Rosle 12925 Stainless Steel Fine Tipped Needle-Nose Pliers Cooking Tongs

I saw these on the Sorted Food channel and I bought a pair. They are excellent for what they do. The pads give greater pressure and the tips are precisly aligned for perfect placement. A very nice pair of cooking tweezers. Highly recommended.

Looks good, the price is a bit expensive but its quality is good so worth the price, the length is just right for me to cook my steak on a grill.

Worth it, fine ridged edge for gripping soft foods. Quality steel and has many applications. I love it for bacon, pasta, blanching, and plating

Spendy and completely unnecessary except for the fact I'm not that good at using cooking sized chopsticks.I can use chopsticks pretty well for eating table side but as far as cooking goes I am a novice.These tongs really grip the food and a wrist flip is quick to turn a lot of food over that is on the small side before the pieces that you started with go too far and burn or over do it.I wish I had these years ago, but back then I do remember when these were a thing, and the price was discouraging to someone of my income. That was the old mall days of going through william sonoma and drooling at things that you knew you couldn't afford.Now that I have them, I use them for flipping bacon or sausage, small to midsize steaks and chops, potatoes, shrimp, flat veggies, wings, or anything else that this small size is capable of.I would describe them as being on the nimble side of things without being tweezers and obviously not for heavy lifting.

I've always used silicone coated tongs and especially liked those with little feet (Tovolo make great ones). Then I came across these. Wanting something with a finer tip which I can also use for plating. These tongs have been great, even (especially) with deep frying and handling raw and cooked meats in and out of the pan. They're sturdy and do not bend much at all (much like the Tovolo's). WIthout the silicone, there are less edges to collect grime, which is a plus. Highly recommended even though a tad expensive.

I read on some food blogs about how amazing and essential tongs are. Well, they are occasionally useful, and these are nice. But if you are used to normal (larger) tongs, and also have a pair of chopsticks for cooking, these are rarely particularly useful.Still, they are well-made, but I am not using it as much as I expected.

My first pair of tongs I bought a year and a half ago after attending Francesco Lafranconi's Tea seminar at the Santé Symposium. His command and elegance of bar tools was mesmerizing. I knew the new state laws across the country would eventually lead to all bartenders having mandatory tong use. So it was inevitable. There is a certain elegance using the longer versions. Given my love for the Rösle bar spoon, it was an easy choice when choosing manufacturers. The quality of Rösle makes it easy to grab cube after cube of kold draft without clumsily struggling with lesser quality products. Garnishes, sugar cubes, and Maraschino cherries <Luxardo or home made of course> are easily placed with out touching anything but the tongs. My biggest pet peeve was bartenders sticking their hands in a jar or container of olives/cherries without pre or post washing. Especially posting up to the bar for over an hour and seeing everything the bartender was doing.I've given these tongs as gifts to many of the game changing bartenders in the country after seeing the obvious advantage of usage. Although somewhat expensive, they are a vital part to a barkit/tool bag. They can confidently be used to stab bag/clumped ice just like an ice pick, pick up dry ice, extract items from jars when setting up your mise en place and/or remove any "foreign/unwanted" objects from cocktails. ..All of which I have done.So pick up set and thank me later when you see how awesome they can be if used for <grilling?> and everything else. Cheers. -Danny

There are a number of such items on the market. Call them giant culinary tweezers, precision tongs...whatever. In my opinion, this is the best of the bunch. They are extremely well crafted, like all Rösle products. Once you have them, you will discover all sorts of uses for them. You can pluck a single strand of spaghetti out of the pot to test it for doneness. Remove a clove or garlic, bouquet garni, Parmesan rind or anything else that requires precision from a soup or sauce. Great for cooking ramen noodles. And if you happen to drop your ring down the garbage disposal, (somebody explain to AOC what that is), this product could save a marriage. Highly recommended.
