Now, of course, sometimes I do cheat on my soup weather meals with store-bought stuff, because Sam's Club's Autumn Squash Soup is just so darn good. But as Ina Garten might say, there's nothing better than homemade chicken stock. I like to buy whole fryer chickens when they're on sale and make giant batches of stock (using Garten's recipe, of course). Then I freeze the stock using Souper Cubes so that it's at the ready when I want to make soup or just add richness of that broth to another dish.
If you are as invested in making your own soups and stocks as I am, then you know it's kind of a messy pain to constantly remove the "scum" off of the top. While "scum" is a horrible name for anything, it's basically made up of proteins and other impurities released from the meat, bones or vegetables as they cook. It looks foamy or cloudy and rises because it's lighter than the liquid. Skimming it off isn't about safety—it just helps your broth stay clear and gives it a cleaner flavor.
Hobby Lobby has a Strainer Scoop for just $0.99 that makes the process of skimming off the scum so much more efficient, like in a, "Where has this been all my life?" kind of way. Typically I was using my fine mesh strainers to scoop the icky stuff, which would lead to kitchen splatters and more cleaning for me. This strainer scoop eliminates that problem.

It's also great for scooping out dumplings steaming in a pot, if there's still a bit of water left behind. Or even removing potatoes from a pot of boiling water when you're ready to mash them.
