This moderately sized, deep, round-sided skillet is like a flat-bottomed wok, perfect for stir-frying and designed to facilitate a chef’s C-shaped flipping motion. Because it exposes lots of surface compared to the diameter of its bottom (it’s 6 inches at the bottom, 9 inches across the top), the 2-quart skillet is also ideal for quickly reducing sauces.
