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.
