Viking 8‑Piece Stainless Steel Utensil Set
Important note on kitchen utensils
When I choose kitchen utensils, I avoid plastics or polymer coatings on the parts that touch food, especially for tasks with heat like stirring, flipping, and serving. I also avoid tools with unclear coatings or finishes because I want the food-contact surface to be the base material, not a film over it. This aligns with the broader idea of minimizing materials like PFAS, nylon, and non-stick polymers in contact with hot foods.
Materials
This utensil set is made from stainless steel with a mirror finish and ergonomic handles. Stainless steel is an inert metal that doesn’t require chemical coatings to perform, and the food-contact surfaces are just metal — no plastic heads, paints, or unknown finishes.
Product description
This 8-piece collection includes a range of essential cooking and serving tools, such as solid and slotted spoons, a pasta fork, ladle, and spatula. The mirror finish gives everything a polished look, and the seamless stainless design is straightforward to work with across everyday kitchen tasks.
What I like
I like that the parts of these utensils touching food are stainless steel with no coatings or plastics involved. Metal won’t leach PFAS or other polymers into your meals, and a quality stainless set feels durable and long lasting in regular use. These tools cover the range of common prep and serving needs without extra finishes between you and your food.
Things to keep in mind
Because this set is metal, it’s best used with cookware that isn’t easily scratched (for example, avoiding bare metal utensils on delicate nonstick surfaces). I also prefer to hand wash utensils like these to help keep the finish looking its best over time.
