Where Do You Hide Your Lids?

Every cook will tell you, the trick is not where to store the pot, it is where to store the lid. Here’s an easy solution: the cheap and flimsy dish towel rack that your mother told you not to buy. I think I bought 4 of them for under $20.
There is a little bit of skill to this — you need to measure your cupboard door and buy a towel rack that fits your space. You need to place your pot lid so that it can be stored and removed easily, and not interfere with your shelf location. Be aware that raised panels make things a bit tricky, but still do-able. Work it out on paper before you start drilling holes.
These towel racks are also good to use as kitchen tool racks — hang them near the stove with a few s-hooks and hang up your tools. As compared to the fancy European tool racks (at $40+) this is a real savings.
