What Customers Ask About This Product
Is it dishwasher safe?
Yes, this strainer is dishwasher safe.
Can it stand in a bowl or pan on its own?

How do I store it?

In our experience...
The conical shape is a deliberate choice, not just tradition. It's specifically designed to strain liquids smoothly and efficiently, which is why the classic chinois shape has stuck around for so long.
Being unbendable matters more than it sounds for a strainer. A handle that flexes under pressure makes straining hot stocks or sauces genuinely awkward, which is exactly what the welded construction avoids.
The resting brackets solve a real two-handed problem. Without them, straining liquid usually needs one hand to hold the strainer steady, whereas this can rest and stabilise itself.
AISI 304 is a meaningfully higher grade than standard stainless steel. It's specifically chosen here for genuine resistance to deformation under intensive, repeated use.
