Tasting Rule: One Spoon, One Taste

In professional kitchens, hygiene is critical:
Never taste twice with the same spoon.

Why? Saliva contains enzymes that begin breaking down food (especially carbohydrates) instantly. This can ruin the sauce’s flavor, consistency, and shelf life.

 Use two spoons:

– One to draw the sauce
– One to taste from

 For neatness, see our separate category: Spoon rests for sauce spoons – ideal for keeping your station clean.
