F. Dick 6-inch Pasta and Sausage Fork

Long pasta is easiest to portion when it is twirled into a neat nest, and this 6-inch F. Dick fork lifts and twists fettuccine and linguine from the pot to the plate. It also turns sausages on the grill without tearing the casing.

Straight tines pierce and lift vertically, so the fork can reach into a deep pot or a jar where fingers do not fit. At the board it anchors a small roast or a chicken while a chef’s knife does the cutting. The extra inch over the sausage fork gives more reach above a hot pan.

Twirl the pasta against the bottom of the pot or a ladle to form a tidy nest, then lift it straight onto the plate for service.

The shorter version is the F. Dick 5-inch sausage fork. For carving larger roasts, see the F. Dick 7-inch straight tines fork, and the F. Dick 12-inch plating tongs handle plating.
