When you're cooking, it can get pretty hard to keep your kitchen space tidy! But no worries: that's what utensil rests are for.
In the kitchen, there's usually a space for everything, but that more or less goes out the window when cooking. After all, it's not like we can put dirty spoons and spatulas back in their usual place while we're not using them! And when we just rest them on the counter in between uses, of course, they make an unfortunate mess that we've got to clean up after cooking. All in all, it can make the cleaning up process that much more annoying, right?
