I think the hole in the pot handle works great as a place to set the spoon. My friend thinks this should be illegal.

This should be illegal. The spoon will drip the juice on the oven. Plus its a hazard if someone happen to swing near the spoon, it's game over.

Not just on the oven, the juice will run up the handle and get everything dirty. Might as well be stirring with your hand at that point.

Are... are you not supposed to do that?

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

Not if it's hot you could burn your hand

[โ€“] [email protected] 15 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Yea why not just put it on a plate to the side?

[โ€“] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago

This is the way.

If someone else is in the kitchen while I'm cooking, its already game over, for them.

Why would anything be swinging over a hot stove?

Long hair, loose clothes, a rogue dick. You never know.

This person's clearly never gotten their dick stuck in an unsupervised bolognese, and it shows.

To me, a big spoon trapped like it can act as a lever, is not a good idea in a kitchen, in general. I Myself pull a small plate to put my kitchen tools on it.
