Great for Spherifying and Reverse Spherification
The Mercer Culinary Spherification Spoon worked perfectly when our family made some reverse spherification mango spheres. The spoon is well made with holes that allow effective drainage of the sodium alginate and rinsing water. The spoon is easy to wash and is about the size of a standard Chinese ceramic soup spoon for easy storage. Overall good value if you're interested in making molecular gastronomy spherification projects.

No Rust So Far | Very Useful
Excellent for straining pickled food and sides from jars for sandwiches, etc. Cleans easily and to my surprise has not yet rusted, having been in contact with highly acidic food.

Almost
I bought this spoon to use as an all purpose strainer for capers, relishes, chutneys etc. The bowl has a good capacity (larger than a typical olive spoon), but the handle is not comfortable. It is not solid but v-shaped, and cuts into the hand while using. I would also prefer it to be longer to better reach the bottom of a tall jar.It is a nice quality stainless, and the bowl does a excellent job of straining and is easy to wash.

Ten Stars
I as not deterred by the negative reviews and so glad! It is perfect for dipping into my prechopped garlic in a jar W/O and draining off the water that is added. Even the handle is comfortable in my hand. Very well made, thank you!

Makes removing egg shell fragments incredibly easy!
This is such an amazing product! I cook us a lot of eggs and inevitibly the shell will crack leaving fragments in the dish I am breaking it into. This is beyond annoying! I kept attempting to remove the fragmented bits of the shells with a teasspoon-but it is an effort in futility.I had no idea what this spoon was for-but was so happy I discovered it recently. It has made my morning breakfast preparations so very easy!

7" Long "slotted" spoon
For everyone who thinks this thing is "tiny," you must suffer from gigantism. It's freaking 7 inches long. Maybe you have a 7" long thumb if you're an orangutan. I find this product is fantastic! I have received nothing but compliments when I put it out to serve olives and the like. I have bought it for friends and admirers; plus it makes a perfect gift for foodies and gourmands.
