Whether a saucepan can be used in an oven usually depends on the type of material from which the pan's handles are made. If the pan has a wooden or plastic handle, it should not be used in an oven. Most commercially manufactured saucepans have heat resistant handles, and may be used safely at baking temperatures up to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. If there is any doubt as to the material of the handles, do not use the pan with higher temperatures - broiling, for instance, might not be safe.

What are the main differences between a saucepan and a frying pan?

How did the saucepan get its name?
The term "saucepan" derives from the combination of "sauce" and "pan." The word "sauce" comes from the Latin "salsus," meaning salted, which refers to the liquid used in cooking. The "pan" part of the word simply refers to a shallow cooking vessel. Thus, a saucepan is specifically designed for making sauces or cooking liquids.
Why are the handles of saucepans usually made of plastic?
