ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to a magnetic cooking utensil holder which allows a user to temporarily secure hot pan lids while cooking eliminating the undesirable practice of placing the hot and sometimes soiled lids on a counter top. The device includes a horizontal tubular magnet having a plurality of support legs pivotally attached thereto which expand to form a tripod type support structure. A drip tray for collecting condensate or food residue adhering to the lid is removably attached to a pair of opposing support legs. A pair of opposing side arms each extending from an end of the magnet have a plurality of vertically aligned magnetic strips thereon for receiving additional cooking utensils such as knives, forks and spoons. Accordingly, whenever a user removes a lid to add ingredients or to stir the food within a pot or pan, the edge of the pan is placed within a drip tray with an opposing portion magnetically secured to the magnetic bar. The tripod type support structure allows the lid to be obliquely suspended with respect to the counter top so that any condensation or food residue adhering to the lid will easily drain into the drip tray.
