What is it
PREPARATION OF SAUCES AND ACCOMPANIMENT FOR SERVING VEGETABLE DISHES
Sauces are the height of a chef’s achievement requiring study and practice to master. A great saucier must have a
discriminating palate and the ability to understand how to build a depth and harmony into a sauce.
The formal study of sauces usually begins with the classic French sauces. Today, however, world influences from Asia, Latin
America, Africa and the Mediterranean, along with the public’s appetite for new and exciting tastes, has driven sauces in many different
directions, and brought an array of flavors and endless possibilities to their preparation and pairing.
The French term sauce is derived from the Latin word salus which means salted. For Italians and Spanish people, they call it
salsa. Sauces are meant to enjoy and compliment foods, and make them more interesting to eat. They pull together different elements
of a dish to compliment or provide a contrast in flavors and textures. Some sauces like a classic demi-glace, take days to prepare,
while others, including vinaigrette can be made very quickly. Sauces can be as simple as thickened pan juices, or as complex as a
Mexican mole or an Indian curry.
Sauce preparation used to involve a laborious and time consuming commitment, and while this is still the case for preparation
of classic French sauces, the reality is that in today’s kitchen, very few operations prepare and use them as originally intended. The
reasons these sauces have grown out of favour, include the changing preferences of chefs and the clientele they serve, the time factor
involved in their preparation, and the cost of producing them. In today’s world, food cost economics, the desire for workplace efficiency,
and lack of skill have created convenience sauces, and shortcuts that produce adequate results to time-tested methods that have
evolved over centuries of practice.
History of sauces
Records of sauces dating from around 200 AD and attributed to Apicius, an authoritative text of cooking from ancient Roman,
include highly seasoned preparations of herbs, spices, vinegar, honey and a form of fermented fish sauce called garum.
These sauces were usually prepared with a mortar and pestle and are thickened with pounded rice, nuts or bread. From the
Roman times up to the
Middle Ages, dating around the 14th century, European sauce preparation does not appear to have changed much. Garum, a
fish sauce gave way to vinegar and verjus as a flavouring, and almonds on the other hand, were used to thicken them. During the
crusades, exotic spices from the Middle East came into popular demand. Earlier in the 15th century, chefs began to learn about the
benefits of reducing sauces to concentrate flavors by simmering them on the stove. They also learned about clarification and straining
sauces to get better texture and smoothness.
