Stalgast Monoblock Skimmer Spoon Ø 140 mm

A skimmer spoon lifts foam, fat and impurities from the surface of hot liquids while letting the liquid itself drain back through its perforated bowl. The perforations create a fine mesh that traps unwanted particles without removing the stock or sauce beneath, keeping the cooking process clean and the flavour intact.

To use the spoon, lower the bowl gently onto the surface of the simmering liquid. Move it slowly in a circular motion so the perforations skim the top layer. Lift the spoon when the bowl is full of foam or fat, letting the liquid drain through the holes. Repeat until the surface is clear, then hang the spoon by its curved handle to dry.

The Stalgast skimmer spoon is formed from a single piece of stainless steel, eliminating welded joints that can weaken or harbour dirt. This monoblock construction gives the tool its strength and makes it easier to clean, as there are no crevices where food residue can collect. The bowl measures 140 mm across, providing a wide working area for larger pots, while the 385 mm handle keeps the operator's hand safely clear of the heat.

The handle is curved for a secure grip and shaped to hook over a rail or peg for storage. The stainless steel surface resists corrosion and staining, and the entire spoon is dishwasher-safe for quick turnaround between services.

A handle length of 385 mm means the spoon reaches deep into stockpots and bratt pans without requiring the user to lean over the rim. The 140 mm bowl diameter allows efficient skimming across a broad surface, reducing the number of passes needed to clear foam or fat from a large batch.

Cleaning follows directly from the construction: rinse under hot water immediately after use to prevent residue drying on, then place in the dishwasher or wash by hand with a non-abrasive pad. The one-piece design ensures no hidden areas where grease can build up, so a single wash cycle restores the spoon to a hygienic finish.
