Abstract
A food press is provided having a presser arm and a presser plate which is received by a basket formed in a handle, and a pivotally attached perforated strainer plate is locatable within the basket. The strainer plate is pivotally attached to the handle at a point which is at a side of the basket opposite a hinge which pivotally attaches the handle to the presser arm. The food press provides for the pivoting of the strainer plate from a first position in the basket, where the food article may be pressed against the strainer plate, and a second position exposing the upper surface and lower surface of the strainer plate for easy access and cleaning of the perforated strainer plate.
