The two raised tabs on top give your fingers something to push against, which helps when your hands are wet from washing coriander or soaking dal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlways lock the lid fully before you switch on. A half-turned lid can lift under pressure when you're grinding a wet paste.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy does my chutney jar leak from the top?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMost top leaks come from the gasket — a rubber ring that has stretched, hardened, cracked, or slipped out of its seat.\u003c\/strong\u003e Rubber ages with heat, turmeric, oil and daily washing, so after a few years it stops pressing firmly against the jar mouth. This lid comes with a gasket already seated, so both the dome and the seal are new.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTwo honest caveats: a new lid will not cure a leak from the \u003cem\u003ebottom\u003c\/em\u003e of the jar (that's the blade assembly or coupler seal), and it can't make up for an overfilled jar. For wet grinding — coconut chutney, green chutney, ginger-garlic paste — keep the jar no more than about half full and add water a little at a time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy a clear dome lid helps\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eYou can watch the texture change without stopping the mixer and opening the lid.\u003c\/strong\u003e Coarse for peanut chutney, smooth for mint-coriander, a quick pulse for podi or a small batch of ginger-garlic paste — a clear dome lets you stop at the right moment instead of guessing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFitting and care\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCheck the gasket sits evenly in its groove all the way round before first use.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWash by hand with warm, soapy water and a soft sponge.
