Bains Marie
A bain marie is ideal for keeping large amounts of pre-cooked food warm and ready for plating or service. Much like chafing dishes, a commercial bain marie provides a reliable and consistent heat - it is not designed to cook food, but rather to hold it at the correct serving temperature for longer.
Consider what food you want to keep warm in your bain marie to find the most suitable heat source. Choose wet heat for a more gentle option that reduces the risk of drying food out or sticking it to the pan - perfect for gravy or sauces. Dry heat warms up faster and is more efficient - particularly useful for mobile caterers. if you want to display your food while keeping it at the correct temperature, you may prefer one of these food display cabinets.
