An apparatus for holding and lifting items of food for use in connection with cooking includes a network comprised of interconnected flexible heat resistant plastic members and handles formed on two opposite sides of the network, with each of the handles being comprised of a plurality of flexible heat resistant plastic members connected to the network. A portion of the handle members may be removed to adjust the length of the handle. In a presently preferred embodiment, the network is comprised of a plurality of concentric circles interconnected by radial members. The handles are preferably formed by extensions of the radial members with a plurality of looping members connected between them. The handles may preferably be adjusted by cutting the radial extension members to remove a preselected number of looping members to adjust the length of the handles.

1. An apparatus for holding and lifting items of food for use in connection with cooking, comprising: a network comprised of interconnected flexible heat resistant plastic members, said heat resistant plastic being adapted to withstand cooking temperatures without melting; handles formed on two opposite sides of said network extending beyond the periphery of said network, each of said handles comprising a plurality of looping flexible members comprised of flexible heat resistant plastic adapted to withstand cooking temperatures without melting integrally formed with said network but extending beyond the periphery of said network, each looping flexible member forming a gripping portion and being designed to be selectively cut off to shorten the handle, wherein at least one of said looping flexible members may be removed to adjust the length of the handle.
