Her look at this sometimes-intimidating genre--expressed in clear short bites of information and through dozens of process photographs--delivers the skill of great sauce-making to every kind of cook from beginners to those more accomplished who wish to expand their repertoire. More than 100 recipes for sauces range from standards such as bEarnaise hollandaise and marinara to modern riffs such as maple-rum sabayon caramelized onion coulis and coconut-curry spiked chocolate sauce. An additional 55 recipes use the sauces to their greatest advantage beautifying pasta complementing meat or fish or elevating a cake to brilliant. Modern Sauces is both an inspiration and a timeless reference on kitchen technique.
