How to use

Place food items into the colander and hold it under running water to rinse, or pour cooked food into the colander to drain hot water. Use the handles or rim to steady the colander while shaking gently to remove excess water. After use, wash the colander with warm soapy water and rinse thoroughly; dry before storing to maintain the metal finish.

Usage recommendations

For best results, avoid prolonged exposure to highly acidic cleaners or abrasive scouring pads that can damage the finish. When draining very small items, consider lining the colander with a fine mesh or using a smaller sieve to prevent loss of ingredients. Allow hot items to cool slightly before handling to avoid heat transfer through the metal.
