   When light-wing’d toys
   Of feather’d Cupid foil with wanton dullness

   Let house-wives make a skillet of my helm,
   And all indign and base adversities
   Make head against my estimation. William Shakespeare, Othello.

1. Skillet

   A frying pan, frypan, or skillet is a flat-bottomed pan used for frying, searing, and browning foods. It is typically 20 to 30 cm (8 to 12 in) in diameter with relatively low sides that flare outwards, a long handle, and no lid. Larger pans may have a small grab handle opposite the main handle. A pan of similar dimensions, but with less flared, more vertical sides and often with a lid, is called a sauté pan. While a sauté pan can be used as a frying pan, it is designed for lower heat cooking.
