Tovolo Soak N’ Strain Colander

Cleaning fruits and vegetables has never been easier than with the Tovolo Soak N’ Strain Colander. This handy strainer allows you to thoroughly clean your produce and then drain away the liquid. The simple, yet effective design is a major gamechanger.



I am a big gardener, and harvest time is one of the most exciting, but washing all the freshly picked produce can be a pain. This seemingly simple tool makes the process so much more enjoyable. The clever form makes it so quick to wash food thoroughly. 



Using this kitchen tool is easy. Just fill it with produce, add water, and move the food around with your hands or tongs. Then with a tilt, all the water can be drained through the holes and into the sink. This eliminates the need to use multiple bowls and tools just to clean your fruits and vegetables. It comes with your choice of 1.5-quart, 3-quart, and 5-quart capacity. Even with the smallest size you can go through pounds in just a few minutes. You can also remove the mixing bowl and use it to serve; this is perfect for washing lettuce and then making a salad, all in one tool!



Smaller elements of the design add to the ease of use. I like that it has small feet on the bottom to keep it above the surface it stands on. The pour spout is also well-thought-out and helps direct the water. This colander from Tovolo really is a small, but important kitchen upgrade!
