salt pig
Open ceramic container
A salt pig is an open ceramic container for storing salt near the stove, shaped somewhat like a pig lying on its side with a wide mouth for easy pinching.
The design keeps salt accessible while protecting it from splashes and steam.
The name may come from an old word for earthenware pot rather than the animal: She keeps a salt pig by the cooktop.
