    To clarify, because I see confusion: pot vs pan

    A pot has pot handles, usually small loops on either side.

    A pan has one long handle like you see in the photo.

    So, this is not a small pot, this is a tall pan.

    Specifically, this is usually called a sauce pan.

        I agree with your classification but reading nearly any recipe will contradict us

        But a tomato isn’t even an actual fruit…

        “Actual” refers to the ordinary “plain English” meaning. Under the “plain English” definition, i.e. non-technical, non-domain-specific, a tomato is a vegetable.

        It’s a botanical fruit, but an actual vegetable.
