When it comes to cooking and baking, at one time or another you will use a strainer. There are many different types of strainers made for different purposes. Bellemain makes a wonderful set to prepare you for all your straining needs. Whether you are straining wet or dry goods having the right strainer makes your time in the kitchen a breeze. Having the wrong strainer however, causes wasted products, time and money.
Whether you're straining the leaves from a single cup of tea or sifting a cake's worth of flour, this versatile trio will handle just about any type or size of sieving job in the kitchen.
Fine Mesh Works with Most Liquid and Dry Ingredients
When it comes to large pieces, such as vegetables used in making stock, any old strainer will do. But what if you're rinsing tiny grains of quinoa ... straining raspberry seeds from your marmalade ... dusting confectioner's sugar onto a cake? You need a finer mesh like the Bellemain's.
Graduated Sizes Fit a Variety of Containers
Get maximum straining efficiency by choosing the size that's right for the task at hand. The smallest (3-1/8") fits a large mug, perfect for pouring loose leaf teas through. The medium strainer (5-1/2") is great for washing grains, straining sauces and other small batch jobs. The large one (7-7/8") sifts flour, washes fruit and drains pasta. The three sizes nest together for space-saving storage.
Hanging/Support Loops
Enjoy convenient, hands-free straining, thanks to the sturdy loop opposite the handle. It allows the strainer to rest on a bowl or pot while you juice lemons or break eggs into it. This is especially helpful if the food you're straining is heavy or you don't have much hand strength. When not in use, the loop can be used as a hanging hook.
Too many times I have come across the most ridiculous strainers. The holes are too big, the mesh is to frail or it simply falls apart. When it comes to cooking you need good quality products to ensure wonderful results and efficient time management. The Bellemain Stainless Steel Mesh Strainer Set is very nice. The mesh is very durable and not flimsy in the least. The extra touch of the engraved Bellemain logo is elegant and surprising to be found on such an inexpensive set. Honestly for the amount you pay you expect less but that's not the case with Bellemain. They skimp on the price but go above and beyond on quality. I am very familiar with the Bellemain company and their products are crafted to last. The set rest easily on your cooking pot. Handles and tips can be hung by a hook for easy storage. The best part about this set is that it is Stainless Steel. No worries about plastics, teflon, or any other product that normally could possibly wreak havoc on your meal. This set is outstanding and recommended for any kitchen.
