Why do I need a suitable lid for pots and pans?
A lid does not necessarily have to be placed on the saucepan or pan for every preparation. However, for many dishes it is indispensable, to keep the aroma in and the meat, fish or vegetables at the right consistency.
Keep food from drying out
If there is a glass lid on the pan while frying, the water will condense on it and drip back onto the food. You protect it from drying out and it is more succulent.
Preserve aromas
When you are cooking or roasting something gently, the aroma escapes from the food very quickly. With a lid these aromas are broadly preserved and not lost.
Save energy
A suitable pan lid helps you to save energy. It is important that it fits snugly and that no heat or steam escapes from the side. So that steam can still escape and no pressure builds up, many pot lids have a small hole or a valve or other steam outlet opening.
Which is the right pan or pot cover for me - purchasing advice
Our range of pot and pan covers is very broad and suitable for cookware such as casseroles, frying pans and woks. You can simply set the filters so that you only see a suitable selection. Still no clear idea of which pot or pan lid is right for you? Then you’ll find a couple of tips and helpful information below.
1. Sizes of cookware lids
The most important feature of a pot lid is that it fits the pot or pan. A 28 cm pan lid fits a pan of the same size. You can reduce the wide range a little by only displaying the lids that fit your saucepan.
2. Pan lid materials
Glass or stainless steel saucepan lid? That is the crucial question in choosing. The big advantage of a glass lid is that you can see the pan contents without having to lift the lid. Which prevents heat and aromas escaping. Glass lids are heat-resistant and can usually be cleaned in the dishwasher. Stainless steel lids often look nicer with the pot and do not break if accidentally dropped.
3. Handle types
From us you can buy classic cookware lids with an ergonomic knob or semi-circular handle. Our pot lids with foldable handles are a specialty. With these you can easily lift the lid and replace it and fold it back down in a single movement after use. The pot and pan lids are therefore very space-saving in the dishwasher or cupboard.
