WHAT IS A SPURTLE?
YOUR SOON-TO-BE FAVORITE KITCHEN TOOL
The spurtle is a versatile, unique cooking tool first created and used in Scotland with a long history dating back to the 15th century. The unique shape allows for lump-free and evenly-mixed porridge, batter, soups, and more, greatly improving texture. The spurtle is very versatile in its uses and will quickly become your favorite kitchen tool!
​
Unlike other spurtles, The Porridge Mom™ spurtle has a special ergonomic design that has been tested and perfected. The unique shape of the handle and the nodule on the end guarantees lump-free porridge with every use. It is made of non-toxic, sustainably sourced hardwood maple. This means it's safe for you and the environment. Since it's not made of plastic or metal, it can be used to stir a pot on high heat without melting or scratching the bottom.
OUR MATERIALS
SUSTAINABLE & NON-TOXIC HARDWOOD MAPLE
We are proud to say that The Porridge Mom™ Spurtle is Canadian made of 100% hardwood maple: non-toxic and sustainably sourced. Sustainability in Canadian forestry means that 100% of the tree is used, seeds are continuously planted, and indigenous communities are supported through employment and community initiatives.

Maple is a top wood choice for kitchen products. It is resistant to splitting or staining, and is naturally anti-bacterial, making it safe for food use. Maple wood kills bad bacteria by absorbing and suffocating it, thereby inhibiting any new growth. Maple has been recognized by the NSF (National Sanitation Foundation) as an approved wood for use in commercial kitchens.
