Why I Always Reach for My Bench Scraper
If you’re like me, cooking is all about the little tricks that make things easier (and safer)! One tool that I always have by my side when prepping ingredients is my trusty bench scraper. 🙌
You might be wondering—why not just use my knife to scoop everything off the cutting board? Well, here’s the deal: dragging a sharp knife across your cutting board not only dulls the knife over time 🪓😬, but it’s also just plain inconvenient. A knife blade is narrow, so you end up scooping smaller amounts of food, which can take forever when you’re prepping a big meal. 🕒
Enter the bench scraper! 🏋️♀️ It’s wide enough to gather a large amount of food in one go, so whether I’m transferring chopped veggies, garlic, or herbs, I can do it all in one smooth motion. No mess, no fuss! 🌿🍅 Plus, I don’t have to worry about damaging my knife or cutting board, which means everything stays in top shape longer.
If you haven’t tried using a bench scraper for your meal prep yet, I highly recommend it! 💯 It’s one of those little tools that makes a big difference in the kitchen. 😊🍴
