Can Any One Tell Me How To Make White Sauce, Herb Sauce And Tomato Sauce?

Answer Question

    There are hundreds of recipes for the three sauces that you inquired about but I'll give you the basics and you can vary them on that.

    White sauce is made simply by melting butter in a small sauce pan (be very careful so it doesn't burn). To the melted butter you whisk in a tablespoon or two of flour making a roux. Keep the heat at about medium. Slowly add warm milk to the roux, stirring constantly to avoid lumps. Continue adding the milk to the desired consistency for your sauce. To flavor this you can add salt and pepper (white pepper please) and cheeses such as parmesan (for a Béchamel sauce) or mild cheddar for a sauce to be used in a potato casserole.

    Herb sauces can vary from a white sauce with herbs added (rosemary, tarragon, etc.) to a pesto, which is made in a food processor with basil, olive oil and pine nuts or walnuts.

    Tomato sauces differ with the number of cooks making them. Obviously you need tomatoes, fresh, canned or, as I prefer, the ones in a box from Italy. The box variety has no preservatives and is the closest I have found to home preserves. With a tomato sauce you usually begin with sautéing garlic and maybe some onions in a good quality olive oil. Then you add tomatoes (chopped or pureed), some like tomato paste (for a thicker consistency), others add cooked sausages, ground beef or even pork chops. Out of all the sauces, tomato sauce is the one that should cook the longest.

    Sauces are a cook's "signature" so you will have to try your hand at it until you find your own.
