Milk Street Rethinks the Bench Scraper Our bench scraper's sharp beveled edge, engraved measurements and soft walnut handle make it a pleasure to use everyday in your kitchen. | | The bench scraper is one of those everyday tools (it cleans up a work surface but is also used to divide dough, lift dough off a counter and do a thousand other tasks) that one never thinks about—after all, you buy a cheap model for $10. The problem is that most bench scrapers are disappointing: the edge is blunt and thick, the handles are awkward to hold and they are no pleasure to use. Here at Milk Street, however, we have come to appreciate well-made tools, so we contacted our friends at New England Knives to take a fresh look at the bench scraper and create an artisanal version with a gorgeous walnut handle and a blade that is really up to the task. Built with a comfortable "soft walnut" handle and sturdy, high-quality stainless steel blade, the Milk Street Bench Scraper is the one you have been looking for. The sharp beveled edge 1) slides neatly under mise en place and chopped herbs, 2) scrapes off stuck-on bits—like leftover dough scraps or pesky pepper seeds—from your cutting board or countertop and 3) precisely cuts through dough. We love the engraved measurements on the blade, a feature other bench scrapers on the market often lack. (And unlike printed numbers, these won't fade over time.) With markings up to six inches long and two inches thick, the scraper's measurements are easy to read, even when dusted with flour. Line it up against fresh pasta dough, pie crusts, rolled cookie dough or even sticks of butter, and you'll get uniform pieces every time. Plus, clean cuts of dough mean higher rises in baked goods. The soft walnut handle is subtly waved for a form-fitting grip, so it's more comfortable compared to other model's straight plastic or metal versions. The extra-dense wood material won't dent, crack or absorb water. Bonus: The bench scraper comes with a rubber blade guard, which protects the edge—and your fingertips—from damage in a crowded drawer. We love tools that love us back. Give the Milk Street Bench Scraper a try and you will see what we mean. | | | | |
Meet the Maker: New England Knives A small-batch cutlery producer helmed by industry veterans, New England Knives is based in Springfield, Massachusetts—only 50 miles from our Boston headquarters. They source all of their materials from within the United States, before transforming them into tools like bench scrapers and knives, including the limited edition Milk Street Ulu Knife. | | Transfer Ingredients to Save Time (and Your Knives) Using your knives to scoop up chopped veggies? Think again. Instead of dulling your precious blades, use the bench scraper to transfer mise en place, herbs, chopped nuts, crumbled cheese and more from board to bowl. The 6-inch blade is big enough to securely hold ingredients, so they won't spill all over the countertop. | | | | Precisely Divide Dough for Even Cooking Following the engraved markings, you can evenly portion, cut and knead all kinds of dough—from bread and cookies to pasta and gnocchi. Clean and precise cuts will result in your baked goods looking (and tasting) their best. | | | | Measures for Uniform Results Use the bench scraper's easy-to-see, etched ruler markings to precisely and consistently measure the length (up to six inches) and depth (two inches) of dough or other ingredients. | | | | Sharp Edge Slices Cleanly and Scrapes Away Messes Thanks to the sharp beveled edge, the bench scraper can easily shovel up excess dough, flour and discarded scraps of food from your cutting board or countertop. | | | | | | |
