A lid structure, which is used for covering an opening of a container, includes a mainbody, an elastic annular element, and a covering assembly. The mainbody includes a through hole. The elastic annular element is integrally disposed on a peripheral region of the mainbody, wherein the elastic annular element is used for positioning the lid structure on the opening. The covering assembly is disposed on the mainbody and includes a spacer element and a covering element. The spacer element is disposed on and covers the through hole. The spacer element includes a plurality of drain holes and a central connecting portion. The covering element is deformably disposed on the central connecting portion.

A cooking pot, including a cylindrical surface disposed around a base to store at least one of a liquid and a type of food, a strainer disposed within a lower portion of the cylindrical surface to empty the at least one of the liquid and the type of food, and a slidable lid disposed within a lower portion of the cylindrical surface to cover the strainer when the slidable lid is in a first position and to uncover the strainer when the slidable lid is in a second position.

An axially collapsible cooking vessel comprises a flexible body having plural circumferentially extending reduced thickness areas spacedly arrayed between an upper peripheral edge and a bottom edge that provide for nested folding of the flexible body axially inwardly and downwardly upon itself; a heat conductive base that is interconnected with a bottom peripheral edge of the flexible body in a fluid tight engagement therewith; a heatsink structurally interconnected to a bottom surface of the heat conductive base, the heatsink having an annular shaped radiator and a circumferentially extending shield extending about the annular shaped radiator; and a removable lid releasable engageable with a top opening defined by the flexible body.

A popcorn pot having a curvilinear body providing a paraboloid-shaped cavity for gravitationally concentrating a quantity of un-popped kernels and a depth of oil over a bottom center of the popcorn pot. The curvilinear body provides volumetric containment inside the paraboloid cavity. Integral footing along a lower portion of the popcorn pot stabilizes the curvilinear body over a flat-top heat source so that the bottom center is disposed centrally thereover. The popcorn pot may include a domed lid for covering the opening communicating to the paraboloid-shaped cavity, wherein the lid is adapted to effectuate convection heating within the cavity, thereby providing natural efficiency and universal accessibility with more predictable results than a flat-bottomed pot, while using less oil for healthier results.

A kitchen utensil or device, specifically a strainer, is constructed and adapted to attach removably to the side of a pan, pot, or bowl, to provide a convenient means to allow for the separation of solid food product from liquid. The strainer includes a generally planar top surface, having a plurality of small gauge holes, slits, or openings in its surface. The holes are effective to allow a liquid to pass through the surface of the utensil while retaining the solid food product. The device is attachable by a clip to the rim of an existing pan, pot, or bowl.
