This is a “Drop lid with hole” made by Kiso Sawara, which is useful for making simmered dishes.
The standing tree looks similar to Hinoki(Japanese Cypress), but as a wood it is softer, easier to handle, lighter, and more water-resistant than Hinoki.
Sawara absorbs moisture moderately and has a weaker aroma than Hinoki. It is also well matched with food, and is familiar as a material for “Ohitsu(cooked rice container)” and “Sushi tub”.
The Drop lid made of that Sawara is excellent for retaining the heat of the cooking food and heating it evenly with its weight.
There are 6 sizes available, from a minimum diameter of 14cm (5.51″) to a maximum of 24cm (9.45″). Please check the size of your pots and choose the size that is just right for you.
It is a circular plate with a handle.The handles are inserted into the plate.Wooden Sawara do not conduct heat well, so you can touch the handles with bare hands while cooking.About 10 small holes in one plate. Boiling water circulates through these holes to prevent spills.The lid is about 1cm (0.39″) thick. The lid has a good weight without crushing the food.There is a 0.2cm (0.79″) difference in diameter between the top and bottom of the lid, and the sides are slightly tapered.Small scratches and chips as pictured,dents and splinters may be found, but neither is defective. Please understand this beforehand.The cooking liquid hits the lid and is distributed throughout, allowing the food to be cooked in less liquid.
See how it is cooked with a Drop lid with a hole in it.
Soak Koya-Tofu(freeze-dried Tofu) in hot water and cut into bite-size pieces after pressing and washing, and add to boiling broth, soy sauce, mirin(sweet sake), and sake.
Drop lid and cook over low-medium heat for about 7 minutes. It is finished when the green beans are added at the end and cooked through.
It also prevents the cooking liquid from evaporating all at once and avoiding the food from cooking crumbles in the pot.
Please purchase a Drop lid that is one size smaller than the diameter of the pot you wish to use it with. This example shows a 21cm (8.27″) pot with a Drop lid 18cm (7.09″).
*A Drop lid of 20cm (7.87″) can just barely be inserted, but the wood may expand and become stuck, so a slightly smaller size is used.
On a separate page, we also offer a “Drop lid without holes”. Click here to see the other page.
To avoid absorbing the smell of fish or other foodstuffs, moisten the entire lid with water before use.
Please select the size you prefer.
