Class Description:
Once you master the basic Mother Sauces, you’ll be able to create a variety of dishes from scratch that will even impress your own Mother. Each sauce - béchamel, espagnole, hollandaise, tomato, and velouté - is the “head” of its own unique family of sauces. You’ll learn the art of creating “smaller” sauces from each of them by using thickening agents such as roux’s and you'll learn how to add herbs and spices. As a bonus, you will also learn a fancy Crème Anglaise. Understanding the basics of these sauces will also assist you when ordering from a menu as well as deciding which wine to pair with your food. Who knew? Oh, that’s right….YOU will….and you’ll be darn impressive to your friends and family too!
