Patf Posted January 19, 2011 Share Posted January 19, 2011 To be really pernicketty - if you want to use this thing to scrape out , eg, the remains of cake batter from a mixing bowl, you need a blade that's flexible. So rubber is a good material. Also a soft plastic , or the type of silicone which is used now for some baking tins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andyh4 Posted January 19, 2011 Share Posted January 19, 2011 [quote user="sweet 17"]andy, please come back, un-huffed! I thought raclette is a kind of cook-it-yourself cheese dish [/quote] I'm back.[:P] and yes a raclette is also a cheese dish, a cheese type, and the thing you use for scraping the suds off the window or shower door when you clean them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

just john Posted January 19, 2011 Share Posted January 19, 2011 Why not just use one of your many credit cards sweet?[I][:)] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mint Posted January 21, 2011 Author Share Posted January 21, 2011 So............here I am again! Yes, never thought about one of my credit cards., JJ. And I do really, really use one for cleaning the windscreen of snow and ice.Anyway, many thanks, everyone. I was in Netto this afternoon and I saw a spatule and a "brusher" in a pack for 4 euros so I have bought that.Not that I need a pastry brush because I have a state-of-the-art silicone and brush chrome affair (well, why shouldn't I?) and so I have a spare brusher if anyone is desperate for one!

Gardengirl Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 I thought of you today, Sweet; we were in Carrefour, when I remembered I wanted some scone cutters. On finding them, I saw they had spatulas at €1.06 - cheap at the price, I thought! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clair Posted January 22, 2011 Share Posted January 22, 2011 I bought a couple of these silicone spoony-type things from Leclerc for 1€ each. Even if they don't last (wooden handle), they won't have cost the earth!If/when I next order from Lakeland, I'll get a couple of these. They're brilliant and last a long long time...

mint Posted February 6, 2011 Author Share Posted February 6, 2011 Yes, Clair, I do like the rubber ones but they do tend to have bits drop off the edges after a while.I don't mind plastic but they do look so ugly.....ugh! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frecossais Posted February 8, 2011 Share Posted February 8, 2011 I thought of this discussion this morning when watching my daughter scrape the frost off her windscreen wearing a big, fluffy glove with a scraper at the end. Try Feu Vert for one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
idun Posted February 9, 2011 Share Posted February 9, 2011 I would call it a spatula in english and a spatule in french, for once the words mean the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5-element Posted February 9, 2011 Share Posted February 9, 2011 Oh blast! I knew the answer to the original question, but didn't even look at the thread as I thought the scraper in question is the kind you use on a car windscreen to get rid of frost - and I don't know what THAt is called.Une spatule or une maryse (if you watch loads of cookery programmes you will know) but as usual, Clair knew it and was so much faster on her keyboard.[:D] Now, could anyone tell the name of the scraper for car windscreen/window? Or has it been said earlier and I have missed it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
