Fry Pan
A fry pan is a round, shallow pan that may have straight sides with a slightly rounded base or a round base that slopes out and upward. The size and handle length can vary to match the cooking process. Heat is evenly distributed across the base, while the sloping sides make it easier to stir and turn the ingredients.

It typically has a flat bottom and straight or slightly sloping sides, and is made of materials that can withstand high heat, such as ceramic, glass, or cast iron. Some casserole cookware comes with a lid, which helps to trap moisture and heat, and allows the dish to cook evenly. Casserole cookware can come in a variety of shapes and sizes, from small individual serving dishes to large family-sized baking dishes. They are often designed to be both functional and aesthetically pleasing, with decorative patterns or colors that can add to the presentation of the finished dish.

Griddle Pan
A griddle pan is a type of cookware that is designed for cooking foods that require a flat surface, such as pancakes, eggs, or grilled sandwiches. Griddle pans typically have a large, flat cooking surface with no raised edges or rims, which allows food to be cooked evenly. They can be made of a variety of materials, including cast iron, aluminum, and non-stick coated surfaces. Griddle pans may have a smooth surface or be covered in ridges or grooves that create grill marks on food. Some griddle pans have a handle on one side for easy lifting and maneuvering, while others have two handles on either side for added stability. Griddle pans can be used on a stove top or over a grill, and are often used for cooking large batches of food quickly and efficiently. They are a popular choice for breakfast foods, but can also be used for cooking meats, vegetables, and other foods that benefit from a flat cooking surface.

Sauce Pan
A saucepan is a type of kitchen pot that is commonly used for cooking sauces, soups, stews, and other liquid-based dishes. It has a round shape with high straight sides and a flat bottom, and typically comes with a lid. The sides of a saucepan can be straight or flared, depending on the specific design. Sauce pans are usually made of materials that are good conductors of heat, such as stainless steel, copper, or aluminum. They can also have non-stick coatings to prevent food from sticking to the bottom of the pan. Some saucepans come with spouts or pouring lips that allow for easy transfer of liquids, while others have handles on both sides for easy lifting and pouring. The size of a saucepan can vary, with smaller sizes being suitable for heating up a small amount of sauce, while larger sizes can be used for cooking soups or stews for several people. Sauce pans are a staple in most kitchens, as they are versatile and can be used for a wide range of cooking tasks.
