#Pot covers should be kashered with hagalah and this opinion is primary.<ref>Shulchan Aruch O.C. 451:14</ref> Some poskim require libun for a pot cover where the pot is sometimes used to cook dry foods like rice.<ref>Chut Shani Pesach second edition p. 130</ref> Also, some allow kashering it with steam such as by simply placing it on top of a pot of boiling water.<ref>Hechsher Kelim p. 178 by Rav Avram Edrey cites Pri Chadash 121:15, Bet Lechem Yehuda 121, Levushei Mordechai OC 72 who allow using zeyia to kasher the pot covers. However, he also cites the Sdei Chemed Hey n. 24 and Shoel Umeishiv 3:3:125, 5:4 as arguing that zeyia doesn't work. He concludes that the main opinion is that one shouldn't use zeyia to kasher.</ref>
