Richmond Black Platinum Plating Spoon Large has been one of the best-selling items at CKTG for years, and the reason is simple: it is a well-made, properly proportioned saucing spoon at a price that makes sense whether you are stocking a professional kitchen or picking up a few as gifts. Line cooks reach for this spoon constantly during service for saucing plates, basting proteins, tasting, and the dozen other tasks where a good spoon in hand makes the difference between clean work and a mess. The color makes it easy to spot when working in a busy kitchen.
Built from 18/8 stainless steel with a mirror-polished bowl and brushed handle, the large plating spoon holds approximately 2.5 tablespoons - enough capacity for a clean sauce smear or a controlled pour without being oversized for a composed plate. At 230mm and 2.8 oz it has the reach and presence of a serious working spoon. Multiple reviewers have noted it is functionally identical to the Kunz spoon - same feel in the bain marie, same weight, same performance - at a fraction of the price. Once you work with a proper saucing spoon during service it becomes a tool you will not want to be without.
What Customers Are Saying: Reviewers consistently compare this directly to the Kunz spoon - one measured it at just 2 grams heavier and said he could not tell the difference between the Richmond and his Kunz sticking out of the spoon bain. A home cook who bought a set five years ago still reaches for it daily for stirring batters, scooping muffin mix, and general serving. Line cooks describe it as a workhorse essential that goes everywhere during service. The value relative to premium alternatives comes up in nearly every review.
Care Instructions: Dishwasher safe. For best appearance, hand wash and dry promptly to preserve the mirror finish on the bowl and brushed finish on the handle.
