When we first saw the Scoop Colander from Joseph Joseph we were a little skeptical. We were sure the perforated scooplike ladle would work great for straining cold foods and even boiling pasta. But deep-frying? Wouldn't the plastic melt or leach into the oil? Turns out the scoop isn't plastic; it's nylon, and it's heat-safe up to 480 degrees.
It's also dishwasher-safe and comes in red, black, green and purple.
