What is a "skillet"?
A skillet, also known as a frying pan or frypan, is a versatile kitchen utensil used for frying, sautéing, searing, and even baking. It typically features a flat bottom and low, slightly sloped sides, along with a long handle for easy maneuvering. Skillets come in various sizes and materials, including stainless steel, cast iron, aluminum, and non-stick coatings, each offering different advantages for cooking. They are used for preparing a wide range of dishes, from breakfast foods like eggs and pancakes to main courses like stir-fries, pastas, and sauces.
