Oxo Good Grips Nylon Slotted Spoon
A good slotted spoon is an essential cooking tool for all kinds of stovetop uses. Whether it's lifting pot stickers from boiling water, or stirring a thick stew,  the long, angled handle and patented comfort-grip make this utensil a sure-fire winner. Because it's constructed from nylon, you'll love using it with your nonstick cookware--no scratching or nicking. The business end is sprinkled with 1/4-inch holes that allow liquids to escape easily. There's a hole in the handle as well, for hanging from a wall rack, and it's dishwasher safe. Because of the length, you'll probably need to lay it in the top rack for a good fit. --Jill Lightner
