For teenie little greens

January 24, 2022 1:08 AM

I have and love the OXO salad spinner in both large and small sizes. I've been growing microgreens and wishing I had an extra small salad spinner. Can you help me find one?

Cook Pro makes a tiny one but I don't know if it's as tiny as you would like it to be.

You can get food safe mesh bags to put the greens in and then use whatever size spinner. You'll probably want 2 bags for balancing. This is how I spin dry pea shoots (though at a big scale). I imagine you can just use the bags for storage in your fridge after spinning.

The small Oxo one seems pretty good for this- what don't you like about it for microgreens?

Response by poster: pinochiette- I use it to store greens in the fridge so it would be nice to have something that takes up less space when I only have a small volume of greens. Also, the holes in the basket are big enough they let some microgreens through.

The mesh bag idea is very promising.
