Know before you buy
This lid is designed to fit pots with a diameter of up to 10.5 inches. It rests securely on the rim, allowing you to press the dough directly into the boiling water.
Yes, the pierced surface is also excellent for making small, consistent gnocchi. The uniform holes ensure that whatever dough you use cooks evenly.
The set includes a durable polypropylene scraper specifically designed to fit the surface of the lid. You have everything you need to start making dumplings right out of the box.
Not at all. Because the lid is constructed from stainless steel and the scraper is plastic, both pieces are dishwasher safe. For best results, we recommend rinsing the lid under warm water immediately after use to prevent dough from drying in the holes.
The lid is designed to sit firmly on the pot rim. However, because it is a universal-style fit, we recommend holding the handle or the edge of the lid with one hand while using the scraper with the other to ensure maximum stability.
