All-Clad D3 2-Quart Saucier

Product description

The shape is the reason to choose this saucier. Its rounded interior lets a whisk travel through the transition between the base and walls, which is useful when a sauce needs steady stirring. The wider opening also makes it easy to watch a small reduction. Use the two-quart capacity for the quantities you actually prepare rather than treating the pan as a substitute for a larger saucepan.

A saucier is a focused addition if whisked sauces or custards appear often in your cooking. The uncoated stainless surface needs sensible heat control and recipe-appropriate fat; it is not a nonstick coating. Start with low to medium heat and use the flared rim when transferring the finished mixture. The lid adds a covered option, and the manufacturer recommends hand washing to maintain the pan.
