Spinning Chef

Every household needs a simple but reliable salad spinner… and Tupperware's Salad Spinner stands out as the preferred choice.

Bagged salads may be convenient, but nothing's tastier than salad you make yourself with produce that you've chosen or grown. You’ll save money, avoid plastic waste, and gain delicious, fresh flavor. This versatile and efficient salad spinner works with all types of lettuce, herbs, spinach, and other greens.

An advanced spinning gear makes the Spinner extremely easy to use. It requires very little force to start rotating the knob; you can even do it with just two fingers! When the handle turns once, the gear makes the colander turn four times, rapidly achieving high rotation speed while remaining stable thanks to the anti-skid ring at the bottom.

The number, shape, and size (maximum ³/₁₆ inch/5.5mm) of indents in the colander are specifically designed for optimal draining of the salad while minimizing the number of leaves that can escape.

As you spin, the bowl collects the drained water, and additional space beneath colander minimizes friction and contact between greens and excess water. A pouring spout is located on the cover, allowing excess water to be efficiently poured out without removing the cover.

Paired with a handy leak proof and airtight lid for preparing ahead or transporting, the Spinner also doubles as a stylish salad bowl –simply remove the colander and place the contents directly into the base.

The colander can also be used on its own to drain warm or cold foods. It has a footed base to stand for hands-free use.

The Spinner is simple to clean by hand or in the dishwasher. It conveniently occupies minimal space when not in use, making it a practical addition to any kitchen.

• Easy spinning mechanism: Advanced, highly engineered gear system dries salad greens and herbs using minimal effort.
• No need to open for draining: Built-in notch lets water out while keeping greens in for a final spin.
• Smart design colander holes: Amount, shape and size of indents optimize draining and minimize escape of leaves.
• Anti-skid ring: for optimal stability during spinning
• Airtight and leak proof lid: keeps salad fresh, crispy, and easy to transport with confidence
• Versatile: Translucent base can be used as an elegant serving or storage bowl. Footed colander can stand alone for draining pasta and other foods directly into the sink.

We recommend using the Salad Spinner only with leafy greens and herbs. Heavier ingredients like vegetables or fruits might unbalance the basket and damage the product. 

Washing & drying your salad greens:

1. Remove colander from bowl and place in sink.
2. Fill the bowl with cold water and place the salad leaves in the water to wash them.
3. Transfer the salad leaves to the colander to drain them. Do not overfill the colander. Overfilling could prevent the salad leaves from being thoroughly dried. Rinse under clear, running water if desired.
4. Empty the bowl, and place the colander into it. Colander self centers in the bowl.
5. Place cover on top of bowl and gently rotate the knob for 10 to 20 seconds.
6. Remove excess water by pouring out water through spout in cover.
7. Spin again for 5 to 10 seconds to dry the salad completely.

You can use the seal to preserve the salad leaves in the fridge or to instantly coat your salad leaves with dressing. (See Tips section.)

Cleaning and storage

• The anti-skid ring is only suitable for the dishwasher when placed on the base. Putting the anti-skid ring in the dishwasher by itself could alter its shape and prevent it from fitting on the base after dishwashing.
• The Salad Spinner is dishwasher safe, but make sure the base is not compressed in the dishwasher. Compressing it could deform the product.
• The spinner disc can be disassembled from the bottom of the cover for thorough cleaning. Simply hold the cover with one hand and place your fingers in the openings of the spinner disc while placing your thumb in the pouring spout to disassemble both parts.
• Do not try to remove the top disc from the cover, the upper part of the handle from the lower part of the handle, or the handle from the top disc. Those parts are not meant to be disassembled. Breakage of the drive disc due to disassembling from the cover is not covered by the warranty. The same goes for disassembling the upper part of the handle from the lower part of the handle and disassembling the handle from the drive disc.

• The less water you have on your salad leaves, the better the dressing will stick.
• For easy coating of the salad with the dressing: After spinning, remove both the cover and colander, dry the bowl, return salad greens and 3-4 tablespoons/50 mL dressing to the bowl, then seal and shake. Ready to serve!
• For easy and compact storage, simply leave the colander in the bowl, turn the handle towards the center of the cover, and place the cover upside down on the bowl to create a flat surface. Place lid on top.
