I was surprised at the ability to remove more than I imagined. Introducing the "Silicone open removal lid" found at the 100-yen shop Daiso.
Daiso open lid
Approximately 15.5 cm in diameter, silicon drop lid. The size is just right for a medium-sized pot, and a large pot may be a little unreliable as a otoshi buta.
You can remove the lye just by putting it on the ingredients being cooked in a pot and boiling it. I was skeptical, but it was a sneak peek.

Once I got it to a certain extent, I thought I should wash it off, but once I took it, I could take as much as I wanted without returning to the broth. How does it work?

Of course, you can use it only for cooking dishes that do not require a otoshi buta. It's much easier than using a bowl with a ladle and water, and less washing is required.
What I was interested in was that the ingredients were easily colored because they were made of silicon. When I used it for boiling tomatoes, it was colored in one shot ... Those who are interested need maintenance such as bleaching.
Can also be used for microwave oven steaming
Also useful for steamed dishes in the microwave. Put the ingredients on the bakeware after putting the lid on it. Pour a small amount of water, wrap and heat (heating time is adjusted according to the amount).When used when steaming vegetables, the finish is moist and fresher than when heated as it is. Unlike when water is poured directly onto a plate and heated, only the bottom does not become fluffy. It doesn't matter if you don't have it, but if you do, the taste of steamed microwave oven will go up a notch.
A convenient item for three birds (drop lid, shaving, microwave oven steaming) that are not two birds with one stone. Personally, I think I should buy just because of the excellent ability to remove. If you have any features that interest you, please give it a try!
