CLASSIFY THE VARIOUS TYPES OF SAUCES
Sauces
One of the important components of a dish is the sauce. Sauces serve a
particular function in the composition of a dish. These enhance the taste of the food
to be served as well as add moisture or succulence to food that are cooked dry.
Sauces also enhance the appearance of a dish by adding luster and sheen. A sauce
that includes a flavor complementary to a food brings out the flavoe of the food. It
defines and enriches the overall taste and its texture. Sauce is a fluid dressing for
poultry, meat, fish, dessert and other culinary products.
Sauce is a flavorful liquid, usually thickened that is used to season, flavor and
enhance other foods. It adds:
1. Moisture and richness to the food
2. Introduce complementary and contrasting flavors
3. Enhance the appearance of the food (color and shine)
4. Add texture to the dish
5. Provides interest and appetite appeal
Structure of sauces
1. Liquid (the body or base of the most sauces)
2. A thickening agent
3. Additional seasoning and flavoring ingredients
It is very important that each of these components are prepared and
combined very well in order to make an excellent finished sauce
LEADING OR MOTHER SAUCES are the foundation for the entire classic
repertoire of hot sauces.
5
Bechamel sauce – classic standard white sauce.
1. In a saucepan, heat the milk with the onion cloute, and simmer for 10
minutes.
2. In another saucepan, heat the clarified butter over moderate heat.
3. Gradually add flournto the butter to make a blonde roux. Using a
spoon, mix the roux thoroughly, and cook it approximately 5-6
minutes. Remove from heat, and cool slightly.
4. Remove the onion cloute from the milk.
5. Gradually add the hot milk to the roux, whisking constantly. Heat to a
boil. Reduce to a simmer. Simmer for 20 minutes or until the proper
flavor and consistency are achieved.
6. Season to taste.
7. Strain tohrough a fine chinois into a sustable container. Hold at 135
ºF or above, or cool to an internal temperature of 41ºF or below. Label
date, and refrigerate.
8. Reheat to 165ºF for 15 seconds.
Velouté sauce - The term velouté is the French word for velvety. A light stock (one
in which the bones of the base used have not been roasted previously), such as veal,
chicken, or fish stock, is thickened with a blond roux.
1. Melt the butter over medium-low heat. Add the flour and whisk until fully
incorporated. Cook the roux until it turns a blond color.
2. Slowly add the stock, a bit at a time. Whisk and let it come back to a gentle
boil each time before adding more stock. Add the stock until you reach a silky-
smooth consistency.
3. Once done, season with salt and white pepper to taste. The sauce may thicken
slightly as it cools, so if you’re not planning to use it right away, you may need
to loosen it up with a bit more hot stock before using.
4. Velouté sauce can be used in many dishes, from soups to sauces. It goes
particularly well with poultry and seafood dishes.
Hollandaise sauce – is made from emulsified egg yolks, clarified butter, seasoning,
and often lemon juice.
Emulsion sauces - are made by mixing two substances that don't normally mix. To
do this, you have to break one of them into millions of miniscule droplets and
suspend those droplets in the other substance by vigorously whisking, or better yet,
blending them in a blender or food processor.

Troubleshooting Emulsion Sauces
When an emulsion breaks, how you fix it depends on the sauce.

Espagnole sauce - has a strong taste, and is rarely used directly on food. As a
mother sauce, it serves as the starting point for many derivatives, such as sauce
africaine, sauce bigarade, sauce bourguignonne, sauce aux champignons, sauce
charcutière, sauce chasseur, sauce chevreuil, and demi-glace. Hundreds of other
derivatives are in the classical French repertoire.
Ingredients
• 1 liter (0.3 US gal) brown beef stock
• 2 T butter
• 2 T plain flour
• 1/2 cup of tomato puree or 1T paste.
• 1 onion chopped,
• 1 carrot, chopped
• 1 celery stick chopped (no leaves)
• 1 T oil (or bacon fat if available).
Procedures
1. Heat the butter in the small saucepan and add the flour. Stir until
smooth to make a roux, then cook until a light chocolate brown colour,
stirring constantly to avoid burning. Take off the heat just as it reaches this
colour as it will continue to cook and continue to stir.
2. Allow the roux to cool slightly, (see warning), then add the stock in
batches, stirring each batch until smooth. When the sauce has cooked,
you have made a base velouté.
3. In a medium saucepan, heat the oil or bacon fat and saute the
vegetables until softened. Add the tomato puree and velouté and stir well.
4. Simmer gently for 30 to 45 minutes until reduced to half volume. Stir
occasionally to prevent sticking and skim off any fat or foam when it builds
up.
5. Strain through a sieve and then your Espagnole is ready for use. This
sauce can be used directly, modified into another sauce, or chilled or frozen
for future use.

Tomato sauce -is one of the five mother sauces in classical French cuisine. The
sauce is made by cooking tomatoes in a base of pork fat, aromatics, and stock until
it reduces into a thick sauce. Traditionally, it was further thickened with a roux,
but modern adaptations often skip this step.
Ingredients
• 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
• 1 Spanish onion, 1/4-inch dice
• 4 garlic cloves, peeled and thinly sliced
• 3 tablespoons chopped fresh thyme leaves, or 1 tablespoon dried
• /2 medium carrot, finely grated
• 2 (28-ounce) cans peeled whole tomatoes, crushed by hand and juices
reserved
• Salt
• Spaghetti , cooked al dente
• Whole basil leaves, for garnish
• Grated Parmesan, (optional)
Directions
1. In a 3 quart saucepan, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
2. Add the onion and garlic, and cook until soft and light golden brown, about 8-
10 minutes. Add the thyme and carrot, and cook 5 minutes more, until the
carrots is quite soft.
3. Add the tomatoes and juice and bring to a boil, stirring often. Lower the heat
and simmer for 30 minutes until as thick as hot cereal. Season with salt and
serve. This sauce holds 1 week in the refrigerator or up to 6 months in the
freezer.
4. When ready to use, the cooked pasta should be added to a appropriate
amount of sauce. Garnish with basil leaves and cheese, if using
Variation of Sauces
1. Hot sauces- made just before they are to be used.
2. Cold sauces- cooked ahead of time, then cooled, covered, and placed in
the refrigerator to chill
THICKENING AGENT
A thickening agent thickens to the right consistency. The sauce must be thick
enough to cling lightly to the food.
Starches are the most commonly used thickeners for sauce making. Flour is
the principal starch used. Other products include cornstarch, arrowroot, waxy
maize, pre-gelatinized starch, bread crumbs, and other vegetables and grain
products like potato starch and rice flour.
Starches thicken by gelatinization, which is the process by which starch
granules absorb water and swell many times their original sizes.
Starches granules must be separated before heating in liquid to avoid
lumping. Lumping occurs because the starch on the outside of the lump quickly
gelatinizes into a coating that prevents the liquid from reaching the stach inside.
8
Starch granules are separated in two ways:
• Mixing tha starch with fat. Example roux
• Mixing the starch with acold liquid. Example slurry.
Types of Thickening Agent
• Roux
• Cornstarch Slurry
• Whitewash
• Liaison
• Arrow Root
• Beurre Manie
• White Roux
• Blond Roux
• Brown Roux
https://theculinarycook.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/how-to-make-roux.jpg
A white roux retains its initial color and is only cooked slightly to remove any
starchiness from the roux. A blonde roux is caramelized slightly to give it a darker
blonde color. A brown roux is cooked until almost burnt; highly caramelized, it also
has a nice nutty flavor to it.
A. Fat
✓ Clarified butter. Using clarified butter results to finest sauces because
of its flavor.
✓ Margarine. Used as a substitute for butter because of its lower cost.
✓ Animal fat. Chicken fat, beef drippings and lard.
✓ Vegetable oil and shortening. Can be used for roux, but it adds no
flavor.
2. Cornstarch Slurry is the same as a whitewash, except cornstarch is used
instead of flour. Cornstarch is mixed with water and then
added to the soup/sauce. Never add dry cornstarch to a
product that needs thickening, as you will produce lumps
that will be next to impossible to use. The proper technique
is to add a cold slurry to a hot liquid while stirring
constantly. Starches begin to gelatinize around 60C (140F),
so don’t be alarmed when you don’t notice immediate
thickening action. A common mistake is thinking there isn’t enough slurry
and adding more, resulting in an incredibly thick liquid once the starches do
gelatinize.
A cornstarch slurry is preferable over a whitewash. The thickening power is more
prominent which results in less flavor loss. Cornstarch slurries tend to separate from
fats and other liquids if kept for long periods.

3. A whitewash thickening agent is a mixture of flour
and water that has been combined prior. The mixed
liquid is then added to a soup/sauce. While it works
well, the combination of water and flour produce a
very flavorless thickener. A whitewash also has a risk
of separation with what it was thickening. A
whitewash is best used when you need to thicken a dish that is to be served
immediately and can withstand a hit in the flavor department. Overall, a
whitewash is a cheap, fast solution for thickening that can be used in a pinch.

• To balance the flavor and seasoning of your sauces consider all the
basic taste sensations
• Salt is the most primal taste and reduces bitterness
• Bitterness is derived from herbs and spices including tarragon, sage
and peppercorn
• Sweet is added with the addition of sugar, butter, and cream
• Butter also adds a savory sensation
• Acidity lifts and lightens the flavor of the sauce on the tongue; a
little wine vinegar, wine, or lemon can do the trick
• Umami is the savory taste found in meats, poultry, fish, chees e,
tomatoes, and mushrooms
10
Consistency & Texture
• Thin sauces release aromas that are more immediately noticed by the
sense of smell
• Thickening agents obstruct the flavor of a sauce requiring more salt
and seasoning
• Thickened sauces tend to linger on the tongue longer and prolong the
flavor better than thin sauces
Too Thin? - If the consistency of a sauce is too thin or too weak it can be
adjusted by reducing the sauce on the stove. Other alternatives include
adding more thickening agent, cream, a swirl of butter, or a liaison of egg
yolk and cream.
Too Thick? - If it is too thick it can be thinned with a little water, stock or
other liquid. Be careful to taste and adjust seasoning. Thinning with water
will dilute the flavor so it is normally not recomm ended except in the case
where it may be too intense. Sauces that sit in a steam table will evaporate
over time becoming too thick or salty; in this situation it may be
appropriate to adjust with water.
