And for its next trick...
When we say this kitchen tool is multi-talented—we mean it. Made from extra-tough silicone, this pot insert is, well, way more than just that. Sure, you can steam veggies in it, cook pasta to al dente perfection (and then transfer to the sink using those helpful tabs) or anything you’d like to lift out of a pot in one fell swoop. You can also use it as a colander, easy. But get this: When collapsed, it instantly becomes a splatter screen or trivet and a clever small-spaces storage solution. All that’s left to do is give it a round of applause.
