stirring iron

Another name for a teaspoon, which stirs a cup of tea.
It can also be used to describe any other spoon which stirs anything.

I put some sugar into my cup of tea and I need to stir it, so I ask another person to pass 'the stirring iron', so I can stir the sugar into my tea.

I need a stirring iron to mix .......
