The School of Wok Spider Strainer is a traditional Chinese-style cooking utensil designed for draining, lifting and transferring food during wok cooking. Its stainless steel bird’s nest basket is particularly useful for deep frying, shallow frying, poaching, blanching and boiling, allowing food to be lifted from hot oil or cooking liquid while excess liquid drains back into the wok or pan.

The 15 cm strainer head offers a practical surface area for scooping ingredients, while the 37.5 cm overall length provides useful reach when cooking in a wok. The stainless steel construction is durable and suitable for regular kitchen use, while the natural bamboo handle provides a comfortable grip.

The spider strainer is especially useful alongside carbon steel woks, where it can be used to remove fried foods, noodles, dumplings, vegetables and other ingredients without having to pour the contents of a wok through a separate colander. Its lightweight construction makes it convenient for repeated lifting and draining during cooking.

Developed by School of Wok and chef Jeremy Pang, the utensil reflects traditional Chinese cooking techniques while providing a practical tool for modern home kitchens.
