I can't believe how long I cooked without a good set of tongs. The silicone coating on the tips keeps things from sticking yet allows the tongs to have a better grip on food. I use these frequently but like them best when I deep fry. The batter doesn't stick as much and the soft tips don't break the coating.
f you don't have this size with the silicone ...get this one. Opens and closes with one hand. Good for tossing pasta dishes and salads. I use it for turning meats...even on the outside grill!
I have a couple different sizes of tongs. These are a kitchen staple for me and I love this pair for the silicone tips. They are heat safe up to 600 degress so using them on the BBQ to turn those delicate vegetables or meat is a go with these.
This is nice and long tong, sturdy and durable. With this a foot tong, cooking is easier and ensure your hands is far enough from the pan or grill. I liked that tip is nonstick, it is made of silicon and dishwasher safe.
These foot-long tongs are perfect for use indoors and out. The silicone ends will protect the nonstick surfaces of your cookware for the long run and will firmly grasp food for quick and easy turning.
I have been won over by silicone tipped tongs. I use them all the time. They don't melt in a hot pan, and they don't scratch my non-stick surface and stainless steel. I can pick up most foods and maneuver it to wherever I need it to be. This length is for pots and skillets. Get the 9-inch for sauce pans and smaller fry pans. The metal shaft isn't too big for my average hands; locking pull works well.
This tongs can do anything - they can be used in the kitchen for all purposes and even used on the BBQ. They can take temperatures up to 600F. Dishwasher safe another plus and I love the loop on the end the handle.
