Sauté

JA: ソテー(ソテー)FR: Sauter

Cooking small or thin pieces of food quickly in a small amount of fat over relatively high heat.

What it means in a kitchen

Sauté literally means "jumped" in French — the food moves in the pan. The goal is fast browning with minimal moisture loss. Wide pan, hot pan, dry surfaces on the food, don't crowd. Crowded pans steam.
