Read First Before Buy OXO Grips Silicone Cookie Spatula
I love this little spatula. I do not do cookies. I was hoping it would do for turning eggs in a small pan. Oh, yes, and how! It is just great.
I just used this spatula this morning to turn 3 eggs in a very small pan. Since it is small, it can get under the individual egg without disturbing its neighbors. Since it is silicone, the spatula does not stick to the pan or the egg or carry any, what shall I call it, frying pan debris, with it. It works perfectly. I've only broken one egg since I started using it (2 times a week for about 2 months). The handle is short and curved just right for my purposes.
You can see the "base", which is metal, through the silicone. I don't think it will break through, though, as long as you don't leave it resting in a hot pan, maybe not even then. I think it would take a tremendous amount of use for it to wear through. By then one probably needs a new one anyway.
This is a terrific small spatula and I would recommend it to anyone who needs a small compact spatula.
Works great for anything in a small frying pan too. I moved it out of my baking drawer and into my general utility drawer.
BalasHapusAs usual Oxo makes the best kitchen gadgets. I love the size and flexibility of this small cookie spatula. I read a good review about it in Cook's Illustrated magazines. Only downside - it costs more than I would like.
BalasHapusThis is a wonderful tool in my kitchen. Yes, it's nice for cookies, but everything that needs to be flipped in my pans. One super duper thing it does is nudge (turned upside down) brownies out of the pan without breaking them. I have 3 of these in different colors, and will but a new color when I see one.
BalasHapusOXO products have NEVER disappointed me, and have many.
This small spatula is fabulous for just about everything; it was a great addition to my kitchen gadget collection.
BalasHapusI was surprised I like this so much. I didn't actually need a spatula for cookies -- my old OXO works great for that. I bought this hoping it might be great for turning eggs in a small frying pan. And it is! This will probably be added to my list of things I like to give as gifts.
BalasHapusI can't believe I didn't purchase this sooner. I am a lover of gadgets that work well and this is surely one of them. I make a wicked chocolate chip cookie and have been struggling with a full size spatula for such a long time. You know, the ones that you have to navigate into and around the other cookies, while trying not to mash the others set around the one you are trying to get off. This is just the handiest little spatula. Perfect for the job of getting under small pastries or cookies. Oxo did a nice job on this tool. A definite plus in the kitchen of any cookie maker.
BalasHapusNot sure why they call this a "cookie" turner. They should call it the perfect little turner - works perfectly for eggs, and any other food you want to turn or stir in a little pan. LOVE IT. So happy I got this little guy.
