What should be done with the lid after using the flour pan?

Shutting the lid after using the flour pan helps contain the flour and maintain a clean workspace. Keeping the lid closed prevents contaminants from entering the pan, protects the flour from moisture or pests, and minimizes the risk of spills or accidents. This practice also keeps the flour fresh for future use by reducing exposure to air, which can cause clumping or spoilage over time. Proper storage by shutting the lid ensures a safe and efficient kitchen environment.
