Modern and Classic Sauces

London

Sauces are the foundation of French gastronomy and many other international cuisine styles. In this cookery course, our Chefs will lead you through the preparation of a number of classic and modern variations. You will learn to create an essential range of sauces, stocks and emulsions to complement a wide variety of dishes.

Content for our Modern and Classic Sauces course:

  • Mother sauces (e.g. béchamel)
  • Alcohol-based sauces (e.g. bordelaise)
  • Modern style sauces (e.g. cucumber and mint espuma)
  • Basic stocks (e.g. white chicken stock)
  • Emulsions (e.g. mayonnaise)

No prior knowledge is required for this course, which is suitable for both novices and cooks with some experience. All of the food created during the day is yours to take home with you.

Class structure

Your day will be a mixture of in-kitchen demonstrations performed by the chef who is running the session and hands-on practical cookery, where you are guided by the expert teaching chef. The exact format will vary from class to class depending on the style of cuisine and length of the course.
