what is the difference between a stock pot and a casserole pot?
A pot that is about 3-4 times wider than it is tall is often called a rondeau/low casserole and is shaped a lot like a sauté pan. A pot that is about 1.5-3 times wider than it is tall is often called a low stockpot, casserole (from the French word for “case”), French oven, or Dutch oven.
