Does this basket come smaller or maybe a different make? I would like one so I can lower eggs in a pot of boiling water at one time.
Thankyou

We do have a smaller basket that was designed for taco shells but may work for your eggs - item 104431. Thank you.

QUESTION
I need a strainer to steam 2 crabs at a time in at home. Is this one also suitable for 2-4 corn on the cobs? Crabs are roughly 2 pounds each.
Thank you,
Gail
ANSWER
Hi. This fry basket is 8.5" in diameter, so it would depend on how large your crabs are. For example, blue crabs range from 4 to 7 inches. It's possible that it would work with this basket. Thanks!
