparation and service workflows.
