We just bought a nice Sabatier cookware set. The lids are glass with
a screwed on handle of resin with a stainless steel base. The problem
is when they are washed water gets between the glass lid and the
stainless steel base that the handle knob sits on.

I have been unscrewing the handles, but that is a pain....I don't want
to use a sealer since it may vaporize into our food.

It's the Sabatier Precision 10 piece Stainless Steel cookware set.

Any suggestions?

Other than buying all stainless steel replacement lids you're outta luck...
whatever impels people to buy pots with glass lids anyway... why are they even
made.

Use RTV silicone rubber; it won't vaporize, and is non-toxic in any
case. Buy "aquarium sealer" at the pet shop. If it won't kill tropical
fish, there's nothing to worry about.

Thanks, that sounds like a plan.

I didn't know silicone was listed as non-toxic....I will try
it....regardless the lids will hardly get *that* hot and even if to
the point of vaporization the silicon will out gas up and outside the
lid.

Thanks again
