Colander Vs Sieve: What's The Actual Difference? - Tasting Table

A colander is a freestanding bowl often made from food-grade material, such as stainless steel or silicone, with coarse holes. Its day-to-day uses include straining pasta, rinsing produce, or draining canned beans. A sieve, on the other hand, is made from a fine mesh and is ideal for sifting, aerating, or straining smaller particles. Neither colander nor sieve should be confused with a chinois however, an additional type of strainer used in professional kitchens, specifically to create smooth sauces.
