All professional grade chef's know that using a fork to lift, flip, turn, rotate, and otherwise move every conceivable type of food while it cooks is not a good idea. For one, puncturing food with a fork releases juices which creates a dry, tough meal. Also, using a fork for handling cooking food is a recipe for dropping your hard work onto the kitchen floor. What's needed is a set of professional cooking tongs that can help even the novice chef manage everything from serving salads, to small shrimp sauteing in a pan to large prime rib roasts emerging from the oven and everything in between. A fork just wont doKitchen tongs have come a long way since grandma's. Of course, there is still the basic model loved by chefs for decades: two plain metal arms connected by a spring. But, for the pros, holm has teamed up with Decker Kitchenware to bring you this set of 3 red serving tongs. The arms come cushioned with silicone, and pincers are nonstick and have silicone scalloping around the edges. Underlying it all is a food grade stainless steel that wont affect the flavor of your food. We believe our innovative design has improved on the old metal tong's. First, we've redesigned the pincers, which are scalloped using silicone rubber. Scalloping the edges makes for a better grip on food. But that's not the end of the story. The shape and firmness of the scalloping can vary. Pronounced scalloping can make items harder to grip. What your tong needs is just the right set of ridges and firmness. We spent hours in our test kitchen making sure our design had just enough scalloping for gripping, but not so much that food would fall right through.
