Dressing Spoon - With or without button (11 1/2 to 15")
A very long handled spoon with large bowl for the serving of dressing
(stuffing) from the cavity of a roasted turkey and other large game
bird. In the basic shape of a tablespoon. The dressing spoon is also
called a basting spoon, buffet spoon gravy spoon, hash spoon, platter spoon,
ragout spoon, stuffing spoon, and a turkey spoon. Some of these names originally
represented different utensils of the same shape but of varying lengths, but the
names today have become interchangeable. A dressing spoon often comes with a
short protrusion on the back called a "button." The purpose of the button is to
hook it onto the side of a large platter while not in use so the spoon doesn't slide into
the plate of food, thus the handle remains unsoiled and ready for use.
