A spoon with holes is just called a slotted spoon.

The spoon is called a slotted spoon whether it has holes or slits in the spoon.

The slotted spoon is a utensil that is used in food preparation and allows the liquid to pass through the spoon while keeping the solids in the spoon.

The slotted spoon is like a strainer that allows the liquid to leave the spoon but keeps the food in the spoon.

Some people use the slotted spoons to eat soups and stews by dipping the meat and vegetables out of the stew or soup and then they sometimes will drink the leftover liquid in the bowl.

That's what I do.

I use a slotted spoon myself when eating stew or soups and then drink the liquid from the bowl.
