Amazing that you posted this just when I took my sifter out of the dishwasher.
Unfortunately, they're not stainless steel; they're just cheap metal that RUSTS! I took it out of the dishwasher after the dry cycle had finished, but it was still wet. I took a paper towel and dried it, and what did I get off it? You guessed it -- RUST!
I notice on all the cooking shows on TV that no one uses a sifter; they use a strainer instead. Now I think I understand why. I don't know about your strainer, but mine's rust-proof!
I'd toss that sifter of yours and, if you don't already have a strainer, get yourself one -- a GOOD one; it's worth the investment.
