Hvad är betydelsen av episodtitelns "The Secret of Spoons"?

wikia noter :

The title of the episode is in reference to an "old" song about stirring coffee that Czernobog sings while he's playing checkers with Shadow.

My love made the sweetest coffee
With no sugar at all
She only stirred with her spoon and it was done
Now my drink is bitter
The secret of spoons forgotten
When my voice breaks on this song
Remember old love gone
And drink bitter coffee

Showrunners Bryan Fuller och Michael Green förklara titelens innebörd till Underhållning Weekly:

ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY: The episode’s title, “The Secret of Spoons,” is a lyric we hear in Czernobog’s song during checkers. What does it mean?

MICHAEL GREEN: We wanted to make that last scene where they play checkers as rich and cinematic as possible, and we had this idea that he might sing while doing it. We thought a lot about where they came from and what the type of music was—these sort of atonal, off-tempo folk songs—and the idea of immigrants and what you choose to bring with you in your small beliefs.

A personal story: We were in the middle of writing this when I woke up one morning and was thinking about it while making coffee. I have this sugar bowl and spoon from my favorite aunt who passed away a few years ago, and before she died, I told her son, kind of jokingly but not, that if she ever passed away, I wanted to remember her by the sugar bowl and spoon. And sure enough, he sent it to me. It had been with her for decades and was given to her when she was a child, and when you went to her house, she made you coffee and would use these spoons. So, these things just sort of go down in history in a family.

And then we showed [music supervisor] Brian Reitzell the lyrics that we were interested in and said, “Can you write us a song?” And he wrote us this tune that we had stuck in our head for weeks after. It was so charming and small, yet timeless, and regionally correct, and quite beautiful.
