  • Vessel for cooking food with cooling lid
    Patent number: 4539899
    Abstract: A vessel according to the invention is intended for cooking food and comprises a body 1 and a lid 2 provided with a cavity 4 to receive water (A). The cavity is disposed in annular form around an elevated portion 5. The internal surface 6 of the lid 2 is substantially arch-shaped, which shape tends to engage the internal walls 7 of the body 1. Thus, the vapor condenses in the center and the droplets flow on the surface 6 so as to fall only on the periphery or flow along the walls 7 so that they do not fall directly on the food B.
