The oval mesh filter gives liquid a way to drain as you scoop, helping you transfer food with less unwanted liquid. This stainless skimmer keeps lifting and straining together in one utensil, rather than making you juggle a spoon and a separate strainer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe problem in numbers\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUS fire departments responded to an estimated 170,000 home cooking fires.

Rather than settling for a single size, you can select 31 × 11 cm, 33.5 × 13 cm, or 35 × 15 cm to fit your cooking setup. Each option comes in silver, with the same straightforward filtering design for cooking and frying.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat exactly do you get?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYour options are a silver, oval mesh skimmer in your selected size: 12.20 × 4.33 inches (31 × 11 cm), 13.19 × 5.12 inches (33.5 × 13 cm), or 13.78 × 5.91 inches (35 × 15 cm). Stainless steel construction is shared across the three size choices, giving you the same material and style whichever dimensions you select.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe product photographs show a shallow wire basket built from concentric rings with supporting spokes, connected to a metal shaft and a rounded metal grip. This open construction is intended for lifting food while liquid passes through the gaps. It is not a fine woven mesh sieve for flour or tiny particles. Choose a basket size that suits the food you want to lift and the opening of the pan you normally use. The three variants share the same silver finish and general construction, but differ in their listed dimensions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eYour order contains one complete utensil in the selected size, including its attached basket, shaft and handle. It does not include a pan, bowl, plate, food or an additional strainer. Lifestyle photographs demonstrate lifting and draining rather than showing items bundled with the product. The dimension choices are 31 x 11 cm, 33.5 x 13 cm and 35 x 15 cm, with approximate manual measurement tolerance of 1 cm. Check the selected size before ordering; a larger basket is not supplied alongside a smaller one.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhen transferring cooked food, lift it above the pan briefly so excess cooking liquid can return through the open wire basket before moving it to a serving dish. Keep your hand on the handle and clear of the basket and hot cookware. The utensil is a practical lifting and draining tool, not a device for preventing cooking fires or guaranteeing protection from burns. The smooth metal grip has a hanging opening at the end for storage when the utensil is no longer in use.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"HOUSELAND","offers":[{"title":"Silver \/ 13.2 x 5.1 in (33.5 x 13 cm)","offer_id":46156333514799,"sku":"14:193#silver;5:100014064#33.5x13cm","price":34.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Silver \/ 12.2 x 4.3 in (31 x 11 cm)","offer_id":46156333547567,"sku":"14:193#silver;5:100014066#31x11cm","price":34.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Silver \/ 13.8 x 5.9 in (35 x 15 cm)","offer_id":46156333580335,"sku":"14:193#silver;5:361386#35x15cm","price":34.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0776\/4046\/6479\/files\/gallery_01_front1_problem_fe4b600b-8d0c-46cc-8345-c9084bc49733.jpg?v=1791407930","url":"https:\/\/thehouseland.com\/products\/stainless-steel-skimmer-oval-mesh-kitchen-strainer-for-cooking-and-frying-available-in-three-sizes","provider":"HOUSELAND","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
