A container for containing generally flowable solid or liquid materials and capable of being hung in an inverted position is provided. The container includes a container body and a protruding hook-shaped handle, wherein the hook-shaped handle is arranged in L-shaped or inverted-hook configuration according to which a hooking space is formed oriented towards a top rim of the container. By hanging the container in an inverted position, the container is able to rapidly rinse and dry out after washing, while keeping the container top rim in the air and avoiding contamination of the container. The hook-shaped handle further allows the container to be conveniently and temporarily hung from a bowl sidewall, taking up no countertop or table space. The hook-shaped handle preferably protrudes from the base of the container to contribute to container stability when placed in an upright position.
