RSVP Universal Pot / Pan Lid
November 12, 2007
I’m sorta in the market for a Universal Lid that will fit on top of any size pot or pan. It’s been quite inconvenient to try and cook something that requires a 12 inch skillet or pan and needs to be simmered. What I’ve been doing is taking another 12 inch saucepan and inverting it as a “lid”. Rather precarious, since it rests exactly on the rim of the other - and it uses up my other 12 inch pan.
So I’ve been thinking of picking up a univeresal lid like this model by RSVP. Made of 18/10 stainless steel, it has the concentric ridges that allow you to cover any pot or pan from 7 to 12 inches. There’s also a steam vent on the top that’s adjustable. One thing about this lid is that I wish they made one BIGGER than 12 inches - I guess most people don’t have pans larger than 12 inches so there’s no reason for them to make the universal lid fit anything larger.
I’ll shop around first, but this one seemed pretty decent. There are a few other similarly priced brands (Miu, T-Fal) that I want to take a look at as well before buying.
