Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - The Essence of Menu Choice
When choosing a menu selection, how often do we linger over the sauce description that accompanies a meat or fish dish? Personally speaking ... each and every time. Without trying, it is the prospect of a sauce taste-explosion that swings me - Light Lamb Gravy scented with Lavender Honey has to be more appealing than Lamb in a Tasty Sauce; and so it goes on. This book has revolutionised the way that I choose what we eat. Almost the best way to explore this book is to read through the various sauce recipes and then hope that it goes with what we have in the fridge. A better way is to select the meat or fish that you fancy and then hot-foot it to the clever index that stipulates which sauces go with which meat/fish. The world is your oyster ... Read More:



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Dinner Parties
This book is fine if you have a lot of dinner parties but for the everyday working man and woman, I don't think so. Raspberry vinegar and Vincent sauce? Not quite what I had in mind but as I said, fine for entertaining, well maybe... My copy is about to be discarded.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great Sauces
Having read and used this wonderul book, I was rather suprised to see that 'a reader from faringdon' gave it only 1 star and said "These sauces are far too complicated for everyday use."

Nothing could be further from the truth.


I don't know what this reader expected when she bought a book of Michel Roux's sauce recipes (perhaps she was expecting instruction on how to open a bottle of tomato ketchup or advice on the right amount of hot water to add to gravy granules) but in reality these sauces are simple, uncomplicated and very tasty.


In short, with the help of this book anyone with a modicum of culinary nouse will be able to produce fantastic sauces in less time than it takes our reader from faringdon ... Read More:



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - too complicated
These sauces are far too complicated for everyday use. If you're a busy Mum you don't have the time (or inclination) to boil veal bones and make fresh vegetable stock for every meal. I was very disappointed with the book although I would enjoy eating the end product if someone else had prepared it.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Comprehensive, clear and "saucy"...
A very comprehensive guide to traditional and non-traditional sauces, including dressings, gravies, stocks etc. A simple to understand, no-nonsense approach, well organised and also suggests what food should go with what sauce.
If you want to learn about sauces you needn't buy anything else after this book. Excellent.
