What is a sauté pan?
A sauté pan is a versatile cooking pan with straight sides and a wide, flat bottom. As the name suggests, it is primarily used for sautéing, which involves cooking food quickly over high heat while constantly stirring or flipping. The straight sides of a sauté pan help to contain ingredients and prevent splattering. Sauté pans also come with a long handle and sometimes a helper handle for easy manoeuvring. They are suitable for a variety of cooking techniques, including browning meat, stir-frying vegetables, and making sauces.
What is a chefs pan?
A chef's pan, also known as a saucier pan, is a versatile and essential piece of cookware commonly used in both professional and home kitchens. It is a hybrid between a frying pan and a saucepan, designed with high, flared sides and a wide base. The chef's pan is ideal for a variety of cooking techniques, including frying, simmering, and making sauces. Its high sides make it easy to toss and stir ingredients without the risk of spillage. The wide base ensures even heat distribution, promoting uniform cooking and preventing hot spots.
