Many housewives use the hole in the handle of a frying pan or saucepan to hang dishes.

And few people know that with the help of this hole you can simplify the process of cooking.

Why is there a hole in the handle of a frying pan or saucepan?

As mentioned above, the hole in the handle of a frying pan or saucepan can be used to hang dishes. But this is not its only purpose.

The hole in the handle is used as a holder for a wooden or plastic spoon used to stir food.

A spoon for stirring food is usually placed on the work surface of the table or a plate, or even left in the dish. In the first case, the table or plate gets dirty, in the second, the spoon gets hot.

If you leave the spoon in the hole in the handle, food residue will fall into the dish, and the spoon itself will not heat up. Try it, it is very convenient.
