The Everyday Rice Colander
Rinsing rice properly before cooking is one of the most important steps in achieving perfectly fluffy, separated grains — and it requires a colander with holes small enough to hold the rice while the starchy water drains away. This 24cm Heavy Duty Rice Colander is specifically designed for that task, with a fine mesh that holds every grain securely while allowing water to drain freely and quickly.
At 24cm, it’s the perfect everyday size for a typical family portion of rice — large enough to handle a generous amount without being cumbersome to store. Also available in the larger 28cm size for bigger family portions and batch cooking.
Care Instructions
