Setup, Compatibility & Care
There is no complex setup required; the colander is ready for use immediately upon unboxing. For maintenance, simply place the colander in the dishwasher for a thorough clean. While the material is designed to be stain-resistant, it is recommended to rinse it immediately after using it with highly pigmented foods like beets or turmeric to maintain the cream finish. Ensure the colander is completely dry before storing it in a cupboard to prevent moisture buildup.
