Handcrafted Teak Serving Ladle | Non-Toxic & Sustainable Spoon for Soups & Stews

The Yompai Deep-Bowl Wooden Serving Spoon is the perfect bridge between a standard spoon and a ladle. At 22cm long, it features a generous, hand-carved cavity designed specifically to hold liquids and chunky ingredients together—making it the ideal tool for serving hearty stews, thick soups, dal, or saucy curries.

Handcrafted from a single piece of premium Thai teak, this spoon is naturally moisture-resistant and built for daily use. Its compact size is perfect for table service, allowing guests to serve themselves from communal bowls with ease and elegance.

Why You’ll Love the Deep-Bowl Design

• Generous Serving Capacity: The deep, rounded bowl is shaped to scoop up generous portions of both broth and solid ingredients in one go.

• 100% Solid Teak Wood: Naturally antibacterial and incredibly durable; teak won’t absorb strong spices (like turmeric) or odors as easily as other woods.

• Heat Resistant & Safe: Unlike plastic, teak wood won't melt or leach chemicals when used in boiling soups or hot stews.

• Gentle on Cookware: Smoothly sanded edges ensure this spoon is safe for use in your favorite non-stick, ceramic-coated, or stainless steel pots.

• Artisan Craftsmanship: Each spoon is hand-carved in Northern Thailand, highlighting the beautiful, high-contrast grain unique to teak.

Caring for Your Teak Serving Spoon

To keep your deep-bowl spoon in beautiful condition:

1. Hand wash only with warm, soapy water.

2. Dry immediately to protect the natural grain and prevent moisture absorption.

3. Avoid the dishwasher, as the extreme heat can cause natural wood to warp or crack.

4. Occasional Oiling: Apply a food-safe oil every few months to keep the wood nourished and maintain its rich, dark luster.
