Chinois Pestle, Stand & Strainer

Chefs use conical strainers like ours to make ultrasmooth soups and sauces as well as clear stocks. The stainless-steel mesh prevents lumps, seeds and skins from passing through. A beech pestle will help push denser ingredients through the mesh, and with the assistance of the stainless-steel stand, the chinois can be stabilized over a pot. Wash by hand. Chinois, 8" diam., 8 1/2" high overall; pestle, 12" long; stand, 7" diam., 11" high. A Williams-Sonoma exclusive.
