Stalgast Slotted Spatula 165 × 75 mm for Professional Kitchens

A slotted spatula lifts and turns delicate foods without breaking them, while the perforations let fat and cooking liquids drain away. The wide, flat blade slides under fillets, steaks or burgers and supports them as they are flipped or transferred to a plate. Excess oil or sauce falls through the slots, keeping the food light and the presentation clean.

The operator slides the blade under the food, lifts it clear of the pan or grill, and turns or moves it in one motion. The slots allow air to circulate, speeding up draining and preventing sticking. When serving, the same slots let any remaining liquid escape, so the plate stays dry and the dish looks professional.

The blade is made of stainless steel, resisting corrosion and maintaining a smooth surface that does not scratch non-stick or cast-iron cookware. The handle is moulded plastic, shaped to fit the hand and stay cool to the touch during prolonged use. Both materials are dishwasher-safe, so the spatula can be cleaned quickly between services.

The 165 mm width gives enough support for most fillets and steaks, while the 75 mm depth keeps the blade rigid and easy to control. The size is chosen to fit standard worktop pans and grills without overhang, so the operator can work close to the heat source.

Cleaning follows from the materials: stainless steel and plastic can be washed in a dishwasher or by hand with standard kitchen detergents. The slots are large enough to prevent food particles from becoming trapped, so upkeep is minimal.
