Commercial Saute Pans FAQ

What is a sauté pan used for?

Sauté pans can be used for sautéing, shallow frying, searing, and more. The straight sides of a professional sauté pan keep the ingredients inside the pan while sautéing. 

What kind of pan is best for sautéing?

Sautéing properly requires a pan that has a broad, flat bottom. Straight short sides keep the ingredients inside the pan while sautéing.

Is a sauté pan the same as a frying pan?

A sauté pan has a large, flat bottom and short straight sides, while a frying pan also has a large, flat bottom, but the short sides are sloped or gently curved.

What is the difference between a skillet and a sauté pan?

A skillet is the same as a frying pan. Skillets and sauté pans both have large, flat bottoms; it is just the sides that differ. Sauté pans and skillets have short sides - sauté pans' sides are straight, and skillet sides are curved or sloped.
