Amazon.com Review

Named for its weblike design, this spider skimmer from Helen's Asian Kitchen line is a handy, versatile tool for any food that needs quick draining. Crafted from rustproof stainless steel, the skimmer is sturdy and lightweight with a rounded shape that keeps hold of dumplings, wontons, and raviolis. Its netted design drains oils and water quickly and efficiently for better cooking results, and its bamboo handle is comfortable and heat-resistant. Measuring 5 inches in diameter, the skimmer is safe in the dishwasher for easy cleanup. A 7-inch version is also available. --Emily Bedard

Product Description

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.

5.0 out of 5 stars Love this, June 21, 2008

By	G. WHITTINGTON (GA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This is my 3rd skimmer. I really like this one and the larger one. I live on the Georgia coast & we do a lot of cooking outside all year round. These are great for Low Country Boils. We use it mostly for frying and boiling seafood, but it works great for veggies also.

5.0 out of 5 stars Quality spider, June 4, 2008

By	jess (philadelphia) - See all my reviews

I needed a kitchen spider, and after shopping around in some grocery stores, I couldn't find one that had a sturdy enougy handle. This is pretty much exactly what I was looking for.

I have wanted a spider for some time and finally got around to purchasing one. The size is perfect for my use. It was received sooner than I anticipated and in good condition. Helen's Asian Kitchen delivered exactly what was advertised at a great price. I will purchase from them again when I need an item that they sell.
