We’ve got some awesome spoons handcrafted in Tasmania from rare, local, and hardwood timbers of myrtle, Blackwood and sassafras.
Engraved with our name and featuring a hole to loop some cord through for hanging beside your stove top, we believe these will become a go-to utensil in your kitchen for all your fat-scoopin', jar-cleanin', and taste-testin' goodness.
Disclaimer: due to the nature of wood, these spoons will need to be handled with care and not forced into spooning out firm contents that could risk breaking the spoon. Our recommendation is to use room temperature (soft) fats with this spoon.
Why Cook With Tallow?
High-Heat Stable
A smoke point of ~250°C means tallow won't break down or oxidise at the temperatures you actually cook at, unlike most seed oils.
Rich, Natural Flavour
Adds a clean, savoury depth to roasts, fries and sautés that vegetable oils simply can't replicate.
Nutrient Dense
Rich in fat-soluble vitamins A, D, E & K, and one of nature's richest sources of CLA (conjugated linoleic acid).
Grass-fed tallow has been used in kitchens for centuries, long before it was replaced by industrially processed seed oils. With a naturally high smoke point and a fat profile rich in stable, heat-tolerant saturated and monounsaturated fats, it's one of the safest and most flavourful cooking fats available.
What our cooking fats are (and aren't)
Why tallow is not just "animal fat"
Tallow is rendered from suet, the dense, vascular fat surrounding the kidneys and loins. Because it comes from a highly metabolically active region of the animal, it's far more nutrient-dense than generic body fat. It's one of nature's richest sources of CLA (conjugated linoleic acid) and fat-soluble vitamins A, D, E and K.
At room temperature, tallow is firm, white and shelf-stable, making it ideal for high-heat cooking, pastry-making and long-term storage. With a smoke point of around 250°C, it handles everything from deep frying to roasting without breaking down or creating harmful oxidation by-products.
