Skimmer Maestro MR 1160 – stainless kitchen skimmer for removing food from liquids

Maestro MR 1160 is a stainless kitchen skimmer designed to remove solids from boiling water, hot oil or stock while allowing liquids to drain quickly. The skimmer is suitable for lifting dumplings, vegetables, fried pieces and surface foam, helping maintain clear broths and clean frying oil. Constructed for both home and professional kitchens, it combines a perforated/mesh head with a durable plastic body and a silicone-coated handle for user comfort and grip.

Advantages

The Maestro MR 1160 offers a corrosion-resistant stainless steel head for efficient liquid drainage and gentle handling of food items. Its silicone handle improves grip and heat resistance compared to plain plastic, increasing comfort during prolonged use. Lightweight construction and a long service life make the skimmer practical for frequent kitchen tasks, while the perforated or mesh design ensures quick separation of solids from liquids.

Suitable for

• Removing dumplings, gnocchi and boiled pasta from hot water
• Skimming foam and impurities from stocks and broths
• Retrieving fried pieces or tempura from hot oil
• Separating cooked vegetables from cooking liquid
• Portioning and serving items from pots and deep pans

Key specifications

• Head material: stainless steel mesh/perforated stainless steel
• Handle material: plastic with silicone coating for improved grip
• Intended use: removal and draining of solids from hot liquids
• Suitable environments: domestic and professional kitchens
• Maintenance: easy to clean, suitable for regular washing

How to use

Hold the Maestro MR 1160 by the silicone-coated handle and immerse the stainless head into boiling water, hot oil or stock. Scoop or skim the desired items, allowing liquid to drain through the perforations or mesh before lifting them out. For skimming foam, move the head gently over the surface to collect impurities. After use, rinse or wash according to standard kitchen cleaning practices and let dry before storage.

Usage recommendations

To prolong service life, avoid prolonged exposure of the handle to direct flame and remove stubborn residues shortly after use. Use the skimmer at appropriate depths to minimise oil splatter when frying and rinse promptly to prevent food buildup in the mesh.
