Review on ๐Ÿง€ Grade 90 Cheesecloth - 54 Sq Feet - 100% Unbleached Cotton Fabric - Ultra Fine Reusable Cooking & Straining Cloth (Grade 90-6Yards) by Luis Mercado

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Ideal for bags of fresh herbs --

The fine mesh of this gauze is ideal for packaging a variety of fresh herbs used in soups and stews. This makes it so easy to extract leaves and stems in one step rather than looking for large chunks that can cause choking, especially bay leaves. The fabric is durable and doesn't tear easily. It is also much thinner than standard varieties, which cannot prevent smaller herb leaves from leaching out during cooking. I simply take a bunch of herbs, wrap them in a cloth, fold the ends into a pouch, and tie the ends together with a piece of kitchen twineโ€”long enough to wrap a pot handle for one puff. I also use this cheesecloth to skim excess fat from sauces and soups, strain herbs for pan sauces, and squeeze excess water from cooked spinach or vegetable spirals. It's also great for making potato pies when you need grated potato starch for binding and flavoring.
