kazan

See also: Kazan, kazán, Kazań, Kazán, and Kazaň

English
Shorpo being made in a kazan

Etymology

Borrowed from Russian каза́н (kazán), from a Turkic language, compare to Azerbaijani qazan, Kazakh қазан (qazan), Turkish kazan, Uzbek qozon.

Noun

kazan (plural kazans)

  1. a cauldron or cooking pot used in Central Asian cuisine
    • 1990, Anya Von Bremzen, ‎John Welchman, Please to the Table: The Russian Cookbook:
      A proper kazan also has to be well greased by constant use — it should never be washed with water, or, God forbid, actually scrubbed and scoured. The Uzbeks just wipe it carefully with an oiled cloth; and they will insist and I will second this — that the older the kazan, the better the pilaf.

Turkish

Etymology 1

From Vulgar Ottoman Turkish قزان‎ (qazan), from قزغان‎ (qazɣan), from Proto-Turkic *kaŕgan. Compare Karakhanid قَزْغانْ‎ (qazɣān, “excavated, dug out”), Chuvash хуран (huran, “boiler”), Hungarian harang, Kazakh қазан (qazan), Bashkir ҡаҙан (qaðan). Perhaps ultimately derived from Proto-Turkic *kaŕ- (“to dig, scrape, plane”), for which see kaz-.
