Abstract

A cooking vessel includes a vessel body having a spill rim extending outwardly and bent around the vessel body. A vessel handle is attached to a wall of the vessel body. A cover than can be set closingly on the spill rim has at least one cover handle. The vessel body and the cover form a spill and ventilation appliance. To guarantee a defined venting and a simple, more reliable, and also defined pouring with more reliable handling, the wall of the vessel body in at least one peripheral region of its upper rim has a larger slope than in remaining peripheral region of the rim due to shortening the spill rim. A rim of the cover in at least one peripheral segment has at least one arch projecting in a radial direction slope when correspondingly positioning the cover through rotation. The remaining peripheral region of the vessel wall without the larger slope has a circumferential length that is at least as large as the peripheral segment of the cover having the at least one arch.
