Over here you'll find a topic devoted to the day I spent in a bread baking class at Johnson & Wales yesterday. In some of the photos you'll see these terrific baker's scale scoop bowl things:

These double-lipped items can serve as scoops, bowls, and funnels for pouring items into mixer bowls. Most important, they can be used on scales thanks to their footed base.

They're everywhere in the labs at J&W but I'm having a hard time finding any on the internet. Here's one example that's not exactly the same but would suffice. Does anyone have any other sources for these?

you could probably talk to chef stamm and find a wholesale source...

but here's another link for a scoop. i think the one you initially linked to is the same thing...just a slightly different shape or perspective of the photo

Everything appears to be plastic these days, but there are some stainless steel options out there...

So we finish the eighteenth and he's gonna stiff me. And I say, "Hey, Lama, hey, how about a little something, you know, for the effort, you know." And he says, "Oh, uh, there won't be any money. But when you die, on your deathbed, you will receive total consciousness."

So I got that goin' for me, which is nice.

I use a nested set of silicone bowls (http://www.amazon.com/iSi-Basics-FlexibleSilicone-Mixing-Bowls/dp/B000S17WN4) for measuring flour and pouring it into the mixer. Works perfectly, allows me to measure and weigh more than one ingredient, and takes less storage space than those elegant single-purpose bowls used by the bread-baking students. (Actually, I'd love to have a single specialized object for each kitchen task, but I'd need an enormous kitchen and a still-larger pantry. As it is, my basement is filled with the kitchen tools and objects I use less frequently.)

in providence you could call hallsmith sysco or maybe perkins supply in taunton. the bloody scales are expensive, around 275 bucks, but the scoops are probably cheap.

they didn't have the laminator in there when I took that class in fall of 96, but it pretty much looks zactly the same.
