CHEF'S COMPANION Silver Mesh Strainer with Handle and Hanger 16cm Diameter

Sized for precision without the bulk, the CHEF’S COMPANION Silver Mesh Strainer with Handle and Hanger (16cm Diameter) is your everyday go‑to for quick, clean tasks from sifting flour to rinsing small grains and berries. The fine stainless‑steel mesh filters out seeds, pulp, and lumps while letting liquids flow smoothly, giving you silky sauces, clear stocks, grit‑free quinoa, and perfectly dusted desserts. A sturdy, polished rim keeps the basket round and stable under pressure, and the long, comfortable handle provides safe reach over hot pots and deep sinks for splash‑free draining. The integrated hanger rests neatly on the rims of bowls and saucepans for hands‑free straining and doubles as a loop for tidy storage between uses. Compact at 16cm, it’s ideal for single portions, tea leaves, cocktail finishes, sieving icing sugar or cocoa, and blanching small batches of veg—small enough to manoeuvre easily, yet roomy enough to be genuinely useful. Lightweight, rust‑resistant, and easy to clean, it rinses in seconds and is top‑rack dishwasher safe. Pro tip: for ultra‑fine results like clarified butter or jam, line the mesh with cheesecloth; to minimise sticking on hot tasks, pre‑warm the mesh briefly over steam before pouring. Reliable, versatile, and built for daily service, this mid‑small strainer keeps your prep precise and your kitchen running smoothly.
