Table pot for liquid seasoning

Abstract

A table pot for a liquid seasoning, including a container body having an opening at an upper end thereof, for storing the liquid seasoning therein, and a lid which is attached to the container body so as to close the opening. The lid has a fluid passage and an air inlet formed in an outer peripheral portion thereof such that the fluid passage and the air inlet are located diametrically opposite to each other. An extended air passage having a larger cross sectional area than the air inlet is connected to an inner open end of the air inlet. The air passage extends toward the fluid passage while being inclined downwardly of the lid. The table pot further includes a shielding member located below an opening of the extended air passage remote from the air inlet, so as to interfere with flow of bubbles of air from the opening of the extended air passage into the liquid seasoning.
