Tsatsal<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: 'book antiqua', palatino, serif; font-size: 14pt;\">Tsatsal is a flat (unpainted) wooden spoon with 9 carved indentations. Mongolians like the number 9 because it is a result of multiplying 3 by 3. In other words, it is a milk spoon for tossing milk into the air, therefore not used for eating and drinking purposes. Mongolians are very spiritual people, they think that milk is the representation of a pure heart that\u2019s why they offer milk by sprinkling it to people or nature.<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"video-container\">\n<blockquote class=\"wp-embedded-content\" data-secret=\"7Sx6vz8iVJ\"><p><a href=\"https:\/\/mongolianstore.com\/product\/tsatsal\/\">Tsatsal<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><iframe class=\"wp-embedded-content\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts\" security=\"restricted\" style=\"position: absolute; clip: rect(1px, 1px, 1px, 1px);\" title=\"&#8220;Tsatsal&#8221; &#8212; Mongulai\" src=\"https:\/\/mongolianstore.com\/product\/tsatsal\/embed\/#?secret=wMJlUrTYPs#?secret=7Sx6vz8iVJ\" data-secret=\"7Sx6vz8iVJ\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\" frameborder=\"0\" marginwidth=\"0\" marginheight=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n<h2><span style=\"font-family: 'book antiqua', palatino, serif; font-size: 24pt;\">2.
