The invention provides a cooking utensil which comprises a touch switch, a driving part and a controller. The touch switch is arranged on the body or a cover body of the cooking utensil and used for sending an uncovering signal. The driving part is used for driving the cover body to open. The controller is electrically connected with the touch switch and the driving part and used for receiving theuncovering signal and controlling the driving part to move so as to open the cover body. When a user touches the touch switch, the driving part is driven through the controller for uncovering, a locking structure is loosened and breaks away from a fastened position, accordingly automatic uncovering is achieved, and an uncovering button structure conventionally exposed on the appearance face of the product is omitted in the uncovering way, so that a whole interface of the product is simpler. In addition, in this uncovering way, an uncovering operation can be selected or not according to the working environments in the cooking utensil, for example, pressure intensity, the cooking utensil has higher safety, and especially the risk is prevented that the cooking utensil is forcedly uncovered due to misoperation of a user during under-pressure work and accordingly explodes and scalds a user.
