Sauté in french means "to jump" and can be a method of cooking or a way to describe a dish like sautéed chicken breasts. The reason the french called this technique "to jump" is because you are cooking at a very high heat and you don't want it sitting too long in the pan. Sauté and saucepans are a type of pans used to sauté meat or to prepare sauce! they are metal pans with long handles and often have lids. Sauté or saucepans usually have a dense, heavy bottom that spreads the heat evenly without any hot spots. They generally are big enough to cook your ingredients without crowding.The sides of a sauté pan are straight and also low when compared to a saucepan. The straight sides help when making a pan sauce by keeping the liquids from spilling over the sides. They also help keep the food in the pan when making it "jump". Well-made sauté pans are considered highly conductive when they can transfer heat evenly across the bottom and up the side so the food cooks the way it is supposed to. 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. Copper or anodized aluminum sauté or saucepans are hot favorites all over the world. Some saucepans have a thick sheet of thermally conductive aluminum laminated into their base for that purpose.
