A saute pan has so many applications in a home kitchen. It's wonderful for braising smaller cuts of meat that don't require as much liquid (chicken thighs, short ribs, smaller roasts), and it also makes a great vessel when you're cooking a large amount of pasta and need a place to make the sauce and combine the sauce and pasta. Honestly, it feels like an essential to me.

I own a saucepan, a saucier, a saute pan and a skillet. The saute pan gets the most use out of all of them (and to the person who asked, I always make curry in the saute pan, also use it for pasta and it's where I finish things like alfredo etc. after making the sauce in the saute pan). It's an excellent and very useful pan.

I love my All-Clad sauce pan and my All-Clad saucier. Unless I'm making a lot of sauce at once or heating up a lot of soup, I reach for my saucier most of the time. I use it to make rice, oatmeal, béchamel, melt butter for baking, poaching eggs and gently reheating left-overs. The rounded corners means nothing escapes my spatula when I'm stirring. If my saucier were stolen today, I'd have a new one by tomorrow. My sauté pan, on the other hand, is probably my least used pan. The large surface area is good for reducing sauces and the high sides do help to contain grease splatter when searing meat, but I just don't use it all that often. If it were stolen tomorrow, I could get by without it.

@calmeilles 10 месяцев назад

My sauté pan is without question my most versatile and so also my must used pan. If I had to restock the kitchen it would be what I bought first. Probably more than one. 😀

@kiwifire451 9 месяцев назад

Same! My mom used a sauté pan almost exclusively to cook our dinners, I can’t even think what we used the little pans for. Maybe grilled cheese, or a couple eggs. I genuinely didn’t know this was called a sauté pan! It’s my most used pan by default and I was always stumped why none of my friends seem to have them. Sauté pan island ftw.

@Lughnerson 10 месяцев назад

Sautoir (sautee) = low straight corner sides for flipping. Sauteuse (Skillet, Frying) = low angled sides for sliding out. French skillet has a bit of curve from bottom to sides. Fait Tout (Windsor Pot, medium straight angled sides) - Reduction pan (Sauteuse Evasee, medium sloped angled sides). Then there is the Splayed Sauteuse (wok, chef's pan) halfway between a frying pan and a saucepan. They have a narrow base that heats quickly and a wide top that promotes evaporation.

@williamharberts5514 10 месяцев назад

I have both and use them all the time. If I'm doing something where I will need to reduce the liquid at some point, the saucier is much better than the saucepan, has fewer sticking problems with corners, and has a wider base than my saucepan. The sautee pan cuts way down on grease splatter that I need to clean up, holds more than my same measurement skillet, and probably pours better in most cases. I love both of them.

@Lucysmom26 10 месяцев назад

Same. Both these pans get massive use in my kitchen, I may even prefer them to skillets and saucepans.

@jaycarver4886 10 месяцев назад

20 something years ago I bought a Sitram saucier with Cybernox coating (a space age type material if I recall). It was very expensive but I've used it so much that I've definitely gotten my money's worth. Thing still looks shiny and new and practically nothing sticks. I love that pan - it's my favorite. Get the best pans you can afford...even if piecemeal...and not only will they last but they'll make cooking a joy.

@myview6852 10 месяцев назад

I’ve had an old model, fully clad, cuisinart sauté pan and use it to cook pretty much everything from stews and spaghetti sauce to eggs and Persian rice with tahdig, and even chili! I also use it to caramelize large quantities of onions. This sautee pan, my dutch oven and a small frying pan ( for two or three eggs) are my most used cooking vessels.

A saute pan is a must! My go-to for nearly everything (All Clad 3 qt). Rarely leaves my stove in the cooler/cold months. Great for veggies, greens, browning meat, one pot meals, pasta sauce made right over the browned meat, etc., etc. And less to clean up. Thats a must, too.

@frankunderbush 10 месяцев назад

Personally, after I got a 14inch clad wok it became my most used pan, beating out even the skillet. I use it to stir fry, deep fry, steam, boil, use it as a massive prep bowl, the possibilities are endless. And yes, in a pinch, the flat 7in bottom can also do some searing.

@KnarfStein 8 месяцев назад

A sauté pan isn't some specialised equipment; it should be the main workhorse. A few years ago I purchased a high quality All-Clad multi-layer frying pan. I rarely use it these days, because I'm annoyed at dealing with the liquid droplet bursts and accidental spillage. Instead, I almost always use a sauté pan, or a steeper curved frying pan for some stir-fry.

@deanmar9002 10 месяцев назад

My saute pan gets used the most in my kitchen. I use it to cook my long pastas (linguine, capellini, etc) and it's easy to finish pasta dishes like alfredo in. I also use it for my one pot dinners like chicken-coconut curry or chicken and rice and for braising chicken. It's great for making large batches of carmelized onions and peppers then adding sliced tri-tip for steak and cheese subs. I use it for reducing sauces and I use it to cook burgers and pork chops. And it's great for cooking breaded chicken for piccata or chicken parm. I'm currently using a Tramontina non-stick I got at Costco 2 years ago for $20.00 on sale and it's great. And I prefer a saute pan with a clear lid so I can see what's going on without lifting the lid. Right now (holiday season) is the best time to buy/upgrade your kitchen stuff at Costco. They have lots of smaller and inexpensive things like a saute pan, a Cuisinart immersion blender, toasters, air fryers, etc.

@lgolem09l 9 месяцев назад

The question is whether or not you need something else than saute pans. Definitely the most used tool in my kitchen. I COOULD go for a skillet, but that needs to be a very special application.

@michaelarighi5268 10 месяцев назад

I have a Chantal saute pan. I think it's 12", with a tempered glass lid and double helper handles. It wasn't exactly what I was looking for, but we'd just moved, it was early in the Pandemic, and our new induction cooktop meant our previous cookware wasn't usable. The Chantal pan was the closest I could get. That said, I've found it very useful. This is particularly true when I'm sauteing something bulky that cooks down, like zucchini. I like to do zucchini with bacon and onion and a little garlic. Then a couple of zucchini out of the garden, sliced in coins. A skillet's not big enough and the lid allows me to give everything a little steaming to cook it down evenly. It's earned its place in our kitchen.

@gcvrsa 10 месяцев назад

The entire point of a sauté pan is that the straight sides give a much wider flat on the bottom to fit more food, and the higher sides help contain food when you are using it to...wait for it...sauté. The word sauté means, in French, "jumped", and as a cooking technique, it means to cook the food quickly while moving it around ("jumping" it) to ensure even cooking and quick evaporation of any released liquid. You can see how having higher sides would help contain food while stirring it vigorously. This also means that a covered sauté pan makes an ideal braising device for many preparations, since the straighter sides help to confine the liquid to where the food is, where a skillet would have a lot of room around the edges where the liquid would not be in contact with the food. You should have at least one sauté pan and one skillet/frypan, if you can afford it, as they each excel at a slightly different range of tasks, but if you can only afford one, you should choose depending on what you are most likely to cook in your kitchen, not on the opinions of Internet strangers.

@barcham 10 месяцев назад

Good video, unfortunately it did not address the question posed in the title. In fact, most restaurants I have known the owners of and the chefs who work there, do not have expensive pans such as All Clad because they have to replace their pots and pans quite often and expensive pans would be an expense they do not have the budget for. The same applies to knives. While you may find a sushi chef with very expensive Japanese steel knives, most restaurant kitchens are not stocked with knives costing hundreds of dollars each. Sauté pans and saucier pans can be found at all price points, and you did not address the question whether it is worth it to the average home cook to spend hundreds of dollars on a single pan that they will not really use all that often.

@michaelvilain8457 10 месяцев назад

In the 60s when I took Boy's Chef in Junior High, we had a "spiro blender" in our equipment inventory. It was meant for scraping the bottom and that corner of saucepans with it's conical helix spring at the end of a long handle. They don't make them any more so I prize mine although I found a short handled pale imitation at Sur La Table from France. Making bechamel or hollandaise that doesn't burn is much easier in a saucepan with a Spiral Blender than a whisk. In the desert island test, I wouldn't pick either the saute pan or the Saucier. I'd get a cast iron or enameled cast iron dutch oven. I finally got one after 50 years of doing without and it's changed my beef stew.

@mumimor 10 месяцев назад

A sauter pan is an essential in my opinion -- I've had one as long as I can remember. First a stainless steel one, then a heavy aluminum one that I still have, but now we mostly use one of several copper sauter pans (the original stainless one began to leak, weird). They see a lot of use, and can't be replaced for shakshuka or for risotto, foods we cook on a weekly basis. Recently I used one for Iman Biyaldi and in general they are great for braising. The saucier isn't as much in use, but I wonder if it because it has harsh competition from the wok and the kahari, both of which get a lot of use for Western food as well as Asian.

Once I bought a Le Creuset braiser I got rid of my saute pan. Just preference I guess. Also, a saucier is cool for things like sauces and gravies but they have less contact with the burner than a sauce pan so they do not heat up as quickly. I made boiled eggs in my saucier last week as an experiment and while it worked great the water did take noticeably longer to come to a boil than it does in a similarly sized sauce pan.

I don't have the saucier, but do have the saute pan, and have skillets, sauce pans a 3.5Qt, a 2 Qt, and a 1.5Qt size, the skillets range from cast iron to stainless steel (all clad), carbon steel, and one nonstick, most in the 10" size, with 2 exceptions. I have an 8" cheap cast iron skillet and an 11" saute pan that is stainless, but not all clad (disc on bottom). I use the saute pan all the time, as is my 3.5Qt sauce pan (mostly for boiling water for pasta or heating up soups) and my skillets for mostly sauteing/browning. The saute pan is often how I make one pot meals in. I bought it for sauteing leafy greens as it's less likely to spill out than most skillets due to the higher sides but find it great for making pasta dishes by making the meat based sauce in the saute, add the cooked pasta and a dish is born.

It's news to me that a sauté pan is a "special" pan. A saucier, I can see that being thought of as special to the benighted, but still, you should have at least one in your arsenal of cookware, as they really are superior for making sauces, compared with a regular sauce pan. My All-Clad stainless 2 qt sauté pan is probably the most-used pan in my kitchen. It's perfect for so many things when you live alone and cook for one, and also fits my steamer and bain marie inserts. The only downside to the All-Clad saucier is that it has a unique lid size that isn't shared with any other pans in the line. I didn't hear in the video why the saucier is the way it is, and that's because the larger radius of the bottom is designed to be used with a whisk, which cannot get into the corner of a regular sauce pan. The wider surface area of the saucier also helps to promote evaporation to improve reduction times, whereas a sauce pan's smaller surface area reduces evaporation and is therefore better at maintaining sauces once they are already made.

I've heard you talk about pans and small appliances, but what's the best stove for home cooks?

Try Consumer Reports for this.

The type or stove or cooktop depends on personal requirements. I've used electric (coils & glass top), Gas (Thermador), and now induction. I liked gas....but the cleaning was a nightmare. Life changed but I still love to cook. I now use an induction and I'm loving the versatility of it. The immediate response, the gentile simmers...& ease of cleaning. My 10 year old glass top is a breeze to clean ( Weiman glass cooktop cleaner & Weiman Stainless Steel Cleaner for SS appliances are my choices in the kitchen) 👩‍🍳

Do you live near a restaurant supply store? They typically have fantastic selections and are reasonably priced. I've had my restaurant store cookware for 28 years and it's still in great shape. My kids will fight over my pots and pans when I die

Sauciers! These make egg-based dishes so easy! Custards/ice cream/sauces - all so much easier to NOT SCRAMBLE the eggs!

Never really understood why reviews for cookware sets call the saute pans and sauciers filler pieces. I use mine just as much as my skillets and sauce pans. All are used often enough to justify taking up space in the kitchen.

When talking about pans it would help to know if they can be used on induction stoves. I have a beautiful set of Paderno pans I’ve had for 30+ years which sadly will not work on induction. Can’t imagine the cost of replacement!

Can a Saucier replace a Sauce pan? I say yes! I never purchased a sauce pan, and I'm getting by with my Saucier just fine. I don't know what a sauce pan can do that it can't do, and I like that it has more versatility. :)

@viralnorn9173 10 месяцев назад

All clad is above my price range and a tad overrated. Last year I bought a Made In 7 inch saucier with lid on sale for $130 around the holidays. I am not disappointed in any way with the performance of this pan and plan to buy more of this brand in the future.

I’m a fan of one of your competitors…,that seem to have come to the party a little ahead of you. I’ve purchase the Henkel Nakiri, on their recommendation, which I love. It seems to have the things that you recommend (6.5” blade, 1 7/8” height of blade). It has a equal bevel, so easy to sharpen. Did you test any western takes on Japanese style knives? I also purchased a smaller prep knife (they called “kitchentan”…, or something similar. It’s a 5.5” long, 1.5” high knife, also with a equal bevel, fairly straight edge and sheep’s foot point. Great handle and balance. Don’t know who manufactured it, but it is flagged “Milk Street”. Has turned into one of my favorite prep knives…, if I don’t need the Nakiri. I seldom use my Henkel western chef, utility or paring knives now I have these eastern inspired knives. Shame on me for not checking out the actual Japanese knives that inspired the knives purchased, BUT I am happy and would strongly recommend both knives. (My wife still uses the western knives…, but it is just a matter of time. Once she uses one a few times, we’ll both be reaching for the eastern inspired knives!)😊

I find all these distinctions between pans a bit superfluous. The saucier can easily be thought of as a taller skillet/frypan or even a flat-bottomed wok (albeit stainless instead of the more common carbon steel for woks and quite a bit smaller). The saucepan, to me at least, is a small stock pot and I rarely make sauces in mine. I own a yukihari, a Japanese saucepan, and use it to mainly boil things, make noodle soups, and deep fry. Stop thinking of each pan as a very specific thing and use them to fit your needs, especially as a home cook.

For deeper frying, I like my saucier. I have trouble managing the heat with my Dutch Oven, and the saucier is smaller. This means more heat gets to the oil.
