Spoon, in a big way, with Della (5)

I believe the answer is:

ladle

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'spoon' is the definition.
(I know that ladle is a type of spoon)

'a big way with della' is the wordplay.
'della' anagrams to 'LADLE'.
Though, I am not sure how the anagram is indicated.

'in' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?
