Bamboo Round Skewers for Grilling, Satays, and Skewered Vegetables. Bamboo Skewers offer more tensile strength than the wooden skewers and do not get divided into splinters. They can be reused after washing, so they reduce restaurant expenses too. These disposable bamboo skewers need to be soaked in water before cooking to make them ready for use on grill or oven. Being bio-degradable, this eco-friendly skewer is a much better and safer option than plastic picks. The sharp pointed Bamboo Skewers can pierce vegetables, fruits, shish kabobs, meat, etc. cleanly and easily.
