  • @ancogaming
    @ancogaming Před 5 lety +98

    A tip for you trying this at home: Tomato paste contents a lot of acidity. Make sure to brown it well in the pot to remove some of it and at the same time give your sauce the desired colour. If you want to go full overkill and have the time and fun (and probably money), you can mix your Sauce Espagnole with pre-made brown stock from the fridge or freezer (This channel shows a great video on how to make this stock). Remove the fat on top of your brown stock, add about as much as you have Sauce Espagnole and pass it through a cloth. What you then get is called "Demi-Glace", a shiny, golden brown liquid and is the base of Sauces straight out of heaven.
    It's time-consuming and probably not very effective from a financial point of view but if you've already put in the effort to make stock from bones, it's probably not a bad idea to go all-in and create magic. You can then pour this Demi-Glace (or brown stock, practically any stock or broth) into ice cube trays, throw 'em in the freezer and use it as stock cubes whenever needed. Since stock cubes from the Supermarket (or powder, that Knorr stuff or whatever) are basically 90% salt, you may find that your homemade cubes taste a bit dull in comparison but don't worry, that's normal before you season it. Just add the desired amount of salt, pepper and other spices of your liking when using them as a base for many kinds of sauces or dishes and I guarantee you that you'll only ever use Supermarket stockpot again in case of emergency ;)

    • @harashiSAN
      @harashiSAN Před 4 lety +4

    Hello Stephane. What a superb concept. When I saw the Escoffier book in the first video I watched, I new this was going to be excellent! I'm the proud ownner of "La cuisine d'aujourd'hui et de demain" in a Danish translation from 1945, handed down from my grandmother and aunt, and I've used it periodicly. Unfortunately Denmark is not a good place to get all the ingredients in your local supermerket - we seem to focus more on price than quality…

    I have decided to try and get my head around the whole concept of stock, broth, velouté and Espagnole. It's not easy to understand the differences, or the way each is used differently, but I am making baby steps! I made Espagnole as per this recipe last week, poured over into a muffins tray, in the freezer and then transferred the frozen portions into a freezer bag. A few days later I made a red wine sauce using shalotts, a crushed clove of garlic, balsamic vinegar, red wine, a little stock, a little water and three cubes of Espagnole. There is no doubt that the sauce moved up the scale several notches. Thanks Chef!

    This is a great vid, thanks! I love the historical context. I bet that french king threw a parade for the chef when he first tried that. I watch so many youtube cooking channels and you are really good, man! cheers.
