Good Evening, Welcome to the list, Brennen. You ask some good questions. I don’t flip many things that I cook in the oven. When I do flip something, I use a wide single spatula or a set of kitchen. I find the double spatulas that are usually recommended by rehabilitation professionals difficult to use, particularly with small things such as hamburger or sausage patties.
As for flipping French fries, I use a long handled spoon, such as those used for serving or ladling things. I also use an 8 or 9 inch square pan to cook them in, rather than a cookie sheet as most instructions for doing fries in the oven suggest. Again, welcome to the list and congratulations on having your own place.
