From pasta to vegetables, colanders are the perfect way to wash and rinse your food. This stainless steel colander does exactly that, and then some. Designed with a polished, corrosion-resistant surface, this colander features tiny, precision pierced holes from top to bottom that allow water to drain freely. A wide rim base holds it above the floor of the sink and provides stability when pouring hot water into the colander. Plus, it can easily hold up five/three quarts of liquid.
