What Are the Basic Sauces Used in Cooking?

Gastronomy

Understanding basic sauces is fundamental to cooking. These 'mother sauces' and their derivatives form the foundation of countless dishes in cuisines worldwide.

The Five French Mother Sauces

1. Béchamel (White Sauce)

Made from butter, flour, and milk, béchamel is the base for cheese sauces, cream soups, and gratins. It's essential for lasagna and mac and cheese.

2. Velouté

Similar to béchamel but made with light stock (chicken, fish, or veal) instead of milk. It creates elegant cream sauces for poultry and seafood dishes.

3. Espagnole (Brown Sauce)

A rich brown sauce made with brown stock, tomatoes, and mirepoix. It forms the base for demi-glace and other rich meat sauces.

4. Tomato Sauce

Beyond pasta sauce, this mother sauce is used in countless preparations. Properly made with fresh tomatoes, aromatics, and herbs, it's versatile and delicious.

5. Hollandaise

An emulsion of egg yolks and butter, hollandaise is served with eggs Benedict and vegetables. Its derivative, béarnaise, accompanies steaks.

Other Essential Sauces

Mastering these sauces opens endless culinary possibilities in your kitchen.
