Usage examples of "china cap".

You can separate the chicken and the broth by using long kitchen tongs and fishing it all out piece by piece, or by putting a colander or china cap (a cone-shaped strainer) over pot number two as you pour the contents of pot number one into pot number two, thus saving the chicken parts and the aromatics in the colander.
