Frequently asked questions
Are wooden utensils safe for non-stick cookware?
Yes — wood is gentle and will not scratch or scrape non-stick, ceramic, or steel surfaces the way metal tools can, making it ideal for everyday cooking.
How do I care for wooden kitchen utensils?
Hand wash with mild soap and dry upright — never leave them soaking or put them in the dishwasher. Rub in a little food-safe oil occasionally to keep the grain nourished.
What wood are Vanam kitchen tools made from?
Our spatula set is carved from neem wood with a sturdy sheesham wood holder — dense, durable hardwoods well suited to daily kitchen use.
