Melamin cookware

[darkishhorse]

I'm try to source a melamin spatula, or "turner", for use with Teflon-coated frying-pan. Wooden and plastic ones tend to burn or melt very easily. (I burned my present one when I moved my frying-pan off the gas, but inadvertently left the handle overhanging the naked flame!) The damaged one has a logo on the back of it, and the words Fackelmann melamin. It was purchased 25-30 years ago whilst caravanning in Gstadd, Switzerland, and was really hard-wearing, but alas, not designed to be held above a gas flame :-(( I assumed there would be no problem locating a similar replacement in Glasgow, but this appears not to be the case. Any assistance would be much appreciated

Online here as a high temp nylon utensil, or look out for matfer or melamine from Nisbets here too - you need to open an account to order from these ones as a trade supplier, but worth it for the other equipment aviailable.
Runcible Cookshop (0141 248 4954) may have one as well - not been in to these guys so call before visiting perhaps. (they are in Princes Square)

Thanks Nickmo. Will investigate these possibilities. It certainly doesn't take long to receive replies on this site!
