HIC Kitchen's Single-Piece Stainless Steel Ladle is a hardworking kitchen utensil for home cooks and professional chefs. Its capacity is stamped right into the handle for easy serving and portion control without the guesswork for everyday and holiday meals, party buffets, and entertaining. This must-have of cooking utensils is ideal for ladling gravies, soups, broths, consommes, sauces, salad dressings, and more. The longer handle easily reaches to the bottom of deeper pots and pans, mixing bowls, and other cookware to stir and retrieve every drop. A hanging hook at the end of the handle hangs on the side of the stock pot to keep it from falling in, or stores it nearby on a tool rack. Made from a single sheet of 18/8 stainless steel without welded joints or stress points, HIC Kitchen's Stainless Steel Ladle is sturdy, durable, won't rust, and dishwasher safe for easy cleanup. Brought to you by HIC, a third-generation family owned and operated company in the USA since 1957.
