Cook your porridge
like a true Scot.
The spurtle has a long history in Scotland
where it was used to stir the oats as they
softened slowly in the pot. Today's oatmeal
doesn't take nearly as long to cook, but why not
keep in touch with tradition and use a spurtle
anyway? And apart from cooking your
morning bowl of oatmeal, it will find many other
uses in your kitchen.
Your wooden spurtle won't
scratch your pots
No need to worry about scratching pots or
pans with cookware made from wood! And that's
not all. Recent studies have found that wood
contains chemicals that fight bacterial growth.
Your spurtle is easy to care for
Just wash your spurtle in warm soapy water
and leave it to dry thoroughly.
If you wish, you may occasionally wipe your
spurtle with a little mineral oil to renew the
finish. I don't recommend using cooking oils as
some types can go rancid.
Handcrafted from fine local
hardwood
I handcraft these spurtles from hard maple
and finish them with mineral oil. This
contemporary design is about 13 inches long.
