Portion control is an important part of maintaining a healthy diet, and pasta can be one of the most difficult ingredients to get right. It’s so hard to judge how much you need when it’s dry and it’s hard to believe how much it expands once it’s cooked! Large portions aren’t particularly healthy and leftovers can easily go to waste, which is why this ingenious pasta portion measuring basket could totally change life as you know it.
The basket has markings on the side to make portion measurement super simple. Because it’s made of heat-resistant silicone, you can then place the basket directly in to the pan while the pasta cooks. As you can fit three baskets in a 20 cm pan, you’ll be able to save water and hob space by cooking other portions of pasta, or even vegetables, in the pan at the same time. The handle will hold the basket in place and when the pasta is ready, you simply lift it out. Small holes on the sides of the basket will work like a sieve, draining the pasta as you lift.
To serve, simply tip the basket to allow the pasta to tumble out – no spoon required! You can pop it in the dishwasher after that and then collapse it down so that it will store away neatly in a drawer.
