Category : Sauce
It is said that “In the orchestra of a great kitchen, the sauce chef is a soloist”. The sauce can make or break a meal, in fact the whole dinner party so has to be perfect. We have a library of recipes for every occasion. If we don’t have your favourite or suggestion then please join and post it for us to share with the world.
We have an increasing number of sauces in our database such as Bérnaise, Béchamel and BBQ. Not to mention those that are associated with a certain protein. These include Fillet Steak with Mushrooms, Mole Poblano and Rigatoni in Vodka Cream Sauce – Rigatoni alla Bettola. No matter how good the rest of the meal is, without this element being perfect the dish wont work.
