Helpful Hints

1 The saucier is designed to work by having the two paddles rotate in
opposite directions to help incorporate air into the mixture. There
are three different attachments, a gray paddle for frothing, a black
paddle for making sauce, and a white paddle for whipping creams
or mayonnaise.
2 You will notice three controls on your base unit, a Heater Switch, a
Start Button, and a Stop Button. When the heat switch is on, heat will
be delivered through the stainless steel base in the bottom of your
pitcher. The paddles will incorporate the heat into the mixture. Once
the stainless plate reaches a determined temperature, the machine
will automatically shut off.
3 You will obtain better results when preparing sauces by utilizing the
following procedure:
a. When the unit automatically shuts off turn the heat switch off
b. Press the start button and let the Saucier run for 3 – 5 minutes.
This will help to cool your sauce, pudding, or gravy without
causing coagulation at the bottom of pitcher. If you choose
to use your mixture right away, quickly pour your sauce and
use a rubber spatula to scrape the remaining from the bottom
of saucier.
4 When making froth, 1% or no fat milks perform the best. Never use
more than 1 cup of skim milk. Rinse your Pitcher in cold water if
making multiple batches of froth to ensure that you Pitcher does
not start out hot.
5 When making a custard or egg base sauce, always have eggs at
room temperature, and make sure butter is melted, but not hot.
Clarified butter always works best, but is not required. The Saucier
will work fine with substituting margarine, egg substitute, or artificial
sweetener. Please follow the substitution charts on their packaging
for the correct amount to use.
6 You will have tremendous success preparing packaged cook and
serve puddings, as well as pie fillings. Just dissolve the mix in the milk
before placing it in your saucier with the sauce paddle attached.
Follow instructions on part 3 above
7 Instant gravies and sauces work well too. As above, dissolve the
ingredients first and then place in saucier with the black sauce
paddle attached and the heat switch set in the on position. The
same applies for cocoa mixes.
