Question

Okay, I really need help, it’s a cooking need of help so I was making pasta, and I used a smaller top on a big pot (I know, I know..) and now it won’t come off, I’ve tried banging it around the edges, I put cold water on it, and I used dish soap to pry it open, nothing. I am not putting it in the freezer for it to cool off. Please help me!

Answer 1

Try soaking it in hot water. The pot only if possible. The top is smaller and if the pan expands it should loosen up

Answer 2

Dry your hands from the soap and try twisting the lid of the pan. This will cause it to start to turn. If you put it in the freezer it will be harder to take it off. My guess is by twisting the lid, you would be able to cause enough friction to take the lid off.

Explanation:

If this doesn't work try tilting the lid and then lifting it
