Thank You Chefs Catalog!

I follow Chefs Catalog on Twitter. (@CHEFSCatalog) They have all sorts of fun questions, posts, and contests. Recently, they had a contest for "name this kitchen tool". If you guessed correctly and were randomly chosen from correct responses, you won the item. I won a Salad Spinner. I was pretty excited. Really? From Chefs Catalog? I love their catalog.

Last Saturday, the door bell rang and I thought...who is that? I opened the door to a nice FedEx man holding a Chefs box. Ooooo I thought, my salad spinner! I quickly signed and dashed back inside to open my box.

Aren't food gifts the BEST?

Ooo the lastest catalog too. :)

I just had to take it for a spin. Ha...no pun intended. I'm sorry to say I only had bagged salad on hand.

Rinse your lettuce in the colander like insert.

Place the lid on top. Pump the black knob on top a few times and voila! Washed lettuce.
Look at the extra water left behind!

Using the salad spinner helps to extract the extra water from your lettuce which makes a fresher, cleaner, crisper salad. It's great! Thank you so much Chefs Catalog!
