Norpro 642 Stainless Steel Chinois with Stand and Pestle Set, Bouillon Strainer, Jelly Strainer, China Cap

This can be used for making applesauce or even as a potato ricer. I grew up with one in my family. They were larger back then but this one has all the pieces and all the function. The pestle/mallet is a perfect fit.

Works great!

This works really well for cabbing. Very sturdy and sleek design. Arrived quickly and is a great value for price.

Product is as advertised. Reminds me of one my mother had.

Mom used it for the first time worked pretty well!!! And I’m not writing any more reviews. I’m tired.

The actual chinoise is great, and the pestle is very nice, but I primarily bought this one because of the stand, which has been a little disappointing so far. I don't have a bowl or a pot that fits this. You need a bowl with either the exact diameter needed, a cambro (in which case you don't need the stand anyways), or a wide, flat bottom bowl so the stand fits. I even bought a new bowl trying to make this work and it did not. I wish the stand was more adaptable. Great in theory.Using this for turmeric juice with a cheesecloth inside. Much easier than the round strainers I'd been using, and did not stain. I'll likely use this again, I just need to fiddle with my set-up

I had one about 50 years old. I bought this one to replace it. The stand makes such a difference. I put the whole thing in my big heating pot. It juiced the tomatoes just as fast as my crank kind and all I had to do was remove the strainer and heat the juice. No transfers. So glad I bought it.

This reminded me of what my grandma used to make applesauce. I bought it for that reason and it works great!
