What's this pasta spoon thing called?

Question:


You know how in Ramen shops, they have this big spoon that's like a fish-net and you put your uncooked noodles in it and put the spoon with the noodles into the broth to let it cook? What is that spoon called?

Answer:


If you are talking about something like these, apparently they are called "furizaru" "fukazaru" or "tebo".

Item 1009 on this page is called "furizaru" (lit. shaking strainer).

Most Japanese would simply call them "totteno tsuita zaru (strainer with handle)" though.
