Abstract
A culinary implement capable of functioning as a mop to extract from an aqueous food mixture insoluble liquid fats dispersed therein. The implement is provided with a handle attached to a holder supporting a porous fabric pad formed of non-woven continuous filament polyester fibers having both hydrophobic and lipophilic properties. When the implement is used to mop the mixture, the fats dispersed therein are attracted and adhere to the pad whereas the aqueous mixture filters therethrough, thereby making it possible to free the food mixture of its fat content.
