Abstract
Cooking assemblies, cooking containers, lids, racks, and utensils are provided. In one embodiment, a handle is provided for use on a cooking assembly and is configured to interact with a utensil for supporting the utensil on the lid. In certain embodiments, the handle can have an aperture that is sized to receive a complementary support on a cooking utensil. Through this aperture and support, the utensil can be retained on the lid when not in use, and the support can further act as a support to elevate a utensil head and prevent excess mess.
