It holds the lids on end so they don't take up so much room in your cupboard.
Like this:
But mine dips in in the centers of the wires so that the handles (knob or loop) can hold on. I've also seen people put a towel bar on the wall and slide the lids between it and the wall with the handles holding onto the bar. |
I just pulled one of those contraptions out of my cupboard.
I hated the thing I have eight glass lids and one was so big it wouldn't fit, it is for the 22 quart kettle.
Bending down in the dark I could never tell what lid went to what.
Plus I was always fighting lids to keep them from rolling out.
Then what to do with the double boiler top and the three pasta strainer baskets steamers and so on.
Can you believe all of this started with a George Foreman grill?
I got it for Christmas from my brother and I needed it like a hole in my head.
I returned it and traded for a stainless multi clad bottomed kettle.
I liked it so much I started collecting the things.
The one not in the picture is a 12 quart with the cucumbers in it.
While pulling lids I found one to use as a weight that just barely fits inside the kettle.
I dont just collect these things I use them.
On a plus side the kettles hang and collect dust in them.
With the lid attached the dust cant get in.
