A '''double boiler''' is a stovetop apparatus used to cook delicate sauces
{{R from merge}}
such as [[beurre blanc]] or to melt [[chocolate]] without burning or seizing. It is a double-decker [[saucepan]] with an upper vessel that fits into a lower pot.
}}

One fills the bottom with boiling water and places the food to be cooked in the top one. The top pot is kept above the boiling water and heated only by steam, but tight fitting of the two pots prevents steam from escaping.
