Kitchen Utensils

Commercial Kitchen Utensils in Toronto & Canada

Kitchen utensils are the hand tools a cook reaches for all day, whether it's whisking a sauce, flipping fish, or serving a slice of pie, and you'll want a full set when opening a kitchen or replacing tools that have melted, bent, or gone missing. Winco makes most of this collection, from the French Whisk, sold in sizes from 10" to 24" for everything from small bowls to large pots, to the 14" Stainless Steel Perforated Turner for lifting and draining food and the Nylon Pasta Fork, which is heat resistant up to 410°F and non-stick friendly. The Melon Baller and other soft-grip prep tools handle fruit and garnish work, while Browne's HORIZON 10" Stainless Steel Pie Server is a serving piece for the pass or the buffet. Phoenix Food Equipment is based right here in Vaughan and ships kitchen utensils across the GTA — Toronto, Mississauga, Brampton, and Richmond Hill included — plus nationwide across Canada.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions we hear from operators.

Are silicone spatulas heat resistant?

Yes, silicone is one of the more heat resistant materials for a spatula, but the rating matters. The Winco Flat Blade Heat Resistant Silicone Spatula Scraper is rated up to 500°F (260°C) and comes in 10", 14", and 16" lengths, which makes it a good scraper for hot pans and sauces. Nylon is a step lower: the Winco Nylon Slotted Spatula is heat resistant up to 410°F (210°C) and non-stick friendly, so it suits everyday sauté and non-stick pan work but shouldn't sit against a hot burner. Whichever material you choose, avoid resting a spatula in a hot pan, since that's how most tools melt or warp.

What is a fish spatula used for?

A fish spatula has a thin, flexible, slotted blade that slides under delicate food without tearing it, which makes it the tool for flipping fish fillets, eggs, and pancakes, while the slots let oil and juices drain away. The Winco Nylon Fish Spatula is slotted, 12" long, non-stick friendly, and heat resistant up to 410°F (210°C), so it won't scratch a non-stick pan. For a stainless steel option, the Winco 14" Stainless Steel Serving Turner has a flexible head and comes in solid and slotted styles. You'll want one when a thick, stiff turner keeps breaking the food apart.

What is a French whisk used for?

A French whisk is long and narrow with stiff wires, which makes it well suited to blending sauces, vinaigrettes, roux, and thick batters. A wider balloon whisk is better at whipping air into cream or egg whites. The Winco French Whisk is stainless steel, NSF listed, and sold in eight sizes from 10" to 24", so you can pick a short one for a bowl or a long one for a big pot. If you're working in non-stick cookware, the Winco Nylon Whisk is 12" long, heat resistant up to 410°F (210°C), BPA free, and won't scratch the surface.
