Yes.. "Chinois Strainer" I bought mine on-line as we have no Asian markets. What I usually do ,is remove the bulk products in a larger mesh strainer, then into the chinois to finish. Cheers
The mesh is very fine, in a tight cross hatch pattern, and flexible!! I use it a lot, and it is very sturdy, so you can push/extract what you would like through the sieve with a spoon , ladle or spatula. Keller uses this in his veal stock recipe
I use Matfer Products: http://www.matferbourgeatusa.com/products/index.php/matfer-kitchen-tools-and-matfer-utensils/strainers-and-portioners.html The exoglass and the universal screen bowl type

I made a batch of RG Yellow eye Beans.. I baked( covered ) them in just an aqueous solution with garlic cloves, bay, carrots, Lovage, parsley pepper corns and baked @ 260 for two hrs.. it looked good when I removed them but I allowed it to cool on the stove.. it appears that the liquor turn blackish.. and the green leaves looked the same!! would you dump the liquor and add a good ham stock or use it ( it smells good )? I'm making a variation of beans and Kale

I'm not sure of culinary type.. but the best hay/straw, comes from late harvest, as the earlier hay usually has weeds. So it could be variation you will see in the different cuts. I think the 3 or 4 cut will be the cleanest.. Consider straw? Difference.. http://www.ehow.com/facts_5595669_difference-between-hay-straw-bedding.html
