Stovetop Double Boiler Pan

This is a small, somewhat shallow pot that sets over a pot on the stove with hooks on the edge to keep it in place. It's different from a double boiler in that a double boiler is a set that fits together. This is just the pot that you can set over any sauce pot that is of compatible size.

How to Use It

Add chocolate, butter, caramel sauce, egg yolks, egg whites, or cream to this pot.  Place it on top of a pot of simmering water. The bowl hooks onto the edge of a pot with the handle setting on the other side of the pot. Sturdy and stable. You can whip contents by hand or with a hand mixer without fear of tipping over. Uses: melting and warming ingredients while stirring or whisking until it thickens or melts, depending on what you are using it with. Melt chocolate or butter.  Warm milk, cream, egg yolks, or egg whites. Use to make Swiss meringue, Curd, Custard, Sabayon, Zabaglione, Pate a Bomb, or Ganache.
