About Sauciers & Saucepans
Sauciers and saucepans are crucial pieces of cookware to any kitchen setup, helping you prepare your favourite sauces, soups, sides, and more recipes. These pieces of cookware share many similarities with one another, with a few key differences.
Sauciers and saucepans both feature tight-fitting lids and ergonomic stay-cool handles, offering home cooks a comfortable, yet secure grip. Saucepans typically have straight sides, making them perfect for preparing grains and smaller side dishes and sauces. Sauciers, sometimes referred to as a Chef’s Pan, on the other hand, come equipped with curved sides to simplify stirring and whisking.

Sauciers and saucepans serve a number of crucial purposes in everyday meal preparation. While these pieces of cookware are primarily suited for reducing sauces, they can also be used for one-pot soup recipes, side dishes, and when preparing vegetables and grains.
Sauciers and saucepans offer superior heat retention and even heat distribution, exposing all ingredients to a consistent heat source. The saucier’s rounded bottom makes it best suited for sauce-making, though a regular saucepan can also be used for these types of recipes thanks to its taller sides that are great for containing splatters.
