Mesh colander, ø 22 cm

The fine mesh is a lifesaver for catching stray quinoa grains when I rinse them, and the 22 cm size fits perfectly in my sink without being bulky. Drains pasta water noticeably faster than my old plastic colander.

The fine mesh catches every tiny seed and bit of herb when I rinse quinoa, which is exactly what I needed. At 22 cm it's a great size for draining a standard pot of pasta without being bulky. Very happy with how sturdy it feels for the price.

I mostly use this for rinsing berries, and the fine mesh actually keeps all the little seeds from escaping. The 22 cm size is perfect for a standard sink, though I wish the handle had a rubber grip for comfort.
