Why Your Pasta Spoon Has a Hole in the Middle – And It’s Genius!

The amount of spaghetti that fits through the hole is roughly one serving size,

helping you avoid cooking too much (or too little) pasta. This means no more guessing or eyeballing the right amount—you can always cook the perfect portion.
Efficient Pasta Cooking

While stirring pasta in boiling water, the hole allows water to drain as you lift the pasta out,

making it easier to scoop without excess liquid. Plus, it helps ensure the pasta isn’t clumping together.

So next time you cook pasta, remember that your pasta spoon is more than just a utensil—it’s a clever kitchen tool designed to make your life easier!
