    FAQs

    What are 3 main ingredients for sauce making?

    Typically, the 3 primary ingredients you will find in a sauce are a liquid base such as wine or stock, aromatics and herbs, and dairy. Some sauces only require mixing, and not cooking, so the necessary ingredients vary.

    What are the 5 types of sauces?

    In cooking, there is a term for 5 staple sauces: mother sauce. Mother sauces make up the base of other sauces that build off of them. These sauces are bechamel, espagnole, veloute, hollandaise, and tomato sauce.

    Notes

    • Unsalted butter may also be used, but salt should be added. If using unsalted butter, add ½ teaspoon salt.
    • Other herbs (including dry herbs) can also be used, such as thyme or rosemary instead of parsley. A mix of herbs can also be used.
    • For every 2 Tablespoons fresh herbs, use 1 teaspoon dried herbs.
