Fine Mesh Kitchen Sieve Set of Three for Pasta, Rice and Noodles in 18/8 Stainless Steel by MIU

One strainer rarely suits every job: a small one is too tiny for a pot of spaghetti, and a big colander is overkill for a cup of rice. A graduated set solves that problem neatly.

MIU's three-piece collection covers small, medium and large tasks with sizes of 12.7cm, 17.7cm and 20.3cm. Each one is made from 18/8 stainless steel with a fine mesh screen, making them well suited to draining pasta and noodles, washing rice or rinsing ingredients ahead of cooking. Strong construction means they handle daily use with confidence, and once the cooking is finished they can go straight into the dishwasher.
