You open the cupboard to prepare dinner, and the lid from the pan you need is missing again. You go through all the dishes, look under the table, in the oven, even in the sink, but there’s nothing there. And then find her on the balcony or under the sofa. This is familiar to almost everyone.
The good news is that you can forget about it forever. And for this you don’t need to buy special organizers or remodel the kitchen.
You will need a regular hair tie or a thin silicone band. Place it on the lid handle. When you remove the lid from the pan, simply hang it on the handle of the pan itself. The rubber band will keep it in place so it won't fall, roll off, or get lost.
If you cook on the stove, hang the lid on the handle of a nearby pan or on the edge of a cabinet. The main thing is not to place it separately on the table or stove.
Thanks to this life hack, you will stop wasting time searching, your kitchen will become more convenient, and cooking will be calmer.
Question and answer:
How to store lids if pots are in the oven or on the stove?
Hang the lid on the handle of a nearby pot, cabinet, or even the edge of the countertop.
Why do caps keep getting lost?
Because they are placed separately on a table, stove or in a cabinet without fixation. Without being tied to the pan, they easily roll off or get tangled.
What can replace a hair tie?
A silicone band, a thin elastic band from a bag, or even a piece of soft fabric tied in a knot will do.
