Fox Run Chinois Food Press

A chinois is designed for precision. While a standard colander is for draining pasta or washing vegetables, the fine-mesh construction of this chinois is specifically engineered to strain out seeds, skins, and fibers, resulting in exceptionally smooth stocks, purees, and sauces.

Yes. The chinois features an assist handle that allows you to securely rest the strainer over most standard pots and bowls, keeping it stable while you work with hot liquids.

The pestle is essential for getting the most out of your ingredients. By using it to press solids against the fine mesh, you extract every bit of flavor and liquid, which is the key to achieving the refined textures this tool is known for.

Because the mesh is fine, food particles can sometimes get stuck. We recommend rinsing it immediately after use with warm, soapy water and using a soft brush to gently dislodge any trapped debris before it dries.

The strainer bowl has a diameter of 7 inches, which provides a generous surface area for straining while remaining compact enough for easy storage in most kitchen cabinets.
