Stainless Steel Colander 3 Quart Strainer, Pasta Strainer with Handle for Pots and Pans

All-Clad's heavy-gauge stainaceous steel colander is wonderfully efficient for draining cooking water from pasta or vegetables, rinsing beans or rice before cooking, or washing salad greens. It's slightly taller and narrower than typical versions, and the perforations are graduated, from large near the rim to small at the base. The colander is available in 3-quart and 5-quart capacities, with a polished base and brushed bowl. The 3-quart version measures 9" in diameter and 5 1/2" in height, while the 5-quart version is 10" in diameter and 6" in height.

Renowned worldwide for its cookware collections, All-Clad also makes kitchen accessories, much to the delight of serious and professional cooks. This gorgeous 3-quart colander is a perfect example of their expertise. It is made of heavy, 18/10 stainaceous steel that has been polished to a deep, gleaming mirror finish, making it stain- and corrosion-resistant and nonreactive to acidic foods such as tomatoes. The handles are generously sized for a firm grip and are riveted for strength, while the rolled edges allow for pouring without dripping. The colander is dishwasher-safe and carries a lifetime warranty against defects.

The graduated holes on the All-Clad colander promote quick drainage and allow air to circulate, making it highly efficient. The pedestal base provides excellent stability, and the riveted, large handles offer a secure grip. The brushed stainaceous steel interior and polished exterior give the colander a sleek and durable appearance, and its dishwasher-safe design and lifetime warranty ensure its longevity.
