• Before first use: The right way to use your salad set is to wash them before the first use. Use a mild detergent and water to clean the dust off the flatware. Double-check that the detergent does not have lemon or any similar strong acid as it can change the colour of your utensil. Towel dry the washed utensils and keep them in cabinets. Keeping them in sunlight reduces the life of your salad set.
• The right way to use it: Position the serving spoon and fork from your salad set between your thumb and middle finger. Use a firm grip, clamp them together over a considerable section of your salad and release it over your plate. When you've taken the desired portion of the salad on your plate, keep the salad set on the serving rest. Instead of leaving the serving spoon and fork over the salad bowl, it is wiser to keep them near the bowl, when not in use.

Different types of forks are used for varying purposes

• The fork in this salad isn't like the usual forks, as you might have noticed. The right name for these forks in today's world is 'sporks' because they look like the combination of spoon and fork. To use them, hold the spork in between the little pieces of broccoli or berries in your salad and carefully drop them over your plate. The spoon in the salad set helps collect the salad that couldn't be held with the spork.
• The idea behind these sporks is the convenience of holding fruit-shaped cuts of the vegetables in the salad, as shown in the image. Without letting the pieces fall, the spork holds multiple avocados and slices of any fruit over your salad.
• The colour of these forks is the main highlight. The beaded separator that connects the handle of the serving spoon and fork adds a new dimension to your tableware. Apart from that, it's useful in holding any type of salads, including the ones that have quinoa and zucchini in them. This makes them an all-rounder on every dining table.

Combine salad set with salad bowl: You can either choose to mix and match the colour of your bowl with the salad sets or, if you're bold enough, contrast the gold-finished salad sets with wooden salad bowls. No matter the combination, it will look perfect with any salad bowl be it transparent or colour coated.

• To wash it: The mirror finish shine of the salad set can be maintained for years if you wash it using the right detergent. The detergent shouldn't be strong or very mild. Many recipes of salads have dressings that are made using oils. If you use a detergent that's too mild, it won't remove the oil. Bacteria may thrive on such oil and reduce the life of the flatware. Hygiene poses another problem. So, use a detergent that has a minimal acid and wash the salad set with lukewarm water. Towel dry or leave it under sunlight to dry before the next use.
• When you store them: A couple of tips in terms of storing the salad sets are mentioned in the list below:

Keep them in a cold and dry atmosphere that is free from dust.

You can either store them inside the cabinet or over an open shelf. Just make sure that it is dusted every second day, when not in use.
