Kitchens that strain stock, bisque and sauce in volume need a strainer that keeps its shape under heavy loads. The Matfer Bourgeat 10-inch Exoglass Bouillon Strainer has a wide cone that moves large quantities of liquid quickly, and its Exoglass construction outlasts stainless steel strainers that dent, warp or separate at the rim. Michelin-starred teams worldwide rely on Matfer’s Exoglass strainers for clear stocks and smooth sauces.
The fine stainless steel mesh is molded into the Exoglass frame during manufacture, eliminating the crimped edges where conventional strainers loosen, sag and trap food. Two protective reinforcement wires hold the cone’s shape under the weight of bones, vegetables and shells. The frame stays cool to the touch, and a thumb rest on the insulated handle gives control while you pour.
Exoglass is non-porous, so it will not stain, hold odors or leach chemicals into food, and it is rated for constant use up to 430°F. A hanging loop keeps it off the counter between uses.
Choosing a Size
This 10-inch is sized for stock production and large batches. For sauces and smaller quantities, the Matfer Bourgeat 8-inch Exoglass Bouillon Strainer is easier to control.
