Cookware lid and handle assemblies include a lid which may include a whistle knob assembly which provides an audible indication upon reaching cooking temperature. The whistle knob assembly includes a steam deflector portion to reduce burn danger to the user, and has a simplified structure and assembly method. The vessel includes a pair of side handles, and the lid includes a pair of finger protectors which may overlie the side handles. Each set of side handle and finger protector have a unique mating relationship. As such, in the mated position a lid rim rest upon a vessel rim. The lid may be rotated 180 degrees to rest non-mating finger protector and side handles. This lack of mating relationship causes the lid to be spaced upward, permitting venting or draining of the interior. The finger protectors may also fit within a handle aperture in the side handle. The user may tilt the lid to insert the finger protector into the handle aperture, abutting the finger protector within the handle aperture, and permitting the lid to rest in an access position.
