Pan
A pan is a kitchen
Short answer
A pan cooks. A pot cooks and boils. Fire is light, smoke, and a dinner bell.
Also: frying pan · skillet
How it works
Pans and pots are why a house becomes a kitchen. Burnt food is a waste. Raw meat is a toilet event.
What to do
Cook, eat, move. Don't live in the smoke.
Don't
Don't invent a minute timer. When it looks done, look at it.
