Skillets on the other hand, have semi-vertical sides that flare outwards from the base. This is unlike the frying pan because it does not have curved edges. Again, do not confuse skillets with saute pans as the skillet widen outwards while saute pan does not.

Ceramic frying pans are made from a non-toxic, non-reactive material that is known for its non-stick properties and fast heating capabilities. They are ideal for cooking delicate dishes and reducing the amount of oil needed for cooking. However, they are prone to scratching and may not be suitable for high-heat cooking.

Cast iron is another material to consider because it retains heat extremely well, although it's not the best heat conductor. That means, cast iron takes a while to heat up. Cast iron is best for searing, sauteing, and baking.

Frying pans have long handles and are often shallower. These pans aren’t designed for slow cooking or braising. Despite having flared sides, the pans are just slightly taller.
