Helen's Asian Kitchen stainless steel strainer featrues a 5-inch diameter stainless steel bowl that won't rust and is dishwasher safe. The bamboo handle is non-conductive so it does not transfer heat. Discover what cooks in the orient have known for centuries. The web-like design of the bowl quickly whicks away oils, water and broth. This means, when frying, the strainer quickly disipates the oil away from the food leaving a crisp, crunchy coating. When pulling food out of boiling water or broth, the open, web shape leaves the liquid behind.

Great for frying May 10, 2010
By Charmaine Navarrette This has been the best scoop for deep frying that I have ever owned. You wouldnt know it until you actually use it but it allows you to remove both large and small objects from the boiling oil before they burn and with minimul effort. It has held up well through use also.

The 5 inch model is the way to go! Oct 16, 2010
By An Espresso Fanatic While looking at this product, I came across other models that were larger. Based on some of the other reviews I decided to go with this model, and I was glad that I did.
It really is the perfect size for its intended purpose - to remove items that have been frying in oil, OR to remove pasta from boiling water. It does a great job for both.
The construction seems sturdy and well built, and I like the wooden handle because it stays cool to the touch.

Spider skimmers are larger than you think, but this one is the perfect size, fits into our smallest saucepan. A necessity for anyone who does a lot of boiling . . .

Works great! Jun 05, 2011
By Kat

Works great. Still going strong. A little pain to clean by hand cause the sponge will start to break on it. I don't recommend that you soak it (or anything wooden) as it will make it crack easier. But I recommend it and I'm glad I purchased it.
