Drop Lid

Complete your Yukihira Saucepan and extend its versatility with the enameled cast iron Drop Lid. Traditionally crafted from wood, the drop lid is used during simmering to prevent ingredients from breaking apart and to help flavors absorb more quickly. Reinterpreted by Vermicular in enameled cast iron, it’s non-absorptive surface draws flavor deep into the ingredients with very little broth, steam-roasting them in their own moisture and creating a self‑basting environment that heightens aroma and concentrates flavor. *Sold separately.
