The Chef Aid 18 cm Metal Tinned Strainer is a reliable, multipurpose kitchen essential designed to handle everyday food‑preparation tasks with ease. Its fine metal mesh allows water and liquids to drain quickly while retaining solids — making it ideal for rinsing rice, pulses, grains, pasta or vegetables, and draining cooked food after boiling or blanching. The sturdy tinned metal build ensures the strainer remains stable and resistant to rust even after repeated contact with water and acidic foods.
Compact but roomy enough for small to mid‑volume kitchen tasks, this strainer is equally handy for draining sauces, stocks or broths, sifting flour, washing fruits and herbs, or straining soups. Its simple, easy-to-clean stainless steel construction means you avoid stains or odour retention — giving you a hygienic, long‑lasting tool you can depend on.
