Make your Japanese home cooking both charming and effortless with the Pig Drop Lid. Shaped like a sweet pig face, this playful kitchen tool lets steam puff right out of its tiny snout as your dish simmers. It sits directly on top of ingredients inside the pot, holding them down gently so heat and flavor circulate evenly.
Drop lids are a staple in traditional Japanese kitchens for stewed and simmered dishes. Made of flexible silicone rubber, this lid adapts smoothly to your cookware and ingredients. It also works well in the microwave as a reusable alternative to plastic wrap, cutting down on disposable kitchen supplies. When your cooking is done, simply hook a chopstick through the snout or pinch the ears to lift it out safely.
