Is every drawer in your kitchen starting to feel like a 'junk' drawer? You know, constantly getting jammed because they're stuffed with so many gadgets and gizmos, they'd put Ariel's trove of dinglehoppers to shame? It might be time to downsize — and we've got just the multi-use tool to replace the assortment of spoons and spatulas in your collection. This Joseph Joseph 5-in-1 Kitchen Utensil is a space-saving wonder, and can be used for everything from flipping and cutting to scooping, stirring and spreading. Plus, it's down to just $7 at Amazon!
Five uses for just $7? Act fast to snag it for a steal!
We all have that one giant slotted spoon that takes up half a drawer alone, which isn't so space efficient given its single job. That said, this workhorse can handle five tasks, and we wouldn't be surprised if it ends up replacing nearly every meal prep tool you own.
Made of durable nylon that's heat resistant up to 480 degrees, the utensil's ingenious design makes use of every inch. For instance, the flatter end acts as a spatula, but since it also has holes, it doubles as a slotted spoon. Flip it around, and you have a solid spoon for serving and stirring, as well as a spreader. And when you turn it on its side, the serrated edge can be used for cutting. We know, our minds were blown, too.
Having this gizmo in your arsenal won't only save you storage space, it'll also save you time, since you won't have to go digging for a bunch of utensils every time you cook. Plus, there won't be as many items to clean — and speaking of cleaning, did we mention it's dishwasher safe?
Don't just take our word for it — more than 5,000 Amazon customers have given the Joseph Joseph 5-in-1 Kitchen Utensil a perfect rating:
"At first glance, this appears to be a stick ... and it is, but a very useful one," wrote a happy home cook. "It is a true multitasker, and can be used in a variety of ways, including scraping, stirring, lifting and even serving. I like having a single tool to help save space. It is also much easier to clean and keep clean than wooden spoons, and doesn't suffer from the same grunginess problems that accompany wooden kitchen tools."
"I bought this because I have a small kitchen and needed to get rid of utensils I barely use," shared another satisfied shopper. "When I tell you this is the only utensil I have cooked with for the last two months, I am being honest. I love that you can flip food, chop ground beef and use the small spoon side for spreads, etc. My favorite thing is that the shape hugs the frying pan on one side, making it easy to scrape the sides. Every time I open my drawer, this is my go-to. You won't be disappointed!"
"This is useful for everything. EVERYTHING," raved a final fan. "I didn't think I needed 'yet another kitchen utensil' ... now this is all I use, to the point that I'll usually manually wash it instead of putting it in the dishwasher just to make sure it's available the next time I'm cooking something. It is dishwasher safe, but I just love it that much."
