What is the hook between the strainer mesh and the handle used for?
Asked to confirm the purpose of the bent hook-shaped detail near the handle and the compatible pot sizes.
It is a latch that allows the strainer to rest stably on the rim of pots with a diameter of 14cm or more, helping you blanch ingredients separately.
A half strainer refers to a half-moon-shaped strainer designed to utilize half the space of a pot so you can blanch ingredients separately within a single pot.
Kajidonya's half strainer has a small hook between the strainer mesh and the handle. When you hang this hook on the rim of a pot with a diameter of 14cm or more, the strainer is stably held inside the pot without having to hold it with your hand continuously[1]. It is a structure that helps you conveniently use cooking space and your hands when boiling vegetables or noodles with different cooking times alternately in a single pot. After cooking, it can be conveniently washed in the dishwasher[2].
hmmm, this detail relieves the hassle in front of the heat with just a small bend that rests the tool on the rim of the pot.

The standard for the maximum pot rim thickness on which the hook can be stably hung has not yet been confirmed.
