Call and ask Dale to describe the over the sink colander, and ask if he has
the locking lid pot as well. He has had a set of two in the past so probably
still does.

Subject: [CnD] Lock-lid saucepan

When I was a teen, forty years ago, the AFB aids and appliances catalog sold
a lock-lid saucepan.

It was about six quarts and had a handle. What made it unique was the tiny
holes along the top rim on the opposite side of the handle, around 5 of
them.

The lid locked in to place when you pressed down.

Steam escaped out of those tiny holes.

But the best part was when you cooked pasta, you could simply lock on that
lid, take it to the sink and pour. No strainer was necessary.

I'm really wanting one of these again.

When I moved out and went to college, I let my dad keep mine because he used
it every night. When my dad passed away, my mom who doesn't cook gave it to
a thrift store.

Anyone know where I can find such a pot?
