Facts About Chef Attire and Kitchen Tools

The tall white chef hat, traditionally called a toque, developed in nineteenth-century Europe to signify kitchen rank. Wooden spoons remain popular in cooking because wood does not scratch pan surfaces or conduct high temperatures to the handle. Softwoods and hardwoods like beech or maple are commonly shaped into durable kitchen utensils.

Questions and answers

Questions About Chefs and Cooking Tools

Why do professional chefs wear tall white hats?
The height of the hat historically indicated the chef's experience level and standing within a restaurant kitchen. The white color signifies cleanliness in food preparation areas.
Why are cooking spoons often made out of wood?
Wood does not conduct heat quickly, which keeps the handle cool during constant stirring over a hot stove. Wood is also gentle on cookware coatings and does not alter food flavors.
What woods are best for making kitchen spoons?
Dense hardwoods like maple, cherry, and beech are preferred because they resist moisture and do not split easily when washed.
