Do you have a favourite kitchen utensil?

This is mine. I've no idea how old it is but I use it most days. My MIL was a cleaner for an elderly lady and when she died, the lady's sons paid my MIL to empty the house, to sell what she could, give away what wouldn't sell and tip the rest. We went round to see if there was anything of interest and for some reason I was drawn to this fish slice, I just liked it and decided I needed it.

A wooden spoon with a short handle, it is approx 23 years old and more than likely a health hazard! However we haven't died (yet)

Yes! My spreading knife changed my life! Years of spreading butter on toast with a thin table knife or butter knife, then I noticed in a sandwich shop one day that they used big wide ones like palette knives and had a lightbulb moment.

It’s OXO Good Grips, has a serrated edge so you can cut your toast/sandwich with it too.

Pyrex measuring jug. I use it for so many different things.

I actually have three so they can be in various states of use....

A turquoise silicone spatula - it has just the right amount of bend in it and it is a glorious colour.
I think it was from Lakeland

I have silicone scraper/spatula that will scrape a bowl clean, flip omelettes, get a cake out of a tin, anything really

I'd buy another if I could remember where it's from

Stainless steel double walled cafetière from Sainsbury’s - unbreakable and keeps the coffee hot

I had no idea! I use a spoon to spread butter but would be mortified if anyone found out. Blush

I used to have a vintage hand whisk and it was so good someone pinched it! Shock I haven't been able to afford to replace it because they are collectable.
