Pasta is a culinary staple for everyone. Unless you’re looking to cut carbs, you’ll likely be chowing down on some kind of pasta in the near future. And one of easiest kinds of pasta to cook is spaghetti. But while simple to make, spaghetti can be tricky to serve and to eat, as the noodles can be slippery. That’s why you’ll want a utensil dedicated to the task.
A good spaghetti spoon has teeth that are perfectly spaced so that pasta doesn’t slip through. The best also have a medium-sized hole in their center, which may seem counterintuitive at first, but actually serves a larger purpose. The hole represents one serving size of spaghetti—so if you take a handful of raw noodles and it fits snug, then that will be enough for your solo dinner once cooked. So, no more cooking way more pasta than you need. Plus, it helps drain any extra excess water out of the pasta.
