Here’s how to cover a pan without a lid.
Use any one of these alternatives when there’s no lid handy.
We’ve all been there.

Is there any piece of kitchen equipment as hard to find as the right pot lid?
Besides, some pans (like skillets) usually don’t come with their own lids.
A Baking Sheet
Got a sheet pan handy?
Made In
Just put it on top of the pot.
It’s a little bit bulkier than a regular pot lid, but it’ll do the trick.
Simple Tip!

Always use a potholderwhen lifting up baking sheets or pizza pans that you’re using as lids.
Another Lid
Is this too obvious?
Sometimes the lid of one pan can double as another.

It’s fine for your cookware to share lid custody.
If that’s troublesome, maybe it’s time to get a few new pieces.
