ABSTRACT:
This invention provides a lid for a cooking pan having a central knob and two lid portions. The lid portions can be adjusted between a spaced-apart condition and a juxtaposed or surface-contact position. Each lid portion has apertures therethrough, but the apertures are not in alignment as viewed vertically. Thus, when the lid members are separated there are provided vent passages for cooking fumes, etc. to escape from a pan or pot being covered by the lid. Conversely, when the lid members are juxtaposed in surface-contact, the vent passages are closed, and escape of cooking fumes is restrained.
