A bamboo skewer is a slender wooden stick made from bamboo for threading food. It is lightweight yet sturdy, pale straw in color with a faint grassy aroma when singed, and commonly used to hold pieces together for grilling or broiling or to present small bites; typical retail lengths range from 6 to 12 inches in round or flat profiles with sharp tips.\n\nBamboo skewering is rooted in East and Southeast Asian street foods such as satay and yakitori and spread globally with portable grilling; modern skewers are mass-produced from split bamboo that is shaped and sanded smooth.
