  6. When learning to be a chef back in the 1970’s we were taught about the 3 mother sauce, demi-glaze, bechemel and hollandaise, with these 3 sauces there are at least 1000 other derivatives and combinations, there is one more called a veloute, it is made similatly to bechemel but with stock, fish, chicken or game, but is ususally combined with a variation of the others to finish, alot of sauce incorporate cream which is the heavy or whipping cream variety, it when cooked reduces the water out and leaves the butterfat to thicken and glaze the sauces..

    I spent many years as a “Saucier” the sauce chef in a formal french kitchen and prided myself in the fact I could make the best sauce in the kitchen, rivaling the chef himself.
