How To Steam An Artichoke Without A Steamer (four Steps)
A colander is a metal, plastic or ceramic bowl with a perforated bottom and sides. For this straightforward DIY undertaking, you have to: a colander (preferably chrome steel), espresso filters, potting soil, fertilizer (elective). It's also possible to choose to hang <a href="http://www.amazon.com/dp/B013QA3ADE">strainer</a> the colander by its handles with wire or chains to create a hanging plant option. With a collapsible colander, you'll be able to simply use it to sieve the boiled potatoes from the recent water. With a collapsible colander, you can change these cumbersome bowl strainers and make your kitchen a neater and more spacious place to prepare your meals.<img class='alignleft' style='float:left;margin-right:10px;' src='http://www.harrietcarter.com/resources/harrietCarter/images/products/processed/3152-1.zoom.a.jpg' width='252' />
<br/>
<br/>To make use of for straining: Set the colander in the kitchen sink and pour the food that needs to be strained (reminiscent of pasta or beans cooked in water) into the colander. Choose up the colander by the handles and gently tilt it backwards and forwards to allow more liquid to expire; make sure to use oven mitts to keep away from getting burned by the new water.
<br/>
<br/>To make spaetzle: Pour the batter into a colander with large holes, hold the colander over a pot of boiling water, and push the batter by way of the holes with a spatula. Pour about 1 inch of water into the large pot, then place your metallic colander into the pot. Place the prepared artichokes into the metallic colander in the pot, then cowl the pot. For some purpose, I have discovered myself close to a number of colander people in my lifetime.
<br/>
<br/>To make use of for rinsing: Place the strong meals (equivalent to fruits or greens) within the colander that you could rinse. Then maintain the colander below working water within the kitchen sink, gently shaking the colander backwards and forwards to shift the fruits or greens so all sides are rinsed. Leave the pasta or beans within the colander and rinse with running water if desired.<img class='alignleft' style='float:left;margin-right:10px;' src='http://gevin-ent.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/08/Gevin-GVP-3458-As-Seen-on-TV-Collapsible-Colander-with-Extendable-Frame.jpg' width='253' />
