Lee Valley Dripless Baster

Of the many basters we tested, this was our clear favorite. A snug-fitting valve in the tip and a gasket in the bulb ensure it won’t leak or drip, reducing mess and waste. Its curved shape makes it easier to reach into the bottom of a roasting pan, and the two feet near the tip and flat-bottomed bulb prevent it from rolling when set down on the counter.

The transparent tube has Imperial and metric graduations to 1 1/2 oz and 40ml. Two basting attachments (wide-tip and brush) and a cleaning brush are supplied. The bulb, tip valve, gasket and basting brush are made of durable food-grade silicone.

All components come apart for easy cleaning and are heat resistant, BPA-free and dishwasher safe.
