Fantes Cousin Luigi's Collapsible Pasta Drying Rack dries large batches of noodles at once to keep them from sticking when stored or cooked. Nothing tastes better than homemade pasta. Fresh pasta made in advance can be dried and stored for later use, or hung to keep it from sticking until the cooking pot is at a rolling boil. This Collapsible Pasta Drying Rack features 16 built-in rods (each measuring 8-inches long) that fan out and stagger to maximize drying space. Each rod supports up to a quarter pound, while the whole drying rack can hold up to 4.5-pounds of pasta strands. It expands to 18.5 x 17.75 x 12-inches, then folds to 16.5 x 10 x 2.5-inches for space-saving storage. The transfer wand easily picks up freshly cut pasta and transports it to the drying rack or cooking pot, then stores neatly in the central column when not in use. It’s ideal for drying spaghetti, fettuccine, angel hair, linguini, long fusilli, lasagna, pappardelle, lo mein, and other long noodles. Its non-slip feet keep the rack in place during use and protect counters. Made from stainless steel, BPA-free plastic, and rubber, Cousin Luigi's Collapsible Pasta Drying Rack is sturdy and durable, and wipes clean with a dry cloth or brush.
