spatula

A spatula is a long, flat tool used for scraping and flipping food while cooking. It's typically made of metal or plastic.

When you're in the kitchen, you'll often use a spatula to carefully flip pancakes, eggs, or burgers on the grill. You might also use it to scrape the sides of a pot or pan to make sure all the delicious sauce is mixed up evenly. Some people even use their spatulas as serving utensils for dishes like lasagna or casserole – they're great for portioning out servings without making a mess. If you're baking, you might need a smaller, more precise spatula for getting into tight spaces between the edges of your cake pans. Overall, having a good quality spatula on hand can really make cooking and serving easier and neater.
