According to one example, a cookware vessel includes a bracket attached to an exterior of a vessel, and a detachable handle. The bracket has upper and lower partial geometric surfaces. The handle includes a grip portion, a coupling, an actuator, and a spring. The coupling has a channel configured to surround at least a portion of the upper partial geometric surface. The actuator is rotatingly attached to the coupling, and has one or more hooks that are configured to engage the lower partial geometric surface when the actuator is rotated in a first direction and that are further configured to disengage from the lower partial geometric surface when the actuator is manually rotated in a second direction by the user. The spring is configured to apply a force to the actuator so as to rotate the actuator in the first direction, when the actuator is released by the user.

Cookware vessel lid and handle set

According to one example, a removable lid for a container of a vessel includes a valve configured to selectively allow air to vent out of a fluid retaining interior region of the container when the lid is positioned on the container. The valve includes an opening that extends entirely through a thickness of a portion of the lid, and a valve plug. The valve plug includes a valve top portion that extends vertically above a top surface of the portion of the lid, a valve bottom portion, and a valve central portion. The valve top portion is configured to be contracted, by a downward pressure, into a more vertically compact shape. The valve top portion is further configured to, absent the downward pressure, expand back upwards out of the more vertically compact shape.

Food storage and cooking vessel with a valve

According to one example, an article of cookware includes a substantially horizontal bottom having an interior surface and an opposing exterior surface, and a sidewall extending upward from the bottom to terminate at a rim. The bottom, the sidewall, and the rim define an interior volume for one or more food items. The sidewall has an inverted frustoconical shape with an upper portion, and a lower portion positioned below the upper portion. The upper portion has an outward tilt of less than about 10 degrees from a vertical line. The lower portion has an outward tilt that is at least about 15 degrees greater than the outward tilt of the upper portion.

Cookware for use in a microwave oven

According to one example, a cookware vessel includes a bracket coupled to an exterior of a vessel, and a detachable handle. The handle includes a grip portion, a coupling fixedly attached to the grip portion, an actuator rotatingly coupled to the handle, and a spring. The coupling has a channel that is configured to surround at least a portion of an upper horizontally extending rod of the bracket. The actuator has a top portion configured to engage and disengage an upper edge of the bracket when the actuator is rotated forward and backward. The actuator also has hooks configured to engage and disengage a lower horizontally extending rod of the bracket when the actuator is rotated forward and backward. The spring is configured to apply a force to the actuator so as to rotate the actuator forward, when the actuator is released by a user.

Cookware surfaces of metal, such as aluminum, may include a nonstick coating and embedded hard metal mesh. The mesh protects the nonstick coating between interior regions within the mesh from being cut or abraded by knives and other tools.

Valve handle for a container

Food stuffs are cooked at precise temperatures, which are optionally below 100&#xb0; C., in a vessel that is evacuated to exclude air, in which low pressure steam replaces the air. When a sufficient quantity of air is excluded and replaced with water vapor, the temperature of vapor is accurately measured inside the vessel below the lid to control the temperatures within about 1&#xb0; C. Air is preferably excluded via a controlled heated process for a relatively short period of time at high temperature to generate steam, the temperature is lowered to condense water vapor upon which the lid will sealingly engage the rim of the vessel, forming a partial vacuum in the cooking vessel.

Cookware vessel with a decorative interior bottom

Cookware has both as copper and a stainless steel mesh embedded in the exterior facing surface of the bottom of the base. The embedding process work hardens the bottom of an aluminum cooper vessel. A ferromagnetic stainless steel is embedded into the cooper mesh, forming portion of the exterior bottom surface of the cookware to render the cookware compatible with induction cooking heat sources.
