  • On this week's Taste of Retirement, we're teaching you how to make sauces from scratch, more specifically, how to make the mother sauces. Now there are five of them and the five classical mother sauces are, Veloute, Bechamel, Espagnole, Tomato and Hollandaise. Now, you may or may not have heard of these five classical sauces, but the five classical sauces are the basis to almost all of French cuisine, and most of the cuisine around the world. These sauces are bases for various other sauces, such as a hollandaise sauce can be turned into a bearnaise sauce or a bechamel sauce can be turned into a mornay sauce. With that being said, lets get to the sauces!
    Espagnole sauce recipe:
    3 cups beef stock
    Italian flat leaf parsley
    Bay leaves
    Fresh thyme
    Black peppercorns
    2 oz clarified butter (unsalted)
    3 tbsp all-purpose flour
    Diced celery
    Diced carrots
    Diced onions
    2 tbsp tomato paste
    Bechamel sauce recipe:
    2 oz fat (we used rendered bacon fat)
    2 oz unsalted butter
    4 tbsp all-purpose flour
    2 cups whole milk
    Salt & pepper to taste
    Veloute sauce recipe:
    3 tbsp unsalted butter
    3 tbsp all-purpose flour
    1 1/2 cups chicken stock
    Salt & pepper to taste
    Tomato sauce recipe:
    2-3 tbsp canola oil
    1/2 medium onion, diced
    3-4 tbsp chopped garlic
    28 oz peeled San Marzano tomatoes
    14 oz tomato sauce
    Crushed red pepper
    Fresh parsley
    Oregano
    Fresh Basil
    Salt & pepper to taste
    Hollandaise sauce recipe:
    Fresh lemon juice (1 lemon)
    3 egg yolks
    1 tbsp white wine vinegar
    1 stick unsalted butter (melted)
    Salt & cayenne pepper to taste
    There you have it, the five classical mother sauces! Give them a try for yourself and be sure to check out later videos to come where we take the five sauces and turn them into some savory and delicious meals!

    As a Banquet chef at Montaluce Winery in Dahlonega GA I frequently use all these basic sauces. Thanks for showing the correct way.
    The chef I learned from in Ft. Lauderdale Fl back in 76-78, kicked me in the behind because i made scrambled eggs the 1st time I tried to make a hollandaise sauce. Never broke one after that. Subbed

    Im literally eating two of them right now. I’m from Spain and one of our countries staple dishes is croquetas (croquetas), which are basically a thicker bechamel made with onion and any other ingredient. Most typical ones are made with Spanish ibérico ham, chicken, fish… When you have that dough you make little balls, you fry them and cook them. And I’m eating them with mayonnaise, an emulsion, so it’s other of the five mother sauces

    forgot to tell:
    just remember a report I've seen yrs. ago on german TV.
    There had been an old lady, living in the italian alps in the "village of the centenarians", no more teeth left,
    smoking cigar and being asked how to make "the one an only true tomato sauce".
    She smiled talking of only 4 ingrediants to get in: red wine, lots of onions, garlic and red bell pepper.
    Well, with that recipe she reached the age of being 100 y.o. ! 🙂

    It's "Velouté" sauce. You are the only one pronouncing it wrong. If you can say Espagnole, French word for "Spanish" , you can definitely say velouté. Also, Hollandaise is the French word for "Dutch". Put some respect into the French name of the mother sauces, they have a long and fascinating history ...

      He’s American, probably worked in America most of his life, with Spanish speaking people. So I can see how he’d get “espanol”, since we’re all taught that in America also.
      Velouté is not as common as Espanol in America.
      Don’t be offended, not everyone knows the language, or speaks it, or grew up in that same country.
      Have some patience instead of just invalidating the fact that he’s trying to teach curious cooks how to make these important sauces.
      See the content for what it is, not because he said Veloute wrong-In that sense, you’re actually just being a dick.
      Also, you didn’t educate anyone on how Veloute is actually pronounced, so your comment is just pure Assholery, ignorance, and cockiness.
