separate utensils
Individual kitchen tools
Separate utensils refers to the practice of keeping distinct sets of cooking and eating implements for different purposes—most commonly in kosher kitchens, where meat and dairy require their own utensils, or in households where someone has severe food allergies.
The phrase also appears in food safety contexts about avoiding cross-contamination: Use separate utensils for raw and cooked meat.
