I think the hole in the pot handle works great as a place to set the spoon. My friend thinks this should be illegal.
You said you’re the only person in the kitchen when you’re cooking, so do as you will.
The day you have kids in your home, please put a saucer or something next to the stove to rest your spoon on, and turn your pot handles towards the back corner, so you can reach them but a small person can’t. I’ve seen the damage boiling oil did to a small child’s face and scalp. Even a year later it was still horrific and painful.
Yeah, spot on. This is just stupid and dangerous. And apparently for folks who don’t understand gravity.
As you said, hot oil… dripping down a spoon handle… directly towards another flame…
This will drip on both handles (spoon and pot), I just put it on top of the pot handle facing down when there’s no nearby plate.
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.
Yea why not just put it on a plate to the side?
This is the way.
Why would anything be swinging over a hot stove?
Long hair, loose clothes, a rogue dick. You never know.
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.

This is some hobbit-level shit.
That is the best compliment I’ve gotten in a while.
We need a mildly infuriating sub asap!
I feel like this would tip over a lot of pots and pans.
I think the picture is unclear somehow, the spoon is over the pot so it isn’t shifting the center of mass outward.
Huh, I guess that makes sense. Mentally I just saw weight being added to the end of the handle.
