Cooking article (1) consists of a vessel (3) with a bottom surface (4) and a lateral surface (5), and at least one handle (10) and 11) attached to lateral surface (5) formed by assembly one (20) and assembly two (40), with each assembly (20 and 40) connected to vessel (3) to pivot between a storage position and a working position in which the two assemblies (20 and 40) form a single unit extending radially to lateral surface (5). Each assembly (20 and 40) is essentially aligned with the lateral surface (5) and assembly two (40) contains a gripping section (47) which extends above vessel (3) to allow a user to hold the cooking article (1) when inserting it into or removing it from a similar, slightly larger cooking article (2).
