For making gravies and sauces, this separator helps you save the flavor, straining out greasy fat. To use, pour liquid into the separator. Fat rises to the top, while leaner parts settle to the bottom. The heat-resistant strainer catches unwanted food bits, and the stopper prevents fat from entering the spout when you pour liquid back into your pot to finish cooking. A shield stops fat from spilling over the top of the separator. Measurement markings add convenience, and the non-slip handle provides a comfortable grip. Holds four cups.
by Jean (Galeton, PA) 4 reviews I have been wanting one of these for years and my husband purchased it for me for Christmas. It worked fantastic. I always roast a duckling for Christmas for us and as you know it has quite a lot of fat. However using this product made my gravy just perfect this year. No hard work trying to seperate the fat from the juices. Thanks for making such a good product
by Irmgard (Reston, VA) 3 reviews I saw it had mixed reviews but was recommended by the Test Kitchen show, so I thought I'll give it a try. I followed all the directions and pulled the little plug, and it did hold back most of the fat. I also like the built-in strainer at the top. While the best method to degrease your soups, stews, and sauces is still to leave it in the fridge overnight until the fat solidifies and can be scooped off, there's not always time for that and this may well be second best.
by Jet (New York, NY) 3 reviews I love this thing. Separating pan juices has never been easier. The spout nozzle thing is ingenious and takes care of a problem that has long bedeviled me.
