Salad Servers

Salad servers for the preparation and portioning of green salads

There's nothing like a fresh salad to serve as an appetizer or side dish at any meal. A good set of salad servers will help you take salad cleanly from the bowl and portion it onto the dinner plate. Find the right salad servers for your kitchen here.

What are salad servers and what are their advantages?

Salad servers are 2-piece items consisting of a salad fork and a salad spoon. You can also buy salad forks that are combined with a salad spoon, combining both functions in one item of kitchen cutlery.

The salad fork’s special feature

The salad fork has the outer shape of a spoon with small tines or cutouts at the top. This allows you to easily pick up larger lettuce leaves from the bowl. Thanks to the fork’s rounded edges, it does not damage leaves as it picks them up. Some salad forks do not have any tines, but rather a hole in the middle instead. The salad dressing or vinaigrette can drain through this hole so that less of it is carried onto the dinner plate. Green salad should be lightly coated with the dressing, not drowning in it. The long handle means your hands won't come into contact with the lettuce, so you can top up portions hygienically and cleanly.

Why do I need salad servers in my kitchen?

If you don’t have salad servers, you can always use two spoons instead. However, this can make taking portions of large-leaf salads a real challenge. Classic table cutlery spoons have a smaller bowl and a shorter handle. This will make it harder for you to grasp salad with them and the leaves will simply slide back into the bowl. Also, the salad dressing cannot drip off a tablespoon, so it will end up on the dinner plate with the salad. Salad servers are shaped so you can use them to neatly grasp an appropriate portion of salad and transfer it to your plate without dripping.

What material should good salad servers be made of?

Salad cutlery can be bought in a range of materials. A look back shows that salad forks and spoons were often made of wood in the past. Today, you will most often find stainless steel salad servers, because this material offers very special advantages.

Timeless design

Stainless steel always looks timeless. Pots and cutlery are often made of stainless steel as well, so the salad servers go well with existing sets. You can buy both polished and matt salad servers in the ZWILLING online store.

Corrosion resistance

18/10 stainless steel is corrosion-resistant. Salad servers regularly come into contact with liquids. It is all the more important that this does not damage the material. Stainless steel salad servers can be placed easily in the dishwasher.

Acid resistance

Stainless steel is acid-resistant. This is particularly important for salad servers because many green salads are dressed in vinegar.
