Ladle (spoon)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A ladle is a type of spoon used to serve soup or other liquids. Although designs vary, a typical ladle has a long handle terminating in a deep bowl, frequently with the bowl oriented at an angle to the handle to facilitate lifting liquid out of a pot or other vessel. Ladles are usually made of the same stainless steel alloys as other kitchen utensils; however, they can be made of aluminium, silver, plastics, melamine resin, wood, bamboo or other materials. Ladles are made in a variety of sizes, the larger ones being about 1 foot (30cm) in length, with the different sizes tailored to the intended use.
