About
Once you master the five mother sauces, you unlock the entire world of culinary sauces.
During this unique cooking class, you'll learn all about the five mother sauces, from which most other sauces are created. You'll explore each of the sauces by preparing five potential dishes, whipping up a smoky Dijon-cheddar Béchamel sauce, creamy garlic basil marinara, white wine Velouté sauce, red wine Espagnole sauce and a sweet egg yolk sauce in the process. You'll leave the class with a whole new set of recipes in your repertoire, as well as with the skills to craft your own delicious sauces for future dishes.
Guests are welcome to provide wine and beer to enjoy during the class.
