Who owns a Saucier?

[GadgetGuy]

It looks something like THIS

Mainly, it is used for making sauces or gravies that are made from a roux base. it has rounded corners at the bottom to allow a wire whisk or spoon to get at any unmixed roux mixture & help it to blend easily with the roux for smoother sauce or gravy.

Its a beautiful thing. I don't own one but I would like to. How big is it?

They go from 2 qts. to about 4 or 5 qts. Some are also ridiculously expensive!! The 2-qt size is cheap.

I have & can use these beautiful orange ones pictured above, since they have rounded corners!

Yes, but not these brands.

My parents and in laws gave us Le Creuset several years ago ..

I didn't know what a "saucier" was. Had to look it up. I have saucepans which I find perfectly adequate for my needs.

Like Yorky, we have several sauce pans that work well and are not limited to a specific purpose.

@Shermie Nice! Wish I had room for a dedicated Saucier.
I use my cast iron skillet for a dark roux and one of my stainless sauce pans for a blonde roux.

Any pan or sauce pot will do. As long as it has rounded corners, so much the better. Any port in the storm will do, sailor. Hah!!

Aye, Aye Captain!

Aye, Aye Captain!

Carry on! Hah!!

Too expensive for my liking. I'll stick to my stainless steel milk pan. Just the right size for me and easy to whisk and mix things in.
