An example utensil includes a connector and a handle extending from the connector. The connector includes a first end and a second end spaced from the handle. The utensil also includes a first prong and a second prong attached to the first end and the second end, respectively. The first prong and the second prong are configured to move relative to the connector. For example, the first and second prongs may exhibit a first configuration when the first and second prongs exhibit a first maximum distance therebetween and a second configuration when the first and second prongs exhibit a second maximum distance therebetween, wherein the first maximum distance is different (e.g., less) than the second maximum distance. Moving at least one of the first prong or the second prong relative to the connector switches the first and second prongs between the first and second configurations.

An ergonomic handle and utensil holder accessory has tubular main body with a wrist rest extending from the distal end. A grip extends upward from the main body and is threadingly engaged with the main body. The handle of a pot, pan, utensil, or other object is inserted into the main body and the grip is screwed in to tightened the holder to the target object. The user grabs the grip by hand such that the user's wrist and forearm rests on the wrist rest. The holder enhances the user's grip on the target object and provides enhanced ergonomics and lifting power.

The kitchen utensil includes a container and a handle. The outer upper perimeter of the container bears an extending retaining bracket provided with at least one opening for the engagement and reception of a hook-shaped end of a latching tab of the handle. The handle also bears a latch mounted slidingly and able to occupy at least an unlocked position and a locked position in which it is pushed back under the action of a return, to extend, on the opposite side relative to the latching tab, under the retaining bracket of the container. The latch is mounted sliding on the handle in a direction forming an acute angle relative to the plane of the retaining bracket so as to tighten toward the retaining bracket under the action of the return to the locked position.
