What does PANFUL mean in Scrabble?
noun
The amount that a single pan will hold when filled.
Cooks measure by the panful when they have no scale to hand, and the word also covers the cooked contents once they are in the pan. It follows the pattern of cupful and handful, where the container name plus -ful turns a vessel into a loose unit of quantity. The amount is deliberately vague, since pans differ in size.
