Customer Reviews of Joyce Chen Stainless Steel Strainer 5 Inch
Customer Rating:  Summary: Super Scoops! Love this spider! Comment: Bought both the size 5 and 7. I use BOTH frequently, but size 7 is the one I use almost daily. I scoop vegetables, ravioli and pot stickers out of boiling water safely with the size 7 (to avoid the breakage caused when you dump in a colander)!! The 7 fits in most pots despite the size. I like the size 5 for the frying pans and deep fryer to keep the breading intact or scooping seafood quickly. The wooden handles are long so you can avoid the hot steam and oil! No more carrying dangerously heavy hot pots to the sink. The strainers are sturdy with handles that are very secure. I don't store them in drawers. I like them handy in the counter tool caddy near the range...they clear the cabinets easily. Customer Rating: Summary: gift Comment: Gave this as a gift to my son who uses it making seafood. He is very pleased. Customer Rating: Summary: Great strainer Comment: It may be just a strainer but I'm finding so many cooking uses for it I wonder how I've cooked without it! It can replace all those old strainer spoons and really drains the liquid. A kitchen "must-have". Customer Rating:  Summary: frying strainer Comment: I have needed this for a long time. We deep fry in a dutch oven and have always had a problem getting hot food out of the pot. This is a perfect size (5") and stainless steel and allows me to get a lot of food out in a hurry. Customer Rating: Summary: Well made kitchen tool Comment: I was surprised how sturdy this strainer is made. The bamboo handle is thick and well attached to the basket. I also like the percent of open area to wire in the basket which strains larger items really fast. This is going to replace my slotted spoon for most chores.

Choosing Appliance -> Whip / Whisk Many still consider a whip as a "gourmet" piece of kitchen equipment. Nothing could be further from the truth. It is as essential as a kitchen stove and should be in everyone's kitchen. Nothing works better for mixing a multitude of different preparations or for making sauces or gravy. Buy a solid stainless steel whip with moderately stiff wires. Very thin wires are for mixing delicate things like egg whites or whipped cream. Very thick, solid wires are for mixing stiff dough. Choosing Appliance -> Cooking Pans This is another area where spending money is justified. The best pans combine different metals like aluminum or copper on the outside and stainless steel on the inside. Aluminum and copper are valued for their ability to spread heat evenly over the entire pan, and stainless steel is valued for its non-reactive qualities. Buy pans which are heavy and thick with solid handles that are well fastened to the pot. As with knives, buy the highest quality cooking pans you can afford one at a time, starting with a saute pan and a 3 qt. sauce pan. They will last forever. At some point, a stock pot (which will be especially pricey) should be considered for serious cooking. Joyce Chen Stainless Steel Strainer 5 Inch
