Rubber Scraper or Rubber Spatula is used for what purpose?

• A. A tool for weighing ingredients
• B. Used for mixing, folding soft ingredients and to remove ingredients from a bowl or plate
• C. A device for peeling vegetables
• D. A utensil for serving hot foods

Answer: (B)

The main idea here is how a rubber scraper (rubber spatula) is used in mixing and handling ingredients. Its flexible, soft blade lets you mix gently and fold delicate ingredients—like whipped cream or light batters—without deflating them, while also scraping the sides and bottom of bowls to lift and combine every bit of mixture. That same edge lets you transfer batter or dough from a bowl to a pan with minimal waste. It isn’t the right tool for weighing ingredients, which needs a scale; it isn’t for peeling vegetables; and serving hot foods is usually done with a serving spoon or tongs, not a rubber spatula.
