Pot covers can have many benefits while cooking. Covering a pot helps maintain an even temperature, which is important for cooking. Trapping heat and moisture in the pot can help food cook faster, which can also save energy. The heat generated is retained inside the cooking vessel, resulting in a shorter cooking time and thus lower energy use. Covering a pot can prevent liquid from evaporating, which can help retain consistency when cooking dishes like stews, casseroles, or soups. Covering a pot can provide moist heat, which is ideal for steaming vegetables, seafood, tamales and grains. When removing a pot lid, it's best to raise it from the back of the pot so that any condensed steam water drains into the pot instead of on the stove. The cover will keep the meat juicy and help cook it more evenly. The cover keeps the heat and the heated steam trapped within the pot, swirling around the part of the meat not under water and helping in the tenderizing process. When a lid is placed on a boiling pot, it acts as a barrier that traps the steam inside the pot. The trapped steam condenses back into water on the cooler surface of the lid and drops back into the pot. This process reduces the amount of heat loss from the boiling pot due to the escaping steam.
