OXO Good Grips Rice & Small Grains Washing Colander | Slow-Drain for Clean Rinsing

Rinse with Confidence: OXO Good Grips Rice & Small Grains Washing Colander

Meet the OXO Good Grips Rice & Small Grains Washing Colander, thoughtfully designed to support a steady rinse that clears impurities and surface starch from rice, quinoa, buckwheat, barley, and other small grains. The design guides water through at a controlled pace, giving you time to observe how clear the rinsing water becomes as you work.

A standout feature is the visual cue created by the water pooling before it drains. As you rinse, a shallow pool forms; when the water runs clear, you have a helpful, nonverbal signal that the grains are ready for the next step. This little detail can make kitchen workflows smoother and more predictable, especially on busy days.

Small holes, big results

The colander uses compact square holes that prevent tiny grains from slipping through while still allowing water and rinse water to circulate freely. Coupled with extra drain holes in the pour spout, the unit helps remove excess water for a controlled transfer to pots or bowls.

Comfort matters in the kitchen. The soft, non-slip handles stay secure in your grip, whether you’re agitating grains to rinse, shaking off excess water, or pouring into a cooking vessel. This combination of grip, balance, and spacing makes rinsing sessions more comfortable and less fiddly.

Versatile for many grains and more

Beyond rice, this colander performs well with quinoa, buckwheat, barley, and even delicate berries. Its gentle yet effective draining helps preserve shape and texture, making it a practical addition to everyday meal prep and smart kitchen routines.
