Sauce Making Masterclass

Description

Learn to make delicious sauces in this Sauce Masterclass!

We all know that a killer sauce can make or break a delicious meal. Whether it’s mouth-watering steak dying to be coated in a luxuriously silky Béarnaise or a bowl of ice cream needing to be drowned in a salted caramel sauce, perfecting those all-important sauces is crucial, and we are here to help and guide you in this class.

Sauces are a very important part of any cook’s repertoire as they can form the basis of a huge range of dishes. In this sauce cooking class, you will master an area of cooking that is often considered tricky but really isn’t. We will guide you to knowing how to get the correct flavour, texture and how to select the correct sauce for whatever meal you are making. We will take you through techniques like reducing, straining, making stocks and adjusting and balancing them before serving. We will cover both savoury and sweet sauces.

We will explore a whole host of delicious tips and tricks to enable you to re-create prize-worthy sauces at home and how to transform these fundamental sauce recipes into other fantastic sauces by just tweaking or adding a couple of ingredients. You will also learn what meat, fish or veggies best accompany each sauce and get to taste and feast on these throughout the day. By the end of this class you will have the confidence to add a new dimension of delicious sauces to your dishes taking your cookery to the next level.
