CUTIPOL Gourmet - Palette knife with holes

The slots really do let the oil drain off perfectly, making my fried chicken cutlets way less greasy than with a regular spatula. It’s also surprisingly handy for scooping out blanched broccoli without dumping all the hot water back into the sink.

I've been using this to lift poached eggs out of simmering water, and the slotted design lets the excess water drip right back into the pot before the egg hits the plate. The handle feels well-balanced in my hand, making it easy to maneuver in a crowded pan.

The holes really do let oil drain away fast while I'm scooping out fried chicken. It's also surprisingly sturdy for getting vegetables out of boiling water without them slipping off.
