Four French Sauces.

The average cook knows altogether
too little about sauces. Except for
few ordinary ones like white sauce,
brown gravy and tomato sauce, she
usually regards all sauces as being
quite out OF her province, and only to
be attempted by chefs and high-priced
cooks. But nothing helps a made lover
or an embarrassing dish SO much as a
good sauce does. and the most often
used Of the French sauces are also the
simplest and require no skill at all to
make.
Sauce a rhuile (olive oil sauce). for
instance, which is served with fried
