I have a variety of mixing bowls (both glass and SS), some have wide rims, others are thin, with a range in size from 4 or 5 inches to 12 inches (no two are the same size).
When I throw together batters, salsa, guac, tuna salad, etc., I'll cover them with plastic wrap and then refrigerate. This works great, not only to keep odors from permeating the fridge, but also to seal in flavor. However, I am less and less comfortable in using plastic wrap for this due to environmental concerns. I have seen some silicon covers that just lay flat on top of the bowl, as well as various sized ones that stretch over bowls. The problem with the latter is I would probably need a dozen or more of different sizes to replace the plastic wrap workflow (which I am not sure I am willing to invest in/and store).
So the big question for all of you is… have any of you found a solution for this? where a couple/three/even four reusable lids will be useable on such a wide variety of bowl sizes? and provide an effective seal?
