OXO Lever Ice Cream Scoop 5 Uses In My Kitchen

I love my OXO lever ice cream scoop! It made with sharp edges and good not only scoop ice cream. I am using very often my scoop and decided to share with you my experience. It is so simple kitchen tool and I am going to dedicate the whole page to share my experience because I like my scoop very much and it is a great investment. It is not only an ice cream scoop. It is a multitasking tool in my kitchen. OXO lever ice cream scoop is a different scoop than I had before because of the construction. Very well build and can handle very hard ice cream. I mention it because some of my scoops broke in the past and I keep buying new ones.

I use my OXO lever ice cream scoop to scoop ice cream and to make large balls. To create a ball from ice cream, place as deep as possible scoop into ice cream, and rotate. To make the small balls of ice cream I used a melon baller.
