High-class restaurants are rediscovering marrow – not the garden vegetable, but the sticky, gooey insides of meat bones. Marrow scoops are constructed similarly to cheese scoops, but are longer and narrower, so you can dig deep into the bone.
Some of the loveliest and most desirable examples, costing upwards of £1,500, are from an elite Scottish gentleman’s dining club of the 1830s – they called themselves ‘The Marrow Bone Club’.’
