saucepan

n.
A deep cooking pan with a handle.

A round cooking utensil with a relatively long handle and (usually) a tight-fitting cover. The sides can be straight or flared and deep (the standard shape) or as shallow as 3 inches. Depending on the style, the versatile saucepan has a multitude of uses including making soups and sauces, boiling vegetables and other foods, braising and even sautéing (in the low-sided models). Saucepans come in sizes ranging from 1 pint to 4 quarts. They are made from various materials including aluminum, anodized aluminum, ceramic, copper, enameled (cast iron or steel), glass and stainless steel. Choose saucepans that are well balanced, with handles that allow the pan to be easily lifted.

IN BRIEF: A pot that holds a liquid or creamy mixture.

The saucepan shadows on the wall are black and round and plain to see. — Katherine Mansfield, (1888-1923), New Zealander writer, from Camomile Tea.
