Course Overview

The sultry element of classical French cooking - it's in the sauce. Sauce-making is one of the more challenging skills to acquire. Guided by our culinary experts, you will gain hands-on experience with the preparation and typical use of the five basic sauces: Bechamel (cream sauce), Velouté (stock-based), Espagnole (brown sauce), Tomato Sauce, and Hollandaise. After the mother sauces, you will explore compound and secondary sauces. You will finish with an introduction to the contemporary applications of these sauces and their uses in the modern kitchen. Special attention will be given to sauce-making techniques and elements, which include flavour, mouth-feel and consistency.

With the skills gained in this course, you will be able to create exciting and well-made sauces.

It is required that you complete CULG210 and CULG220 before enrolling in this course.
