A saucepan is one of the essential pieces of kitchen equipment. Unlike a shallow frying pan, a saucepan has a deeper bottom to accommodate more food for cooking. In addition, the higher sides prevent spills. The following post will highlight a few features of the saucepan and recommend the best options for you to consider. I will explain three categories of saucepans – small saucepan, medium saucepan and large saucepan.

What is Saucepan?

The term saucepan refers to a deep cooking vessel with raised sides. Also, saucepans typically have a deeper bottom than the overall width of the vessel. There are different sizes of measuring pans, ranging from small ones with a circumference of 15 cm and a height of 10 cm to larger ones with 30 cm and can hold up to 4 liters of liquid. One of the factors that make a saucepan unique is its height. Moreover, a saucepan might not look like a frying pan traditionally. Some can look like a stockpot and even have a thicker base. This is because as the pan size increases, the height also increases. Pans usually come with a lid, but lidless versions can also be found on the market. Saucepans do have handles, but they are generally not as long as those on frying pans.
