Stainless Steel Double Boiler 32cm, 26 Litre

• Perfect for melting chocolate and preparing delicate custards and sauces
• Strong stainless-steel construction for lasting durability
• 2 Strong handles on each piece of the boiler
• Stainless-steel construction provides even heat distribution throughout the cooking process

In a busy little bakery, restaurant, or café delivering delectable tasty buns and pastries, this Stainless-Steel Double Boiler with Lid is ideal for all your chocolate melting, custard producing, and refining hollandaise sauce needs. With a huge capacity of 26L, you can be confident that this double boiler will easily manage all of these jobs.

While several of the recipes above can be made without a double boiler (also known as a bain-marie), using one helps to keep the heat uniform and moderate, which can help prevent burning. Perfect in a busy environment with lots of orders to keep up to.

This stainless-steel double boiler pan's robust and resilient structure would be at home in any busy industrial kitchen or bakery since it can resist the odd hit and bump without shattering. It's made to withstand the rigours of everyday life in a busy kitchen.

Avoid using the dishwasher if you want to keep your double boiler in good shape for as long as possible. It will damage the material. Always wash it by hand and allow it to air dry completely before stacking it in the kitchen cabinet or storing it until you're ready to use it again.

Because of the stainless-steel structure and flat, solid base of the double boiler pan, the heat is dispersed evenly. The tall sides allow for a larger insert to help keep water away from the contents, allowing you to melt your chocolate without fear of any water from the bottom pan entering the top and ruining the lovely chocolate you've prepared for tempering, as we all know that even the tiniest drop of water can ruin chocolate that needs tempering. The pans' robust aluminium handles make them easy to move around in a packed kitchen and help you keep the pan steady when cooking.

If you've never used a double boiler before, here are some pointers to help you get started:

• Only fill the bottom pan with 1-2 inches of water
• Never let the water touch the bottom of the inserted pan
• Bring the water to a boil and then reduce it to a simmer for better control of the melting/cooking contents
• Continue to stir the contents to ensure everything has combined or melted together properly
