OBJECT OF THE INVENTION The present invention may be included in the technical field of household utensils and equipment, in particular kitchen utensils.

More specifically, the object of the invention refers to a support for keeping kitchen utensils under hygienic conditions.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

Currently, there are supports and bases for placing or laying the kitchen utensils while preparing and cooking the food, in general these can be from supports made of wood or porcelain to those being disposable and made of paper.

Therefore, an aspect of the present invention refers to a device for keeping kitchen utensils under hygienic conditions comprising: - a support characterized in that it comprises at least one closed side wall, a base and a cover,

- a utensil inlet and outlet orifice in the cover, and

- at least one protecting tab in the inlet and outlet orifice of the cover,

where the utensil is introduced through the orifice inside the support and the tab orifice protects the utensil from pollution and/or insects from the environment.

In a preferred embodiment, the support has at least one ventilation hole. In another preferred embodiment, the support is made of ceramic and/or plastic.

In another preferred embodiment the protecting tab is made of silicone and/or plastic.
