What is a gravy boat called?
1 Answer
A gravy boat is also called a sauce boat or a saucière. It’s a boat-shaped pitcher from which sauce or gravy is served. The sauce boat sits on a matching plate that is sometimes attached to the pitcher to catch any sauce that might drip when you’re using the vessel.
