These aren’t your mother sauces. Level up your cooking game with this illustrated kitchen companion that will help you make any meal unforgettable.
As a renowned chef and iconic star of food television, Richard Blais knows one thing: Sauce makes everything, homemade or store-bought, better!
What’s an ice cream sundae without hot fudge sauce? Or a bowl of spaghetti and meatballs without the perfect marinara? Or salad with no dressing? The real truth is that the sauce you pair with your food has the ability to make or break any meal. As both a competitive culinary contestant on FOX’s Next Level Chef and the winner of Top Chef All Stars as well as serving as a judge on the series, Chef Blais has seen the dish-saving ability of a well placed pool of sauce and the disastrous outcomes of forgetting one.
With 70 mouthwatering recipes, ranging from the simplest vinaigrette to a layered, complex mole, Sauce Life will elevate your everyday cooking, grilling and roasting. Along the way, Chef Blais breaks down a bit of culinary history while sharing some of his personal experiences with food television, cooking in both Michelin-starred restaurants and at home for his kids.
Perfect for everyday readers who want to make their favorite recipes shine like never before, this book will help you level up every meal and have your guests craving more.
