A colander is a kitchen essential for rinsing berries, draining pasta, and washing and draining fruits and vegetables. It's also perfect for draining and rinsing canned beans or other vegetables, and for straining the bones and vegetables from soup stock. This handy plastic colander has large slots for quick draining and feet that raise the bowl so it can drain completely so the food won't be sitting in liquid when the colander rests on a surface. The side grips have a rubberized surface that offer a secure hold, even when the colander or your hands are wet or greasy. This has a three-quart capacity, so there's plenty of room to drain noodles for your favorite pasta salad, yet it's not too bulky. At 9.5" long, 13" wide, and 5.5" high, this will fit neatly in your cabinet or pantry with your favorite mixing bowls. It's not just all about work, though, since the bright white body and black handles will look attractive in any kitchen.
