Class Description: Join us for this class that is part of a series in classic French techniques as our chef instructor teaches you how to create classic sauces at home. A good repertoire of sauces adds flavor and complexity to your dishes and tempting color and texture to your presentations. And most are simple to make. Together we’ll make a vinaigrette, a class pan sauce, mayonnaise, and finally a smooth coulis. You’ll also receive helpful hints for pairing them successfully with meats and desserts.
