"spider pan" کی تعریف اور معنی

What is a "spider pan"?

A spider pan, also known as a three-legged skillet, is a type of cast-iron cooking vessel characterized by its three short legs and long handle. The legs allow the pan to stand over an open fire or hot coals, making it ideal for outdoor cooking or traditional hearth cooking. Spider pans were commonly used in the 18th and 19th centuries before modern stovetops became widespread. The heavy cast iron construction provides excellent heat retention and even cooking, making it suitable for frying, sautéing, and baking.
