Pierced Straining Ladle

Pierced Straining Ladle

The pierced ladle is the kitchen's quiet multitasker—equally at home straining pasta, serving soups while separating broth, or working over a colander to drain stockpot contents. The perforated design means function follows form naturally.

The details

At 12.75 inches long with a 3.25-inch-wide bowl, RSVP's Pierced Straining Ladle has the generous capacity of a traditional ladle but with 18/8 stainless steel strategically perforated throughout the bowl. The holes are precisely sized: large enough to drain liquid freely but small enough to contain pasta shapes, vegetables, and other solid ingredients. The construction is all business—highly polished stainless steel that's built to last through years of regular use. The deep bowl holds a substantial quantity, while the perforations ensure that solids separate from liquids naturally as you ladle.
