The Chef Aid 12 cm Metal Strainer is a versatile, compact sieve designed to make everyday kitchen prep easier. With a fine stainless‑steel mesh and sturdy wire frame, it rapidly drains water or liquids while retaining solids — ideal for rinsing rice, grains, pulses or draining pasta. Its 12 cm diameter makes it handy for small to medium‑volume tasks, whether you’re preparing ingredients for dinner or washing fruits and vegetables.
Lightweight yet durable, this strainer is also well suited for finer kitchen work like straining sauces, broths, tea leaves or sifting dry ingredients. The stainless‑steel build resists rust, staining and odour absorption, ensuring long-lasting hygiene and easy cleaning. A small strainer like this becomes an indispensable everyday tool in both busy kitchens and minimal setups.
