What is a "soup spoon"?
A soup spoon is a type of utensil designed for eating soup and other liquid-based dishes. It typically features a rounded, shallow bowl with a relatively large capacity, allowing for easy scooping and sipping of broth or other liquids. The handle of a soup spoon is usually longer than that of a regular spoon, providing a comfortable grip for the consumption of hot liquids without risk of burning oneself. Soup spoons come in various materials, including stainless steel, silver, or ceramic, and they may have decorative or functional embellishments.
