Larousse Gastronomique defines a sauce as "a hot or cold liquid either served with, or used in the cooking of, a dish."It certainly helps to add flavour and enhances the dish. On this one day workshop at The Edinburgh New Town Cookery School we will teach how to make a variety of sauces. We will cover stocks, and how to thicken and enrich sauces whether by reduction, using a roux, adding butter or cream. We will also cover emulsion sauces and some sweet sauces. There will be a break for lunch which you can enjoy in our dining room with a glass of wine.
