Thanks to lifehacker.com: " If it starts to boil up too high, the spoon will pop the bubbles and keep it from boiling over as quickly, meaning you have more time to get back and turn the heat down. Note that this could warp a wooden spoon, so do it with a utensil you don't want as much. Alternatively, you could use something metal, but you'd have to remove it with an oven mitt because it will become very hot"
What else can I help you with?
What material would you stir boiling water with?
A wooden spoon
Why would medel spoon be hotter in the boiling water then the wooden spoon?
Metal conducts heat better than wood, so a metal spoon will absorb heat more quickly from the boiling water, making it hotter to the touch. On the other hand, wood is a poor conductor of heat, so a wooden spoon will not get as hot as quickly in the same boiling water.
What will happen when you put a metal spoon in boiling water?
some water vapor released from boiling would condense on the cold spoon as water droplets.

If you left a medal spoon in a pot of boiling soup why would it burn someone's hand?
Well, honey, that metal spoon is conducting heat like it's on a mission. When you leave it in that pot of boiling soup, it's basically turning into a mini hot rod. So, if someone's not paying attention and grabs that spoon, they're gonna get a nice little burn as a souvenir.
Why is a wooden spoon a better choice than a metal spoon for stirring a boiling pot?
The wooden spoon will not be a conduct heat, or in other words, the heat will not affect this type of material. The metal spoon is a good conductor of heat and therefore, the heat will travel up the spoon and most likely burn your hand. And lastly, the plastic spoon, will not burn your hand but is a not good enough material to stir hot food in so it will most likely melt

Metal spoon is often placed in glass before pouring in boiling water why?
My mother didn't, actually, but if one's mother did, it was probably to start cooling it right away to reduce the chance that the glass would crack. The spoon draws away the heat and releases it to the air. So while you may need to pour boiling water over a teabag, it does what it needs to to the teabag and then quickly starts to cool.
