Any source for glass lids?
I dug out an old Kenwood slow cooker, but the lid has disappeared over
the years. The sc hasn't been used much so I'd like to get it back into service, but need to find a lid for it. Iirc it came with a crockery lid, but a glass one will do. All I need is a nine-inch dia lid, with handle or knob. Anyone know a UK stockist of Pyrex or similar suppliers, along the lines of this US stockist?... http://www.classickitchensandmore.co...-lids-c-9.html |

They might still have one in the shops I suppose. dedics |

We were somewhere around Barstow, on the edge of the desert, when the
drugs began to take hold. I remember "Robin" saying something like: Any reason[1] why you can't just put a plate on top of it - with a bit of kitchen foil underneath if you want a better seal? It would work well enough, but if a lid can be got cheaply, I'd prefer that. Istr the last time it was used the top was actually a plate, so the original lid must've been lost or broken before that (some eighteen years ago).

Because plates tend not to have knobs on . I suppose a plate could be drilled and a knob affixed with a bolt. Owain The advantage of the plate method is that you also end up with a warm plate or two to serve the contents of the slow cooker on. |
