dancyu DA-36 Pot Set with Wooden Handle Strainer 22cm I bought this because I thought a large pot with a strainer would be convenient for boiling noodles, but it was too big for me. I've used it about 5 times to boil somen, soba, and ramen. I haven't used it for stir-frying or simmering. If you boil with the strainer inside, the lid won't close properly as shown in photo 3. The strainer is quite hard, to the point where it can scratch the back of your hand. Size...
