Joyce Chen Rice Washer Colander

The integrated agitator bumps are designed to gently scrub your grains or produce. They help loosen and remove excess starch from rice or stubborn grit from fruits and vegetables more effectively than a smooth-sided bowl.

Yes, the angled design allows you to tilt the basin easily, which directs water toward the drain holes. This makes it much simpler to pour out the final bit of rinse water without having to awkwardly maneuver the entire bowl.

With dimensions of 10.60 x 9.50 x 5.40 inches, this basin is quite spacious. It comfortably handles enough rice or produce for a standard family meal, though it is best suited for medium-to-large batches rather than single-serving portions.

Yes, this colander is dishwasher safe. Because it is made from heavy-gauge stainless steel, it is durable enough to withstand regular dishwasher cycles without warping or rusting.

The drain holes are sized specifically for rice and larger grains. While standard white or brown rice will stay contained, very fine grains like quinoa or amaranth may slip through, so you might want to use a fine-mesh sieve for those specific ingredients.
