    interesting, i have not read one dish here using any of the 5 basic sauces. would be a staple, i would think. Greedo's *might* be, depending on the base for his "mustard sauce".

    anyone?

    • What are the 5 basic sauces?odinie
    • nevermind, googled it
      odinie
    • Béchamel, Veloute, Hollandaise, Brown, and Tomato.madirish

    • i don't think mine qualifiesGreedo
    • What? no Allemande?Mimio
    • I guess thats still a velouté.Mimio
    • I think people prefer things that are derivative of the basic sauces, but with a twist. Cheese sauce is basically

    • a béchamel with an added cheese of choice etc. I think the basic sauces in their purest form might not appeal as much

    • but a "cheese sauce" sucks if it is not based on a proper Béchamel base. otherwise, i totally agree.madirish
    • But let it be known: sauces are the shit.odinie
    • Thats what I meant by derivative. Its based on it, but not the exact same.odinie
    • What? My tomato sauce goes on my pizza. I use the same one for my pasta dishes.ian
