Product details
This is a stainless steel skimmer for lifting pasta, noodles and vegetables out of boiling water. Pouring a whole pot into a colander is heavy and awkward when you only need one portion. With this, you scoop the food out and the water drains back into the pot, ready for the next batch.

The shallow bowl is stainless steel punched with small round holes and finished with a smooth rolled rim. Noodles rest on it instead of tangling in wire loops, and slide off when you tip it. Two parallel steel wires join the bowl to a flat wooden handle, which is edged in steel and has a small hanging hole at the end.

The long handle keeps your hand above the steam. It arrives in one piece with nothing to assemble. Wash it by hand and dry it before hanging it up, so the wooden handle does not soak. Full measurements are in the specifications below.

  • A very functional strainer, especially for those who want to remove a larger amount of solid food (grains, dough) from liquid in a pot, for example. It would be interesting to evaluate its durability.

Questions

Contact us

How big is it?
The bowl is 5.5 in across and the skimmer is 14.2 in long overall. It holds a portion of pasta or a handful of vegetables.

Is it mesh or perforated?
Perforated. The bowl is stainless steel punched with small round holes, not woven wire, so it is stiff and easy to clean.

Can it go in the dishwasher?
We recommend washing it by hand, because of the wooden handle. Dry it before you hang it up.

Can I use it for frying?
Yes. The steel bowl lifts food out of hot oil and lets it drain. Keep the wooden handle away from the oil and the flame.

Can I hang it up?
Yes. There is a small hole at the end of the handle for a hook or nail.

Does it need assembling?
No. It arrives in one piece, ready to use.

What is it made of?
A stainless steel bowl and twin-wire stem, with a natural wooden handle edged in steel. The wood grain varies a little from piece to piece.
