bain-marie
A bain-marie, also known as a water bath or double boiler, is a French cooking technique and tool used to gently heat or cook food, or to keep food warm over a period of time. It works by placing a container (pan, bowl, dish, etc.) of food in a larger, shallow container of water, which is then heated. This method ensures indirect heating, leading to slow and uniform cooking. This technique is particularly suitable for delicate dishes like custards, sauces, or melting chocolate where direct heat could cause the food to burn or curdle.
Webster Dictionary
Bain-marienoun
